For most people, marriage should be a door-to-door pair. Because the conditions between the two sides are too different, there will be great differences in the outlook on life, so that after marriage, it will be easy to have contradictions. This has been true since ancient times. Although there are sometimes "inspirational" stories of poor boys marrying Bai Fumei, the ending is often unsatisfactory. However, the poor boy we are going to talk about today is an exception, he not only successfully married Miss Qianjin, but also finally succeeded in counterattacking, becoming a generation of tianjiao known to the world, his name is Boer Jin Temujin, which is known as Genghis Khan.
Genghis Khan's life was not a low starting point, and his father should have been the head of the Mongol beggars. As a result, his childhood was, at least materially richer than that of other Mongols of his age.
When Temujin was eight years old, his father took him to his mother's mother's house, the Hongjira tribe known for its beauty, to choose a future wife. It was also quick to choose for his son the nine-year-old daughter of the Tsutsuki Chan family, one of the leaders of the Hongjira clan. Since the two sides were in the right place, this family affair was quickly settled. As a sign of sincerity, temujin should be left to live with his future father-in-law and return to camp on his own.
On the way back, he also quickly met a group of Tatar people holding a banquet, so he joined in anonymously. However, someone at the banquet recognized him as the Mongol leader who had led the attack on the Tatar tribe, so he poisoned the food. He also fell ill shortly after returning home. The clan ran to Hiroki to take Temujin home, and before he could arrive, he was about to die.
After his death, Temujin's life instantly fell to the bottom. Relatives and supporters who had previously obeyed Yasuke's orders left and took most of the tribe's property with them. Temujin's family was abandoned to fend for themselves in the upper Onnon River region. To survive, Temujin and his brothers had to make ends meet by fishing and digging weeds.
After living in this extremely difficult environment for about five or six years, Temujin encountered a new ordeal. Fearing reprisals, the Mongol Temujin family, the Mongol Temujin clan, went to the camp where the Temujin family lived and demanded that Temujin, the eldest son, be handed over to Temujin as a hostage. Temujin, who was only 14 or 15 years old at the time, tried to escape, but eventually became a prisoner of Taichi Ubu. He was put in heavy chains and imprisoned in the Taichi Ubu. Later, thanks to the help of a Taichi Ubu slave named Suo'erhan, Temujin managed to escape.
After returning home, in order to avoid the enemy family coming to the door again, Temujin's mother, Khao Erlun, took the family to hide in mount Bu'erhan Heltun (present-day Kent Mountain, Mongolia). Life here is still very hard, and the Temujin family's property is only a few horses. However, this poor property was stolen by thieves in the past. Temujin sets out to look for the thieves, and after some ordeal, he finally brings back the stolen horses. It is worth mentioning that on this journey to find horses, Temujin met a young man named Borshu, who would become the head of the founding fathers of Mongolia many years later.
In any case, the experience of retrieving the lost horse gave Temujin a great deal of confidence. Soon after, he came to Hongjirabu and asked the chief, Te Xue Chan, to marry his daughter. At this time, Te Xue Zen was still the leader of the tribe, but Temujin had become a completely poor boy. The two sides have long since ceased to be a door-to-door relationship. However, after seeing Temujin, Te XueChan did not hesitate to admit his oath to his father, so he married his daughter Bo Erti to this penniless but determined suitor. At the same time, Te Xue Chan also used an extremely precious sable leather robe as a dowry for Bo Erti. Later, Temujin gave the sable robe to the powerful krypton leader, Thira Khan, thus winning an extremely important alliance.
After Temujin and Bo Erti married, the era of his family's isolation and abandonment finally came to an end. Some of temujin's followers, who had been separated after Yasumi's death, returned after seeing that Temujin had received support from the Hiroyoshi clan, and the number of Temujin's followers increased greatly. From then on, Temujin began his path to domination.
At the beginning of the thirteenth century, Temujin successfully unified the Mongol ministries. In 1206, at the meeting of the Mongol nobles at the source of the Onn River, the people unanimously elected Temujin as the Great Khan, with the honorific title of "Genghis Khan".
