It was very hot when he died.

It's winter now, and friends in the north know how low the outdoor temperature is. Even people in Mohe wear several catties of cotton-padded clothes and trousers every time they go out. In summer, the friends in the south will also be sunburned and don't want to go out, knowing that the spicy temperature can almost scorch people's skin. So no matter where we live, we all feel the pain caused by cold and overheating, which is really helpless. Hot and cold weather did not begin in modern times. According to historical records, the hottest summer in history occurred during the reign of Qianlong. So how hot is it this summer?

In the summer of the eighth year of Qianlong, people all over the country were sunburned like ants on hot bricks, which soon caused great panic. You know, it's easy to die when the weather is too hot, and heatstroke is everywhere. At this time, officials from all over the country frequently described to Ganlong how hot their area was, which made Ganlong very anxious, but he could do nothing. At that time, Qianlong also thought about offering sacrifices to heaven, but it was useless.

Soon, the hot weather caused a heat disaster and many people died one after another. Among them, fat people die more. In June, even the stones were burned. The temperature this summer is about 44 degrees, which is beyond people's tolerance. We can be depressed and cry when it is over 30 degrees in summer, but fortunately, we can still eat popsicles at home after work or after school. We can imagine what kind of disaster it was in ancient times when there was nothing. According to statistics, more than 10,000 people died that year because of the hot weather, not to mention other areas. At that time, many people who went to the capital on business never came back.

If it is something that people can control, such as banditry, it is easy to say that natural reasons such as the weather can't solve it. This summer, because of the hot weather, the disaster brought to the world is not only the death of people, but also the scorching of trees and flowers, and the sun has damaged most crops. Electrical appliances placed indoors are hot when touched. Noble families can also put ice cubes in their houses to relieve the hot weather, but ordinary people have this treatment. You know, ice was not a common item of cabbage and potatoes at that time, and it was only for the rich.

What kind of scene can even metal bake? At least we didn't see the modern-born, but there was this sign in the summer of Qianlong eight years. It is conceivable how happy we are now in a technologically advanced life.
