"The ancestors of the world and the holy ancestors were all honored with the age of Chong, the empress of Xiaozhuang, and there was no one to discuss the construction of the curtain at that time. Yin worries about qisheng, settles the Central Plains, and Kedi yu Shengping. ”
Xiaozhuang was the most influential female politician in the history of the Qing Dynasty, who went through the five dynasties of Mandate of Heaven, Tiancong, Chongde, Shunzhi and Kangxi in her lifetime, assisted the three empires of Emperor Taiji, Shunzhi and Kangxi, and made great contributions to maintaining political stability in the early Qing Dynasty. In addition to his son Shunzhi, Xiaozhuang actually had three daughters, namely Princess Gulun Yongmu Chang, Princess Gulun Shuhui chang and Gulun Duanxianchang Princess, of which Xiaozhuang loved Princess Gulun Shuhui the most.
1. Daughter of Nishinomiya Fujin, who was born noble
Princess Gulun Shuhui, whose name was Attu, was the fifth daughter of Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty, and was born on February 12, 1632, the sixth year of Tiancong.
When Atul was born, it was the autumn of the Later Jin Dynasty, and her father Huang Taiji was not only committed to suppressing the power of the three major Baylors of Daishan, Amin, and Manggutai internally, so as to achieve his goal of monopoly in the south, but also to expand the territory externally, and in the year of her birth, Huang Taiji began a tribal war against Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Tribe.
It has to be said that Huang Taiji was one of the few emperors in the history of the Qing Dynasty who had a martial art of civil rule, and in just a few years of kung fu, he eliminated several brothers who were a threat to him, such as Amin and Mang Gultai, and began to make arbitrary decisions. At the same time, he also defeated Lin Dan Khan and caused him to die of illness in Qinghai. Of course, The Emperor Taiji also incidentally incorporated the two widows of Lin Dan Khan into his harem, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
In the year when Atul was five years old, her father Emperor Taiji declared himself emperor in Shengjing, established the Great Qing Dynasty, and was made a concubine of the Five Palaces, and Attu's mother Bumubutai was given the title of Concubine Zhuang and gave her residence in Yongfu Palace, ranking fifth in the Fifth Palace of Chongde.
2. Princess Gulun of the Beautiful Heavenly Immortals
After the establishment of the Great Qing Dynasty, Emperor Taiji imitated the Ming system, stipulating that the daughters born to the emperor would no longer be called Gege and would be renamed princesses. The daughter born to the empress was Princess Fenggulun, and the daughter born to the concubine was Princess Feng heshuo.
Some people may ask, Atul's mother Bumubutai is only a concubine of The Emperor Taiji, not an empress, why was she crowned princess of Gulun?
The thing is, in fact, at that time, the Qing Dynasty still maintained the original polygamous and polygamous system, a man can have multiple wives, for example, for the Emperor Taiji, the Zhonggong Dafu JinZhezhe is his wife, the Chongde Four Palaces born are also his wives, in addition to the Chongde Five Palaces, the concubines born belong to the concubines, therefore, the children born to the Chongde Five Palaces enjoy the status of concubines, for example, the ninth son of the Emperor Fu Lin born to the Concubine Zhuang and the eleventh son of the Emperor Bo Mu Bo Guo' son born to the noble concubines belong to the concubines of the Emperor Taiji.
According to this system, Atul also enjoyed the treatment of a concubine, so he was crowned as a princess of Gulun.
Of The three daughters of Xiaozhuang, Atul is the most beloved, why? Because this daughter not only looks beautiful, but also looks most like herself.
According to the record, the princess "eyes like water, but with the coldness of talking, seems to be able to see through everything, ten fingers are delicate, the skin is like gelatin, the snow white is permeated with pink, it seems to be able to wring out the water, a pair of vermilion lips, a smile like a yanran, every move seems to be dancing, long hair straight down to the ankles, untie the hair, green silk dances with the wind, slender waist, slender limbs, fairy-like temperament." ”
There is a portrait depicting Xiaozhuang's most beloved daughter Atu, the woman in the portrait is no different from the record, the audience exclaimed after seeing it, seeing the young Xiaozhuang, no wonder Xiaozhuang will be favored by the Emperor Taiji.
3. A long-lived princess who has been married twice
When Atul was 11 years old, his father, Emperor Taiji, arranged for himself to be a family affair, named Solha, a young prince from the Borzigit clan of the Khalkha clan of Mongolia. At that time, Emperor Taiji held a grand wedding ceremony for his daughter Atul and Solha in Shengjing, and when he heard that his sister was married, Atul's eldest sister Princess Ao Han and her brother-in-law Bandi specially rushed from the Ao Han Department to congratulate them.
However, unexpectedly, on the day after Attu's wedding, on the ninth day of the first month of August in the eighth year of Chongde, her father Huang Taiji suddenly died in The Qingning Palace. Suddenly, the happy event turned into a funeral, and the newlywed Atul had to attend his father's funeral.
Moreover, Atul's husband, Solja, was also an unblessed man, and he died of illness within a few years of marriage. According to Mongolian customs, Atul remarried to sebuteng, the auxiliary duke of the Mongolian Bahrain Department, who was not ordinary, he was the twenty-first grandson of Genghis Khan of the Yuan Taizu, and was named the auxiliary duke in the fifth year of Shunzhi, and was promoted to the king of Bahrain County in the seventh year of Shunzhi, and since then, Atul has a new title: Princess of Bahrain.
In the fourteenth year of Shunzhi, Attu was given the title of Princess Gulun Chang by his younger brother Shunzhi, and two years later he was renamed Princess Gulun and Shunchang Princess, and later renamed Gulun Shuhui Princess.
In the twelfth year of the Kangxi Dynasty, after more than twenty years of marriage with Sebuteng, Atul's second husband Sebuteng also passed away, and at that time, Atul was already a 41-year-old middle-aged woman, so she did not remarry. Moreover, Atul's mother Xiaozhuang was not in good health, so she returned to Kyoshi to take care of her sick mother, and with the company of her daughter, Xiaozhuang's mood was much better, and she quickly recovered.
In the thirty-ninth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1700), Princess Gulun Shuhuichang, who had gone through the four dynasties of Tiancong, Chongde, Shunzhi and Kangxi, died of illness in Beijing at the age of 69.
Wishing Princess Baring Shuhui a poem and preface:
Princess XiuYu Tianhuang and Zhong Xiang Kunshun were the relatives of the Emperor Kao. Shu Rong Yi Fan, like a kind circle; noble and prosperous and rushing, living in honor and prudence. Elder Lingde, sectarian style Qin; Huize fell in harmony with distant people, and Hui Rou was heard in China and abroad. For decades, I have loved to bow down and be sincere. Therefore, he often stayed in the Beijing Residence, relying on each other in the morning and evening, and using the righteousness of Zhan Dunmu. But I wish you a long and prosperous age, a good time, a smile and a long devotion, and a consolation to the eternal thought of pursuing Cining, and do not rest, and give five words to the eyebrows.
Zichen said:
Princess Gulun Shuhui's life was happy, as the concubine of Emperor Taiji, she was pampered by her mother Xiaozhuang, and although she married twice, she did not suffer any grievances. Moreover, in middle age, she can still accompany her mother, and she has lived until the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi, died at the age of 69, and I have to say that among the princesses of the Qing Dynasty, such a life has been quite complete.
