As a generation of emperor, Huang Taiji married two widows and remarried his concubine

The emperors in the early Qing Dynasty, their marriage was full of political color. Nurhaci’s wives and concubines are found in historical records and a total of 14 people. The marriage of seven wives and concubines was the result of political alliances. The rest of the wives and concubines are mostly from different tribes. The political marriage between Manchu and Mongolia prevailed in the early Qing Dynasty.

According to the second volume of the Four Book of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty had seven Mongolian wives, accounting for about half of the total number of concubines; There are six wives, accounting for one third of the total number of concubines.

Among them, the marriage of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty and Emperor Taiji was the most peculiar. There are fifteen famous concubines in Huang Taiji. Among the fifteen concubines, seven are from the Mongolian grasslands. Among them, the most distinguished "Chongde Five Palace Empresses" are all Mongolian women, and two of them are widows. There are also three aunts and nieces from Manggusi of Horqin Department who married Huang Taiji together. The marital wonders of Huang Taiji don't stop there. He also remarried his concubine Borzigit who had given birth to two daughters.

Then, why do you marry two widows for the emperor’s Emperor Taiji? It turns out that the identities of these two women are very special. They are the wives of Chaharlin Danhan, the leader of the Mongolian tribes. They went to Huang Tai Chi after Lin Dan Khan's death. They were in Tian Cong for the 8th year and Tian Cong for the 9th year. They were taken into the palace by Huang Taiji as their own.

In 1632 (sixth year after Jin Tiancong), Huang Taiji personally led the Eight Banners army and the Mongolian tribes to attack the Chahar army under Lin Dan Khan. Under the fierce fighting, Lin Dan Khan suffered most of the casualties. Lin Danhan fled to Qinghai grassland after his defeat. Two years later, in 1634, Lin Dan Khan, who had resigned from his family, died of illness in Qinghai. His men gradually fell apart. His blessings also began to find their new home.

In August 1634, one of Lin Danhan’s concubine Dou Tumen Fujin, under the escort of an escort named Donikuluk, led a group of people to Huang Taiji’s military camp, expressing their submission and choosing The Muhuer Iziyar was temporarily stationed in herd. In fact, at that time Dou Tumen Fujin wanted to marry Huang Taiji, but he couldn't tell.

The empathetic big Belledai saw the situation, and naturally understood the intention of the comer, so he went to Huang Taiji and said that this woman is a gift from heaven and should be accepted as a concubine.

Dou Tumen Fu Jin Chu Chu moving. Huang Taiji was also very fond of this beautiful woman who was sent to the door, but he was worried that the outside world would say that the war they launched was to take away the wife of the family, so he repeatedly evasive. Big Baylor said hurriedly: "No, on the contrary, if we do this, we will win some Mongols to surrender and become our allies." Baylors also believe that doing so will help to subdue Lin Danhan's men. This is also a political need.

Huang Taiji was tempted. After three days of consideration, he finally decided to marry Dou Tumen. Huang Taiji also talked to Minister Zhubele about one of his adventures: during a march, when he was stationed on the Narit River, a female pheasant flew into his royal guard. In his opinion, this is the "good omen" for beautiful women. Dou Tumen's return to marriage is "a match made by heaven." Since it is God's will, it must be accepted. Therefore, Huang Taiji sent Bakshishifu and others to greet him. Donikuluk's mission was completed and he also returned to Huang Taiji.

Less than a year after Huang Taijina married Dou Tumen, in March 1635, Lin Dan Khan's Doro Dafujin, that is, his wife Nang Nang Empress Dowager Na Muzhong led 1,500 families to return; In April, Lin Dan Khan, another big blessing empress dowager Jin Sutai and her son Ezhe, the heir of Lin Dan Khan, led a thousand families to defect and presented the jade seal of the country from generation to generation; accompanied by two distinguished queen mothers. There are also two other side rooms of Lin Danhan, the Empress Dowager Fujin Birch, the Empress Dowager Orzheitu, and Princess Taisong, the younger sister of Lin Danhan.

