The Emperor Qianlong connected it with the dove stick of the Han Dynasty, and wrote a poem made by the emperor, which was engraved on the upper edge of the axe and inlaid on the wooden seat with silver characters. Emperor Qianlong attached great importance to this device. In addition to creating many imperial poems for it, he ordered people to imitate it with Hotan jade more times and make it into a walking stick to reward the elderly over 70 years old.
