They don't discriminate between friend and foe when they're scheming against others!
Dongguo looked helplessly at Azhuo, whose face was elegant and charming, and whose demeanor was graceful.
A rare, exquisite young man in Manchuria!
As a result, many partners have sent similar teenagers to Dongguo!
Dongguo didn't want trouble in the backyard for the time being, and besides, Azhuo would whine and act cute.
Dongguo was reluctant to part with it, just as Xueli was reluctant to part with Changyu!
Xue Li pulled Chang Yu and kissed him again and again, and Chang Yu hugged her in his arms and kissed and hugged her back.
Little Xibao stood at the door looking at her nanny, then turned around and went to find the dog!
In 1597, the 25th year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Nurhaci formed an alliance with the Yehe tribe through marriage and launched military expansion activities.
In 1598, the 26th year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Nurhaci launched a military campaign against the Haidong Jurchen (Wild Jurchen), and continued to advance into the East China Sea until 1615.
In 1599, the 27th year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Nurhaci destroyed the Hada tribe of the Haixi Jurchens.
While Nurhaci was having several more daughters, Daišan got married!
Shirley's whole family went, including her, Changyu, Xiaoxibao, and Dongguo.
Azhu stays at home to look after the children and take care of Tong's father.
Gundai intended to manage all matters, big and small, of Nurhaci's household, including internal affairs and even financial revenue and expenditure.
He appeared confident and composed, unlike the stiffness he displayed when he first met Sherry.
Nurhaci saw Xue Li amidst his busy schedule. When he saw Chang Yu accompanying her, his expression froze for a moment, though at first glance his expression seemed normal.
Nurhaci was delighted to see his eldest daughter's confident and composed demeanor!
As Dongguo was introduced to everyone, the question inevitably arose about whether she was married or not.
Dongguo spoke with them about business cooperation.
Dai Shan has changed drastically, as if he were wearing a mask.
Sherry was completely confused by his conversation, and later, in a fit of anger, she started hitting him: "If you can't speak properly, I'll teach you!"
Daishan dodged and looked at his sister, who pretended not to see him and was drinking milk.
Dai Shan suddenly laughed and kept trying to charm Xue Li!
Sherry didn't want to get involved anymore; anyway, her subordinates seemed quite afraid of her.
Little Xibao clung to Daishan's leg and wouldn't let go. They both had one thing in common: they loved to laugh!
The only difference is that Dai Shan smiles like a fox, while Xiao Xibao is just a simpleton.
Shirley ignored them and went to rest with Changyu!
Nurhaci would bring his son, daughter-in-law, and grandson over later to have a meal together.
“Since you don’t like noise, I didn’t hold a banquet. How about we have a family reunion dinner?” Nurhaci said, teasing his grandson and looking at Xue Li.
Sherry nodded, then suddenly felt something soft and squishy in her hand. She thought it was Xiao Xibao who had grabbed another little rabbit for her.
I glanced at it, and...wait, a black rabbit?
Take another look, and Sherry's pupils dilated in shock!
"Ahhhhhh—" Sherry threw down the mouse in her hand and almost burst into tears, then softly complained to Changyu.
If Dongguo hadn't reacted quickly, Xiaoxibao would have been kicked away by his father.
Changyu pulled Xueli to wash her hands, and Xueli glared at the little brat with red eyes.
She's disgusting us right before we're about to eat!
Even though it's exquisitely beautiful, it just isn't likable!
The scariest creatures among the furry animals are rats and monk-faced monkeys.
Sherry cried in anger, and Xiao Xibao, knowing she had caused trouble, lowered her head and hid behind Daishan's legs.
As a result, Dai Shan smiled and turned his face away, looking at the sky and the ground but not at her.
Little Xibao paused for a moment, then ran over and hugged Chu Ying's leg.
Chu Ying, with his long, unshaven beard, sat there silently, trying to minimize his presence.
Seeing her two older brothers' expressions, Xiao Xibao looked like she was about to cry, and finally, feeling wronged, she threw herself into Nurhaci's arms.
Nurhaci acted faster than he thought, and laughed while holding the baby.
Sherry glared at him, and Nurhaci smiled: "Don't be angry, child, this is just you being filial, you didn't give it to anyone else!"
Xiao Xibao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she took another one out of her pocket and handed it to Nurhaci.
Nurhaci: ⊙▽⊙
Nurhaci looked at the little guy's starry eyes, then at the mouse in his hand, and suddenly felt that it would be a bit too inhumane for him not to accept it!
Sherry burst into laughter: "Hurry up and answer it! That's a gift from your child, he doesn't even have a biological father!"
Little Xi Bao rolled her eyes but didn't say anything.
He didn't dare give it to his own father, because his own father would really beat him!
Everyone burst into laughter. Nurhaci didn't take the little mouse, but instead pulled out a whip and handed it to him.
"This is a gift from your father! Go and take your friends out to play!"
Little Xi Bao looked on with surprise and turned to look at her older sister.
The older sister nodded, and little Xi Bao happily took the whip, calling out in her sweet little voice, "Thank you, Father."
Sherry was puzzled by Nurhaci's magnanimity, but then she thought about it and realized that it was normal for them to adopt sons and daughters!
As everyone began their feast, amidst the clinking of glasses and the exchange of toasts, a beautiful young woman and a brave warrior came up to perform a dance.
Two days later, Daishan got married, and his wife was a princess from the Huifa tribe.
Sherry gave a gift similar to that given to her eldest daughter-in-law. She noticed that her second daughter-in-law had a somewhat aloof personality.
But she is a model of a virtuous wife, being considerate in all aspects of interpersonal relationships!
After spending a few days playing with her grandson, Shirley also reminded her second daughter-in-law to say goodbye to Nurhaci later!
Nurhaci's eyes showed a hint of melancholy, but he quickly calmed down.
"Dongguo, Father's horses are in your hands!" Nurhaci turned to Dongguo.
Sherry looked puzzled, while Nurhaci laughed heartily without saying a word.
Sherry remembered that Nurhaci had a younger son, so she instructed Daishan: "Your father can't have a son anymore, so keep a close eye on who that younger brother's biological father is!"
Shirley ignored Daishan's horrified expression; he probably calmed down and realized that the Tongjia clan had given everything, how could they let others benefit from it all?!
As a result, Daishan realized more than once that one should never underestimate a woman!
We can't leave people no room for maneuver! Pushing them too far will only lead to a fight to the death!
If Father hadn't harbored feelings for his mother back then, why would his mother have acted this way to solve everything once and for all?!
It wasn't a one-time solution; the Khanate could only be chosen between him and his brother.
The older brother preferred warfare and was not good at strategic maneuvering!
So, to be honest, his mother simply and directly secured a bright future for them!
The impact of this event was far-reaching, and Daishan consistently adopted a policy of appeasement in his future campaigns against the Ming Dynasty, though this was only on the surface.
The carrot and stick strategy will never go out of style!
In 1600, the 28th year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Nurhaci focused primarily on the war to unify the various Jurchen tribes. That year, he successfully conquered the Wanyan tribe.
In 1601, the 29th year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Nurhaci completed the unification of the various Jurchen tribes. In the same year, he also went to Beijing to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.
In that year, he established four banners: Yellow, White, Red, and Blue, known as the Plain Yellow, Plain White, Plain Red, and Plain Blue, thus laying the foundation for the Eight Banners system.
