What is the implication of the auspicious case of carrying a treasure bottle in ancient tradition?

Since the Ming dynasty, whenever the emperor has a major celebration, he always likes to use some elephants in ceremonial ceremonies. They are also used to drive chariots and transport treasures. In Beijing, there are staff who specially train elephants for the emperor, and they are managed by Royal Guards. The Qing Dynasty was managed by Yisheng. Elephants and mahouts live in elephant training rooms on both sides of Xuanwu Gate (now Lai Xiang Street). Elephant is regarded as a symbol of strength because of its tall figure, gentle personality and considerate personality, which can help people to complete intense work. Its hooves are thick and steady, so in the eyes of feudal rulers, it seems to be a symbol of stability and social stability. An elephant carries a treasure bottle on its back, and some bottles contain whole grains, which means peace and prosperity. Because the word "image" and "scene" are homophonic; The word "bottle" in Aquarius is homophonic with the word "ping" in Taiping; "Tai" is synonymous with "Da" in ancient Chinese characters. The Aquarius on the elephant's back is very big, so it should be called the big vase or the Artest vase. In this way, "too much like a bottle" becomes an auspicious pattern of "too much like a peace".

In front of the emperor's throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City, there are a pair of Aquarius in the shape of mascots. There are also white marble carving bottles on both sides of Shinto in Ming and Qing emperors' tombs.
