Yabilong Waist Sabre, Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, with a sheath length of 94 cm and a blade length of 60 cm. The old collection of the Qing Palace
The scabbard is wooden, covered with green shark skin, and the purple cloth knife cover. The handle is made of a ivory plate made in Xianfengnian, with the inscription on one side: “An exquisite knife made in the 13th year of Qianlong was given to Fu Heng, the bachelor of economics and strategy, to use it in Jinchuan”; The other side is engraved with the words “Xianfeng” and “Shenfeng holds victory”
The earliest holder of this sabre was Ya Bilong, one of the four ministers of auxiliary politics in the early years of Kangxi. The sabre was named after people. After the death of Yabilong, the sword entered the palace
In the 12th year of Qianlong’s reign (1747), the first Battle of Jinchuan broke out, and Ne Qin, who was then the grand master of the Baohe Temple and the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and other important positions, led the troops to the battle as a minister of management, and was defeated. Qianlong angrily seized his position, sent a scholar Fu Heng to replace him, and gave him the right to stop him. In the fourteenth year of Qianlong (1749), Emperor Qianlong ordered Fu Heng to use the Yabilong knife in front of the army to correct Ne Qin
In 1851, the revolution of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom broke out, and Emperor Xianfeng sent Saishan’a, a senior scholar, to lead the army for the imperial envoy. Before his departure, he was given a special sabre to deter Bi Long to strengthen the army. However, Yabilong Dao did not bring a change in the war situation. Soon, Saishana was also taken from his post because of his bad command
