In the pre-Qin era, the Qin state located in the western part of the country and the Jin state, which occupied the land of Hedong in Shanxi, were known as the "good of Qin and Jin". But in reality, their marriage is only to maximize the interests of the country. For the Qin, their goal was to gain the right of passage to the Kunhan Road in order to set foot in the Central Plains. For the Jin Dynasty, it needed the Qin State as its backing. First, it provided assistance to the Jin state, which was in the midst of frequent changes of monarchs, to quell the chaos, and then to contain the Chu state from the direction of Wuguan to achieve the hegemony of the Jin state. This was true not only between the Qin and Jin dynasties, but also between the later Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu. The Han Dynasty needed to paralyze the Xiongnu with beautiful women to replenish their strength. The Xiongnu paid more attention to the property provided by the Han Dynasty under the premise of peace. History is always similar, and by the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there was also a marriage in the border area of the northeast that was enough to change history, that is, Nurhaci, 43, and Abahai, 12, of Urab.
Abhay was Nurhaci's last Fujin. According to the age of Abahai's marriage, 12-year-old Abhay is equivalent to the 43-year-old Nurhaci's descendants. Originally, Abhay should have his own beautiful love. But the political struggle was brutal, not to mention that the northeast was in the midst of war at that time. At that time, Nurhaci was determined to unify the Jurchens. After the Battle of Guleshan, Nurhaci, who had already conquered the Jianzhou Jurchens, deeply felt that the relationship between the Haixi Jurchens (Ula, Hada, Vola, Yehe) and the Mongol tribes was very complicated, and there was a great sense of "pulling a hair and moving the whole body". To this end, Nurhaci sacrificed the magic weapon that the Central Plains Dynasty repeatedly used to be unhappy - long-distance and close attack. Subsequently, while submitting to the Ming Dynasty, Nurhaci also expressed friendship with Korea and Mongolia, and then focused on wooing the powerful Yehe and Ula departments of the Jurchens in Haixi. Of course, there is no better way to control a country than to prop up a puppet. Nurhaci then released Buzhantai, the brother of the captured minister of Ula, and sent troops to escort Buzhantai back to China.
Later, Buzhantai, who returned to the Urab, with the strong support of Nurhaci, defeated the Ulabu's rivals and took control of the Ulabu. In 1597, urab and Nurhaci allied themselves. As a sign of sincerity, Buzhantai married his niece Abahai to Nurhaci. After marrying Nurhaci, Abhay gave birth to three sons for Nurhaci, namely Azig the Prince of England in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, Dorgon the Prince of Rui, and Duoduo the Prince of Yu.
Needless to say, Dorgon was the chief planner of the Qing Dynasty's entry into the pass, the suppression of Li Zicheng's rebel army, the suppression of Zhang Xianzhong's rebel army, and the destruction of the Southern Ming Hongguang regime. In addition, Azig and Dodo were also Dorgon's right-hand men in pacifying the Central Plains after his entry. Of course, this does not preclude the idea that Dorgon would use his brothers to control the power. However, Azig and Dordor did not live up to Dorgon's expectations. At that time, after occupying Beijing, the Qing army divided its troops into two directions to the south: one with Azig as the commander, along the Great Wall into Shaanxi, with the goal of pacifying Li Zi, and the other with DuoDuo as the commander directly marching into Nanjing, with the goal of pacifying the Southern Ming. In early 1645, the two armies of Azig and Duoduo joined forces to attack the city of Xi'an in Shaanxi Province, where Li Zicheng was entrenched. Li Zicheng was invincible and defeated Hunan. Subsequently, the two armies successively attacked Li Zicheng and the Hongguang regime in Nanjing according to the previous division of labor. It can be said that the three Dorgon brothers laid the foundation for the founding of the Qing Dynasty. Later, the Shunzhi Emperor and the Qianlong Emperor made the following evaluations of the three men.
Azig: "The king and his generals trekked, the cliffs were steep, the rivers were deep, the rivers were all over the place, and the hard work was high. --Shunzhi Emperor. Dorgon: "Prince Dorgon swept the thief atmosphere and purged the palace ban." Dispatch the kings to pursue the liukou and stabilize the frontier. The scale of creation is all painted. Fengshizu drove into the capital, becoming the great cause of unification, and the most meritorious work. --Qianlong Emperor. Dodo: "The most accomplished of the founding kings." --Qianlong Emperor.
However, compared to the exploits of Dorgon, Azig, and Dordor, their mother, Abhay, was unfortunate. It can be said that abhay's eventual death was also due to the brutal political struggle between the supreme rulers of successive dynasties.
"Hou Rao Fengzi, however jealous, caused the emperor to be displeased, although it changed organically, it was eventually controlled by the emperor's ming. After the fear of national turmoil, he said to the kings: "In the end of my life, I will be martyred." "After the kings told the emperor's last words, the queen did not obey. The kings said, "The first emperor has a destiny, but if he does not obey, he will not be able to obtain it." After dressing in ceremonial clothes, full of jewelry, he lamented to the kings: "I have been an emperor since I was twelve years old, and I have been rich in food for twenty-six years, and I cannot bear to leave, so I am subordinate to the underground." My second son, Dolgun and Dolgun, should be nurtured. The kings wept and said, "Second younger brother, if we have no grace, we will forget our father." How can there be no reason to be unkind! "Therefore, on the twelfth day of the Xinhai Dynasty, he committed suicide, and lived thirty-seven years, and he was with the emperor." - Records of Emperor Taizuwu
In August 1650, Dorgon, who held the military and political power of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, posthumously honored his birth mother Abahai as "Empress Xiaolie Gongmin Xianzheren and Zantianli Shengwu", and placed the tablet in the Temple of Taimiao. However, with the death of Dorgon, Abahai's tablet was ordered by the shunzhi emperor to remove the temple and deprive Abahai of his title.
