In the ancient imperial palace, an important basis for whether a concubine was favored was her fertility status, so to speak, those who did not have children or had fewer children were not necessarily unfavored, but those who gave birth more were definitely favored, there was no doubt about it. Today, I want to talk about a woman who has the most children for Nurhaci, and she is concubine Jiamu Hujueluo. True brother.
Jiamu Hujue Luoshi is one of the Manchurian surnames, which is actually a branch of the Ilgen JueLuo clan, and because it lives in the Jiamuhu area, it was changed to The JiamuHujue Luoshi. Brother Zhen married Nurhaci, the lord of the founding state, around 1591, and was nurhaci's eighth Fujin, and became a concubine due to the low status of his mother's family.
At that time, when Nurhaci was rising, other Jurchen tribes, such as the Four Jurchens of Haixi, felt the great threat posed by Nurhaci. However, the following year, a woman from the Jurchen Yehe tribe of Haixi gave birth to the eighth son, Emperor Taiji, for Nurhaci, who was later posthumously honored as Empress Xiaocigao Menggu Zhezhe.
At that time, Menggu Zhezhe was indeed very favored, but Zhen Ge did not hesitate to let go, although she was only a concubine, her status was not high, but in the eight years from 1592 to 1590, she gave birth to five children for Nurhaci, namely the ninth son Babtai, the fourth daughter Mukushgege, the eleventh son Babuhai, the fifth daughter and the sixth daughter. It was with these five children that Zhen Ge became the woman who gave Nurhaci the most children.
Due to the low status of Zhen Ge in the Nurhaci harem, his two sons Babutai and Babu Hai were also of average talent, did not receive their father's weight, and eventually only obtained low-level titles such as Zhenguo Gong and Zhenguo General, which could not be compared with daishan, Huang Taiji, Dolgun and other brothers.
However, brother Zhen has two daughters but it is worth mentioning.
The first is the fourth daughter, Mukusheg.
Mukushge was first married by his father Nurhaci to Belebu Zhantai of the Urab, and later, when the Ural tribe was destroyed by Nurhaci, Mukushge returned to Jianzhou. He was then remarried by his father to the general Edu, and Mukushge gave birth to a young son to the veteran, whom he named Tsubilong.
After Egdu's death, Mukushge remarried to Turg, the eighth son of Egildu, according to the Manchurian custom of "fathers and sons and wives and stepmothers", but was eventually forced to divorce due to the involvement of his daughter. After that, Mukushge did not remarry, but lived with his brothers Babtai and Bab hai.
However, what people did not expect was that Mukushge's younger son Hubilong, who was born to Eyidu, later became a political star, not only becoming the emperor of the Hongyi Duke (Eyidu's title), but also becoming an auxiliary chancellor in the early years of the Kangxi Dynasty, and his descendants were five Empresses of the Qing Dynasty, Namely, Xiaozhao, Xiaosheng (not direct descendants), Xiaohe, Xiaomu and Xiaozhen.
In addition to the fourth daughter, Mukushge, the sixth daughter born to Brother Zhen was married by Nurhaci to Suna of the Yehenara clan. Suna was originally from Yehebu, and submitted to Nurhaci when Yehe was not dead, nurhaci married his sixth daughter to him, and compiled his subordinates as Niulu, making it Niulu Erzhen, subordinate to the Manchurian Zhengbai Banner.
After Nurhaci's sixth daughter married Suna, she gave birth to a son, named Suksaha. Unexpectedly, this Suksaha also became an auxiliary chancellor in the early years of the Kangxi Dynasty. That is to say, among the four auxiliary governments of the Kangxi Dynasty, Shubilong and Suksaha were actually cousins. However, Suksaha was later defeated in a political battle with Aobai and was eventually killed.
Regarding the specific time of the death of Nurhaci Concubine Jiamu Hujue Luoshi Zhenge, there is no record in the historical records, she died around the beginning of the Kangxi Dynasty, so it can be seen that this woman has gone through the five dynasties of Mandate of Heaven, Tiancong, Chongde, Shunzhi and Kangxi, and can also be regarded as a legendary woman in the harem of the Qing Dynasty.
