Chapter 2030 Six Volumes 85 (5 More)
When Wanxi was told by the emperor, her eyes couldn't help getting a little wet.It turned out that not only she herself wished to have a son for the emperor, but the emperor also hoped that she would have a boy this time.

But it's still early in the month, and Wanxi doesn't want to make herself think about giving birth to a prince all day long - if the princess is born at that time, wouldn't she be disappointed and feel ashamed of the new daughter?

Therefore, before giving birth, Wanxi always controlled herself, and didn't tell herself to think in this direction all day long; she was not even allowed to ask Xiaogui for her pulse to feel for her male or female pulse.

Wanxi sniffled and changed the subject, "...I remember, the Ruyi Pavilion presented the painting "Thundering the Tiger" painted by Castiglione, which is the scene of the emperor personally fighting a tiger in Mulan."

When it comes to Manchu hunting tigers, it’s not about showing off one’s prestige or personal heroism; Manchu fighting tigers actually reflects the tradition of Manchu hunting together throughout the ages—Manchus always fight tigers in a small team of three.There is a clear division of labor between the three: the three hold "tiger guns" and approach with horns.One person is in the middle to attract the tiger's attention, and the other two can attack from the weaker defenses such as the ribs and tail.

Moreover, the tiger spear is a weapon specially invented by the Manchus for fighting tigers: it has a long handle and a rhombus-shaped head, so that the barrel of the gun can separate a sufficient distance between people and tigers, and the head of the gun can effectively stab the tiger. (This tiger gun is available in the Forbidden City and Shenyang Forbidden City)
Because of this kind of teamwork, it is almost common for Manchus to fight tigers. Everyone is not afraid of tigers and cheers when they see tigers.

And such a traditional three-person team system has gradually evolved into the Eight Banners system surrounded by left and right wings.

Dahu Erlang, who holds the tiger gun, was incorporated into the "Tiger Gun Battalion" separately. He was once the most elite and most mysterious team in the Eight Banners Guards. (In the future, relatives will go to the Forbidden City to see "Qianlong's Assassination of Tigers", and if someone says "spear", you can correct it as "tiger spear". And the emperor has two guards, not just to protect the emperor, It’s the tradition of the Manchus’ “Three People Hunt the Tiger”.)
Since the emperor said that he would personally take the baby to fight tigers in the future - he would naturally take the Tiger Spear Battalion with him.In other words, the most elite and most mysterious imperial guards will guard the child.

Wanxi couldn't help thinking of the famous Chahar tribe in Mongolia.That is the evolution of Genghis Khan's preference for his youngest son, Tuo Lei, and giving Tuo Lei his personal servants and bodyguards.
.
Seeing that Wanxi understood, the emperor snorted softly, "Then continue to embroider. In the future, when the master takes our child to hunt tigers, let him wear these socks!"

Only then did Wanxi burst out laughing, and took back the socks, trying to look at them herself.

Not to mention - after all, it is a bit like a cat.

Wanxi said, "It's fine to be like a cat. When you are hunting tigers outside, but you are cute and cute like a cat at home, that is a good son of a slave."

The emperor also laughed, "Original! The cat has one trick more than the tiger. If the cat and the tiger fight, the tiger may not be the opponent."

The two talked and laughed, but they also felt that the time was short instead.

Wanxi remembered hanging the stack of books held by the emperor, thinking that the emperor was going to review the playbook, so she stopped talking.Leaning on the kang, with a quilt on his back, he continued to embroider; the emperor sat cross-legged on the kang table and flipped through the book.

But the emperor smiled while watching, and that smile couldn't stop laughing.

Wanxi couldn't help but quietly raised her eyes and looked over - it shouldn't be the play book, otherwise how could the emperor laugh like this?
