After Qianlong took the throne, why did he still refuse to give power to Jiaqing?

This is because Qianlong was still relatively energetic at that time, and he attached great importance to power, so it was difficult to completely let go of power.

Because Qianlong felt that Jiaqing did not have any ability to rule his country, he refused to let go of power.

After Qianlong's abdication, the reasons why he refused to give power to Jiaqing are: First, because Qianlong did not abdicate voluntarily, because he still had an attachment to power. Second, all the capable sons born to Qianlong died, and Qianlong wanted to take this son with him.

Because Qianlong has been in power for too long, he has become accustomed to the feeling of controlling the world, so he still holds power in his own hands.

Knowing that Jiaqing was mediocre, Emperor Qianlong still passed the throne to him, all because although Qianlong lived a long life and had civil and martial arts, his sons failed to inherit these two advantages. Among the many sons, those who have the ability to be favored by themselves all die first; There are also sons who do not like themselves; In his old age, Lichu was only fifteen elder brother Yongyan, barely in line with his own wishes.

Emperor Qianlong was a long-lived emperor in history, at the age of 89; Such an age, among the many emperors of the feudal dynasty, can rank first. At the age of 89 alone, he was able to boil many of his sons to death, which was also an important reason why he didn't have much choice when he became a prince.

We only know the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty, but we ignore the merits of the middle successor, Yongzheng. If it weren't for Yongzheng's hard work, he would never have let Qianlong live so comfortably in his life. Emperor Qianlong compared with his grandfather Kangxi everywhere, but his sons lost in a mess.

Kangxi's sons lived a long life, and they had many capable sons; Most of Qianlong's capable sons died young, and even his incapable sons did not survive much in his old age.

Emperor Qianlong's favorite heir, as if he was cursed, always died in the process of growing up. For example, his sister-in-law Yonglian died of smallpox when he was ten years old; The fifth elder brother Yongqi was also valued by Qianlong, but unfortunately after being named the prince, he died in only one year.

The life expectancy of the ancients was not as long as we are now, and Qianlong's age of 89 is definitely a miracle. Even if many sons don't die young, they can't survive their father Qianlong. Jiaqing was able to succeed to the throne and won in Qianlong's longevity, and when it was time to establish the prince, among the living sons, there was only the fifteenth elder brother Yongyan with mediocre qualifications, who was still able to take on the throne and be put on the throne.

Although Emperor Jiaqing became the emperor, because of his mediocre qualifications, the Qing Dynasty fell step by step. If there is a prince who is more capable than Yongyan, I think I am conceited Qianlong and will not let Yongyan succeed to the throne.

Mainly because Qianlong lived too long, many of his sons died, although Jiaqing was mediocre, but he was also the best of his remaining sons.

Because Qianlong had no better choice, when he was old, the remaining sons were either mediocre or older, and only Jiaqing was more suitable, so the throne must not be passed to him.

Qianlong's choice of heirs is also well understood, he chose among the few sons, but he is either too young or has a bad character, and Yongyan is not bad, he is mature and stable and not arrogant, Qianlong chose him as the emperor.

Is Lao Tzu's heroic son the same, there is no better one.

This is because Emperor Qianlong has no other better choice, Emperor Qianlong is the longest-lived emperor in history, Emperor Qianlong originally considered the son born to Empress Xiaoxian, but unfortunately died early, and then considered the fifth elder brother Yongqi, but unfortunately also died young, Jiaqing is the living son of Emperor Qianlong.

Qianlong himself did not want to abdicate, but the succession time could not exceed Kangxi, so he had no choice but to abdicate.

Emperors of all dynasties and generations have always been obsessed with the throne, so even if Qianlong wants to really pass on the throne to his children, he needs to be investigated.

Emperor Qianlong's abdication was a last resort, in his heart, he did not want to abdicate, but at the beginning of the succession and in many later things, he explained that he wanted to give up the throne after sixty years on the throne. It's like, the cow blows out, and you can only do it hard. But even if Qianlong abdicated, the power of the DPRK and China was still firmly in his own hands.

Emperor Qianlong is only called to return to the government, but in fact he is not abdicating, knowing that he has changed the pro-government into "training the government".

The "legal status and privileges" stipulated by Emperor Qianlong on the occasion of his return to power provided a guarantee for the fulfillment of his life as emperor.
