Was it because Emperor Jiaqing insisted on the concept of "successor" that the Qing Dynasty was destroyed?

The most fundamental reason for the demise of the Qing Dynasty is the decay of the Qing Dynasty, and Emperor Jiaqing's insistence on the idea of "successors" is only an accelerator for the demise of the Qing Dynasty. Then why is it that the most fundamental reason for the collapse of the Qing Dynasty is the decay of the Qing Dynasty?

First of all, the truly powerful people in the Qing Dynasty were thinking about how to protect their land, or how to extract land from ordinary people, without really thinking about the development of the national economy and the prosperity of the people. For example, Cixi actually used military pay to organize her own birthday party. Although some people say that the money is not a military salary, she really only thinks about herself when the country is in danger. If she invests the money in her salary, will it be more meaningful than her birthday?

In addition, it was the corruption in the Qing Dynasty that derailed China from the world, because the emperor at that time refused to leave the British mission thousands of miles away and implemented a closed-door policy, which made China seem to others to have already completed the industrial revolution period, or a natural economy woven by men and women, which made China's economy lag far behind the world, economically backward and naturally backward in military science and technology. If you lag behind, you will be beaten and you will be invaded. Therefore, the decline of the Qing Dynasty doomed the demise of the Qing Dynasty. Then why did Emperor Jiaqing insist on the idea of "successor" as an accelerator for the downfall of the Qing Dynasty?

Because Jiaqing played a connecting role, he not only inherited the prosperity left by Qianlong, but also assumed the problems left by Qianlong. His inspiration is to solve the problems left by Qianlong, solve them and continue the prosperous times. Unfortunately, Jiaqing did not dare to overthrow the old system of his ancestors step by step because of the idea of "successors", and missed the best opportunity for reform. Therefore, Jiaqing insisted on the idea of "successors" as the basis for the collapse of the Qing Dynasty.
