It turned out to be a fire protection facility in the Forbidden City. A long time ago, people came up with a way to place a bronze sculpture in front of the door and to save the fire. As long as the water is always filled, the fire can be fired at any time when the fire occurs. At that time, people called the big tank "the sea of ​​doors." It is not difficult to understand literally. "Jinghai" is the sea in front of the door. They believe that there will be no more fires when there is a sea in front of the door. Therefore, the big tank is also called "Auspicious Cylinder" and "Tai Ping Cylinder".
In the Qing Dynasty, the copper cylinders in the palace were managed by the House of Representatives. Every morning, the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs ordered the miscellaneous service to drown the water from the well and fill all the large tanks with one load and one load for fire prevention. Every year in the light snow season, the eunuch in the palace will put a special cotton sleeve on the copper cylinder jacket, and a thick cylinder head. At the same time, a pot of charcoal fire was placed in the white marble base under the copper cylinder, and it was guaranteed to burn around the clock. In this way, the double water retention measures prevent the water in the cylinder from freezing. Warm work has been going to end until the second year of horror, when the earth rejuvenates, the climate has gradually warmed up, and the eunuchs will remove the cotton jacket and remove the charcoal fire. In order to ensure that there is enough water in the palace for fire fighting, many large tanks were set up in the palace.
The original intention of setting up a large number of copper cylinders in the palace was to prevent fire, but its actual value was not limited to fire protection, but it was also an indispensable display in the palace hall and courtyard. The texture, size and number of auspicious crocks in the palaces of the Qing Dynasty depend on the specific environment. The sheet metal bronze cylinder has the highest grade, so it is necessary to set it on the side of the Taihe Hall, the Baohe Hall, and the front of the red wall outside the Qianqing Gate for the “Yumen Listening to the Governmentâ€.
