The Qing Dynasty flourished for eight years. It was the hottest in China that summer, and the time was 1743. The high temperature covers almost half of China, and the enthusiasm in hot summer makes people unable to entertain. According to historical records, on the third day of June, that is, on July 25, Beijing was facing a hot summer.

Tianjin has been extremely hot since May. The soil and rocks have been scorched, and the tiles on the roof have been melted. Many people have been killed by the heat. Fushan, Shanxi: It is very hot in May in summer, and people who walk on the road often die suddenly, especially in Beijing, and those who do business in Beijing are also hot to death.

Shandong Gaoqing: This year, there was a drought of thousands of miles. The electrical appliances in the house are very hot, and many trees are killed by the heat. The worst thing at that time should still be Beijing, where there was a French missionary named A.Gaubil, whose Chinese name was Song Junrong. He was in Beijing that year. Later, he wrote in a letter sent to Paris that the old man in Beijing said that he had never seen such a high temperature as in July this year.

How many people died of heatstroke in Beijing at that time? Song Junrong counted the information reported by court officials at that time, saying that 1 1400 people had died of heatstroke in urban and suburban areas. It is said to be very hot, but what is the specific data? According to the current climate research conversion, it is found that the temperature from July 20 to July 25 is above 40 degrees, and it has reached 44.4 degrees on July 25.

Seeing this, some curious netizens may want to ask, it was eight years of Qianlong. Since it is so hot in summer, why didn't Qianlong die of heat? Asking such a question is completely forgetting the identity of the ancient emperor. It must be the working people who died of heatstroke. Why can't the emperor prevent heatstroke and cool down? Not to mention the summer resort, let's say that in the palace, there are actually ways to cool down, just like Qianlong, who has this magic weapon to cool down, that is, dragon skin, which insulates and cools down. As long as it is hung on the palace gate, there are two worlds of fire and ice outside and inside.

In addition to hanging dragon skin, there is another way, that is, drinking soup. At that time, the physician would specially give the emperor some soup for heatstroke prevention, which could not only prevent heatstroke and cool down, but also maintain his body. Of course, this method can't achieve real cooling. In the palace, perhaps the most effective thing is to use ice cubes.
