Chapter 109 Nurhaci's First Wife, Tongjia 1



In 1584, during the Wanli reign (the twelfth year), Nurhaci led his troops to attack the city of Ongkolo, but was unexpectedly shot in the neck by an arrow, and bled profusely all night.

His first wife was taking good care of him, bending down to wipe his sweat, when he suddenly came to his senses, grabbed his wife's hand and said, "After I win the battle, I will take two more concubines!"

His wife looked away, pulled her hand away from his, and then mysteriously disappeared into the annals of history.

She was Nurhaci's first wife, Tongjia Hahana Zhaqing, and her father was Tamu Bayan, a well-known wealthy merchant in Tongjia City.

In the Jurchen language of Bayan, it means rich person or wealthy man.

It can be said that the original owner's family was not short of money at all; she was a wealthy heiress.

Throughout history, eight or nine out of ten wives who were able to support their husbands from scratch and build a business together did not have a good ending.

There are plenty of reasons to accept two colors.

He could be said to be trying to gather strength through marriage, or he could be said to be indulging in beauty and novelty!

In short, regardless of whether his wife is good or bad, her existence is an eyesore to that successful man!

For example, she had seen his wretchedness and humility!

For example, her very existence is a disgrace to him!

For example, if he's rich and powerful, he's unlikely to stay with just one woman!

For example, the original owner of this body, Nurhaci married into her family. Perhaps, in the face of survival, it was a blessing for Nurhaci to marry her.

But after he achieved great success, there were always people who looked down on and insulted him because of his status as a son-in-law!

He endured it day after day until he achieved great success!

The descendants of the Aisin Gioro family have always kept this matter a closely guarded secret.

After marrying into the family, Nurhaci changed his surname to Tong, and the Ming government at the time also referred to him as "Tong Nurhaci".

It wasn't until after the original owner's death that Nurhaci changed his surname back to Aisin Gioro.

So why didn't they divorce? Because the original owner bore him children, and the Tong family also contributed 13 sets of armor and a large amount of money to help him raise an army!

He understood his wife's sacrifices better than anyone else, but for the sake of his empire, he still chose to abandon her.

After Nurhaci's death, Huang Taiji succeeded him and later established the Qing Dynasty.

When Huang Taiji posthumously honored the Grand Consort who had passed away earlier, he only posthumously honored his own mother as Empress Xiaoci Gao.

None of Nurhaci's other principal wives, except for Abahai, held the title of empress.

Abahai was posthumously honored only because of the existence of Dorgon and Dodo.

Not to mention his first wife, Tong Jia Hahanazhaqing, who passed away many years ago.

After the Qing army entered the pass, influenced by Han Chinese culture, they considered it a shameful thing for a man to marry into another family.

Therefore, he made no mention of Nurhaci's first wife, deliberately forgetting about her.

Neither Huang Taiji nor any of the descendants of the Aisin Gioro family wanted to mention Tongjia Hahana Zhaqing again.

However, even if everyone tries to avoid the topic, it cannot erase the fact that Tongjia Hahana Zhaqing was Nurhaci's first wife.

After all, her eldest son Chu Ying, her second son Dai Shan, and Princess Dong Guo all came from her womb!

Historically, Hana Nazhaqing was intentionally omitted from the record and was not posthumously granted a title!

"He's getting impatient, huh!" the bright-eyed woman laughed sarcastically.

"The moment I pulled him back from the brink of death, and he blurted out that he wanted to take two concubines, I knew it was time for me to leave!"

"But he couldn't wait. Since he wanted Eidu to fully cooperate with him, he took Niohuru as his concubine."

"He couldn't wait to marry Lady Fucha, who was also a widow. She was the daughter of Mangse Duzhu, a famous chieftain of Jianzhou Right Guard!"

"So, my existence is in their way!"

"I had already written the divorce papers, but I still fell ill with an unknown disease and died from weakness!"

"I should thank him; at least, it was only after Daishan was safely born that he had a reason to attack me!"

"Of course, Niohuru and Fuca deserve credit! He wouldn't want to bear the infamy of harming his first wife, so they rightfully became the knives in his hands!"

"Do I regret it? I don't know!"

"But I'm still not reconciled! I'm not reconciled that he so highly praised my child and then so easily abandoned him!"

Nurhaci's "Five Founding Ministers" Eidu, Feiyingdong, Heheli, Anfeiyanggu, and Huerhan, along with some of his brothers, were at odds with Chuying.

When Nurhaci raised his army, Chu Ying was only 4 years old. Due to the early death of his mother, the young Chu Ying followed his father through countless battles.

Chu Ying also distinguished himself in many battles, making important contributions to Nurhaci's unification of the Jurchen people, and can be called an outstanding meritorious official of Nurhaci.

As the eldest son, and having repeatedly distinguished himself in battle, he was appointed to take charge of the government. He was only 29 years old that year.

A weak ruler with strong ministers, or a strong ruler with weak ministers.

Emperors have always been in a power struggle with their court officials, and Chu Ying at that time already considered the Khanate to be his for the taking!

They suppressed the five ministers and the four princes in many ways.

He was exceptionally brave in military affairs, but he was far from adept at the art of ruling an emperor.

He can't even keep his mouth shut, and he's been jointly sued by five ministers!

Sherry thought he was incredibly stupid. She was just as careless with her words, but that was when it came to matters of love and romance!

It's not politics!

She thought she was much smarter than him.

"Do you think my Ying'er is incredibly stupid?!" Haha Nazhaqing suddenly turned around to look at her.

Sherry was dumbfounded!

This woman is really smart, it's just that she has bad luck!

“He’s a sitting duck! After I died, Nurhaci probably still felt some guilt, so he put all that guilt on the child!”

"How could someone as brave and skilled in battle as he later became as stupid as a pig?"

“He was the common enemy of all his brothers. The higher Nurhaci praised him, the more dangerous he became! Sure enough, his followers and strategists gradually led him to say some hurtful things! And those words, unsurprisingly, were embellished and passed on to Nurhaci’s ears!”

"Why did Daišan lose his right to ascend the throne? Nurhaci's later concubine, Deyinze, reported to Nurhaci that Daišan had an improper relationship with the Grand Consort Abahai, which disqualified Daišan from succeeding to the throne. This indirectly led to Huang Taiji's ascension to the throne, which was itself a conspiracy."

"I don't care who was used as a pawn by whom! But my children's misfortune all stems from Nurhaci!"

“I became an obstacle to his progress, and my child became the foundation for his child’s progress!”

"Why should I?!"

"You know what I mean, right?! I'm going to take back what's rightfully mine! He owes me a life too!"

Haha, Nazarqing is proud and beautiful, with a cold gaze!

If we say that the later Tongjia clan, specifically the branch of Empress Xiaoyiren, were Han Chinese who had become Jurchens.

So the original owner's branch of the Tongjia clan were genuine Manchus, but for better survival, their language, clothing, and habits were more like those of the Han people!

When Nurhaci was ten years old, his birth mother passed away.

After that, Taksi, who was then the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchen Right Guard, married another woman.
