Introduction: There have been wild history rumors that Qingren Zong Jiaqing died of lightning strikes, in other words, he was killed by thunder. This method of death is also strange, if there is such a thing, the Jiaqing Emperor must be the only emperor in the history of Chinese civilization who died of lightning. Is this the truth? It is not easy for future generations to make a judgment, but it is also quite interesting to say, and the theory of thunder and lightning is not one, but three. Which three? You hear it.

The Mystery of the Cause of Death of Emperor Qingrenzong Jiaqing: Was it a normal illness or was he killed by lightning?

The first theory was spread in the late Qing Dynasty, saying that Jiaqing had a "longyang fetish", was very fond of a small eunuch, and had been messing around for a long time, which made the ministers who knew about it dissatisfied, and some people played it, but it was rejected and reprimanded by Jiaqing. Later, Jiaqing set up the palace in the "Smoke Wave Zhishuang Hall", and there was a small building behind the hall, called "Yunshan Resort", which became a place for Jiaqing and the little eunuch to meet after it was built. One day, when the two were Qingqing and me, suddenly the wind was fierce, followed by lightning and thunder, Jiaqing was just about to get up to watch, suddenly a lightning bolt fell from the air, and then a fireball shattered the window ledge and flew into the room, and then exploded on Jiaqing's body, and the True Dragon Prince was burned to death.

Although this statement is very absurd and bizarre, it was widely circulated in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and many storytellers made it into a paragraph to perform at the Tianqiao Tea House, which added a lot of wind and moon, which made people angry and funny after listening to it.

The second theory is also quite bizarre, saying that Jiaqing led the Manchu Minister and the Eight Banners to hunt horses in the Mulan Paddock, but for several days in a row, in addition to hitting some hares, even some roe deer were not hunted. Jiaqing was very disappointed, with a depressed look on his face, and then issued an edict, deciding to end the autumn hunt early.

When the group beat the horse back to the house, suddenly the fierce wind raged, thunder and lightning, suddenly heard a thunderbolt sound, a lightning bolt came from the air, everyone was shocked, and then look at the Jiaqing Emperor, even people with horses, have long been killed under the thunder. The crowd was terrified and wept.

The third theory is more stable and not as exaggerated as the first two. It is said that Jiaqing was infected with wind and cold when he was hunting in the summer resort Mulan autumn, so he was bedridden to recuperate, but it was not a big problem, and his spirit was still good. After a day of reading the recital, I felt tired, so I opened the window to look at the rain outside. When he went to the window and held the window sash to watch the rain, suddenly a bolt of lightning came with a loud thunderclap, and the little eunuch stepped forward to see that the Jiaqing Emperor was already lying on top of the window, breathing heavily. Afterwards, it was confirmed that the emperor was "electrocuted" and died.

After reading the above three legends, how do you feel, do you think it is quite interesting? It is common for people to swear to heaven that if they do something immoral, they will be killed by lightning. I don't know if Jiaqing did this, but if so, this one is really lacking in morality.

Of course, the above is only what Ye Shi said, and in the main history, Jiaqing died suddenly, which was a normal illness, and it was also recorded in the history books. But whether or not Zhengshi said something nonsense, only those who wrote the history books know.
