Forty-one years after Qianlong's death, the Opium War broke out, why did the Qing Dynasty decline?

Interesting answer: Because the Qing Dynasty has always been going downhill, but when it was going downhill, the Qianlong Emperor did not know it.

Good face of the old man

The Qianlong Emperor was very special among all the emperors of the entire Qing Dynasty, and the special point was not that he lived a long life, nor that he had been emperor for three years, but because of his good face.

Forty-one years after Qianlong's death, the Opium War broke out, why did the Qing Dynasty decline?

In real history, the Qianlong Emperor was slightly dissatisfied with Hezhen at the beginning, and this was the case

Some were not satisfied, and were beaten back by the three words of The Emperor, then

How did He yan turn the crisis into safety with these three words?

The reason is simple, He Yan is constantly patting the Qianlong Emperor's ass, and makes the Qianlong Emperor think that he is a perfect old man.

Here we need to extend another small topic, what is called the perfect old man?

To put it simply, it is the perfect old man, and this so-called perfect old man often refers to no fault, no defects, simply by virtue of his own ability, he has achieved the world invincible, unparalleled in the world.

If you have studied philosophical theories or the most basic paradox problems in college, you will find that the perfect old man does not exist at all, and if there is a perfect old man, then the philosophical system will completely collapse.

But Qianlong's grandfather certainly had not learned, and at the same time, the Qianlong Emperor was very fond of others calling himself a perfect old man.

Good face, can not solve the fundamental problem

Forty-one years after Qianlong's death, the Opium War broke out, why did the Qing Dynasty decline?

The Qianlong Emperor's good face reached the extreme, but in the face of the state's major decisions and in the face of the state's major policies, a good face could not solve any problem.

Everyone knows that the Qianlong Emperor also likes to travel around, and the Qianlong Emperor also likes to observe the people's feelings, but because of the good face of the Qianlong Emperor, it has laid a foreshadowing for the Qianlong Emperor, which is a fatal foreshadowing.

The good-looking old man of Qianlong must not be able to see the suffering of the people, so every time the Qianlong Emperor went down to Jiangnan, all the suffering and suffering people along the way were rushed to the side, which would only let the Qianlong Emperor see the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty.

And all this has been recorded in the history books, so in the history of the Qing Dynasty will also give us such an impression,

The Qianlong Emperor was still very good, and the Great Qing was still very good.

The downhill road of the Qing Dynasty

Of course, we can say that because the closed country was reorganized into such a way for the Qing Dynasty, but the closed countries of the Ming and Qing dynasties had their advantages and disadvantages, we put this point of view aside for the time being, and simply talked about the years when the Qianlong Emperor was in power.

Forty-one years after Qianlong's death, the Opium War broke out, why did the Qing Dynasty decline?

To put it very simply, the Qing Dynasty had already gone downhill when the Qianlong Emperor was in power, but the Qianlong Emperor would not let the historians write like this, and the historians did not dare to rebel against the qianlong emperor's thoughts, and naturally it became a meeting of hello and hello everyone.

Slowly everyone will have such a cognition, and the Qing Dynasty is still very good.

But at this time, the Manchu Qing had already decayed and had fallen, and what was even more fatal was that the Manchu Qing did not know the impending crisis at all when it was down, nor did it have the slightest sense of resistance.