Among these women, Nang Nang Tai Hou ranked first in terms of qualification status. Not only was she born in the family of Mongolian kings, but also Lin Danhan's "zhengong empress". So, who will marry the noble Queen Mother?

of course can only be Huang Taiji with the highest status. Huang Taiji also declined the matter at the beginning. However, under Zhong Baylor's insistence and acceptance, Huang Taiji had no choice but to agree and welcomed him into the city to marry him.

Because of the noble status of Na Muzhong, in 1636, when the concubine was canonized in the first year of Chongde of the Qing Dynasty, he was named the Royal Concubine of Linzhi Palace of the West Palace. Inferior to Na Muzhong, she was named the Second Donggong Yanqing Gongshu Concubine. As early as 1625 AD, the former concubine Bu Mubutai of the West Palace, who had married Huang Taiji, retired to the Cixi Palace and named the Concubine Yongfu Palace.

In the harem of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, the most noble "Chongde Five Palace Empresses" were all Mongolian women. In addition to the two survivors of Mongolian Lindan Khan, the remaining three are from the Mongolian Horqin Ministry, and the three concubines are relatives and nephews.

Mongolia’s Horqin Tribe was the first to be attached to the Jin Dynasty. Mang Gusi, the left-wing leader of the Horqin Ministry and the brother of Ming Ambel, gave his daughter to the wife of the Emperor Taiji in 1614. This is Huang Taiji's Queen Xiao Duanwen, also known as "Queen Zhe". The marriage between Manchu and Mongolia further promoted their politically stable relations. In 1629, Huang Taiji raised troops to conquer the Ming Dynasty, and the 23 Baylors of Horqin Department led the followers to defeat the Ming army.

In 1625 (the tenth year of the golden destiny), Wu Keshan, son of Horqin Beilezaisang, presented his sister Bu Mu Butai and the imperial concubine, who later became famous in history. Zaisan Belle is the son of Mang Gusi and the brother of the Queen of the Palace, so Concubine Zhuang is the niece of the Queen of the Palace of Taiji. Concubine Zhuang was the biological mother of Emperor Shunzhi Fulin. She experienced the three dynasties in the early Qing Dynasty in her life, which was the critical period from chaos to governance. She fully assisted the emperor and made significant contributions to reconciling the internal conflicts and struggles of the Qing palace, stabilizing the social order in the early Qing Dynasty, and promoting national unity.

In 1634, Wu Keshan sent another younger sister to Shenyang and the imperial concubine. This time it was Concubine Zhuang's sister Hai Lanzhu who was accepted as a concubine by Huang Taiji. Concubine Chen is Huang Taiji's favorite. He named the palace where the concubine Chen lived "Guan Sui Palace". The status of the concubine Chen ranked second in the fifth palace, second only to her aunt Queen Xiaoduan. But Tian was jealous of the beauty, Chen Fei died at the age of 33. The emperor was so distraught that he even passed out. The Emperor Taiji held a grand funeral and gave the posthumous title "Min Hui Gong and Yuan Concubine". This is the highest number of words among the posthumous titles of concubines in the Qing Dynasty.

After losing his concubine, Huang Taiji was in grief day and night, his body was deteriorating, and he often "speechless". Later, the kings and ministers asked him to go to Puhe to shoot hunting, so as to relieve his depression. No, passing by the tomb of the concubine Chen, Huang Taiji was touched by the scene, and he made him cry again. Less than two years after the death of Concubine Chen, Huang Taiji was also destined to return to Jiuquan. Huang Taiji's true affection for the concubine Chen is rare among the emperors of the past dynasties.

In the early days of the Manchu Qing regime, the Confucianism had not yet completely occupied the minds of those in power. Among Huang Taiji’s concubines, a side concubine who had given birth to two daughters for him, the daughter of the Mongolian Zalut tribe Qingbeile, Borzijit, was ordered by Huang Taiji to remarry and marry Yehe. Nan Chu, son of Delger Taiji, is his wife. Historical records: "The daughter of Bayar Tudaiqing, the third Fujin Zalut tribe of Khan, gave it to Nanchu, son of Dergertaiji of Yehe tribe, because she did not agree with Khan." As a generation of emperors, Huang Taiji did. The matter of remarrying his concubine is incredible. This is also rare among Chinese feudal emperors.
