Nurhachi was born in a slave owner's family. His father is Tucker, and he has five sons and a daughter. Di Fei's surname is Xitarala, and the quota is Muzzi. She was the daughter of the viceroy of Agu, and later became the Empress Xuan. Hitala gave birth to three sons and a daughter. The eldest son Nurhachi. The birth of Nurhachi is unusual. His mother was pregnant before giving birth to him 13 months. The third son, Shuerhazi, was named Darhan Batulu. The fourth son, Jarha Qi. Tash's stepwife, Nora, whose real name is Kenzhe, or Kenjie, is a clan girl raised by Khan Wangtai in Hadawan, Haixi. She has a son, Bayara, whose name is Zhuo Liktu, and the fifth son of Dapai. Tucker's concubine Li Jiashi gave birth to a son named Muerhaqi, named Qingbatulu, the second son of Dapai.

Nurhachi teenager lost his mother. It can be said that the special experience of a teenager losing his mother made this strange emperor. "Records of the Qing Emperor Taizu" records: "When I was ten years old, the Queen Xuan collapsed. Followed Princess Nora's family and raised a widow. At the age of nineteen, I was separated and gave birth to a thin family. " "Official History of Manchuria" records: "Khan lost his mother at the age of ten. Stepmother is jealous.

Father was puzzled by his stepmother's words, so he separated. He was nineteen years old. The family property was only given a little. When Nurhachi was ten years old, he met with great misfortune in life, and his mother died of Sitara's illness. The successor princess Nora became his stepmother. Nora was "jealous" of the stepson, treated him badly and was "ungrateful". Therefore, young Nurhachi did not enjoy normal maternal love and was left out by his stepmother. Father Tucker obeyed his stepmother and separated from Nurhachi. The property given to Nurhachi is "unique". Nurhachi was only nineteen years old that year. This is tantamount to pushing Nurhachi into society.

Tucker was originally the home of slave owners, even in the case of low productivity.

It should also be full. Because their family still enjoys Aha (slaves). However, little Nurhachi had to make a living alone. He often haunts the mountains and collects mountain products such as pine nuts, ginseng, fungus and mushrooms, or hunts wild animals such as wild boar, mountain rabbit, elk and sable, and trades them in Fushun Guanma Market. Fushun Mashi is a big market, and it is a place opened by the Ming government to trade goods between Jianzhou Nuzhen and Han nationality. In the Ming Dynasty, merchants from Shandong, Shanxi, Hedong, Hexi, Suzhou and Hangzhou all concentrated in the trade of Fushun City, especially the Ma market in the east of Fushun City, where merchants stood side by side. Nurhachi has extensive and in-depth contacts with Han, Mongolian and Korean in this big business school. He studies their language, customs and culture. Broaden one's horizons, increase one's knowledge and broaden one's mind. More importantly, he studied the characters of the Han nationality and read chapters and novels such as Water Margin and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The heroes, war plots, famous sayings and aphorisms, philosophies and historical stories in the book, like a vivid textbook, left a deep imprint on Nurhachi's young mind. All this laid a preliminary foundation for his future career.

Nurhachi is good at riding and shooting, which is his housekeeping skill. It is said that once, Nurhachi happened to meet a rider. The rider with a beautiful bow and arrow caught Nurhachi's attention. Upon inquiry, it turns out that this person is the famous new Weng Jin of the East Asian Department. Niu Wengjin is famous for riding and shooting. Nurhachi sent people to warmly invite Newwangjin to his side and praised him greatly. Then, he pointed to a willow tree a hundred paces away and asked him to perform. New Weng Jin had a plan, dismounted safely and calmly, raised his bow and arrow, and fired five arrows in succession. As a result, the flag fell, and three strikes and two losses. The three arrows hit are also different.

Nurhachi was eager to try, and he also shot five arrows in succession. As a result, all five arrows hit, and the landing point was very close. Judging from the people who saw it, they all cheered and jumped for joy, and Xin Wengjin was also surprised.

Another great opportunity in Nurhachi's life was that he was adopted by Li, the general of Liaodong in Ming Dynasty, and served as a soldier for three years. These three years have greatly improved his martial arts, and he can skillfully use knives, bows, swords and sticks. Nurhachi showed great courage when fighting with the enemy, and often beheaded the enemy in an instant. These three years of military career have become an important military training stage in Nurhachi's life. This experience later evolved into an almost mythical "legend about Wang Han":

At that time, there was a catastrophe in the Ming Dynasty, and the world was in chaos. Hanwang went down the mountain to join Li (Li). Seeing that Nurhachi was beautiful, cute and clever, Li left him under the account to wait on himself.

One night, Li washed his feet and proudly said to his concubine, "Look, I can be a company commander because I have these seven moles on my feet!" " His beloved concubine said to him, "The bookish people under our account have seven red moles on their feet!" " "The company commanders were shocked to hear that-this is obviously a symbol of the son of heaven. Some time ago, I received an imperial edict that Ziweixing fell, and there was a statue of the son of heaven in the northeast, and I was ordered to catch it closely. The man who should be arrested is right in front of us. The company commanders secretly ordered to be a prison car, ready to escort Hanwang to Beijing for beheading.

The company commander's little wife always likes Wang Han best. She was very sorry to see that the company commander had to deal with it like this. I want to save Hanwang, but I can't. So I asked the person in charge to discuss it with him. The colonel's entourage immediately replied: "Thirty-six plans, walking is the best policy." He quickly called Hanwang to tell him what had happened and told him to run away. Hearing this, Hanwang broke out in a cold sweat and said gratefully, "The rescue of my wife is really the rebirth of my parents;" When he succeeds, he respects his wife first, then his parents. " The lady thanked her, stole a big green horse in a hurry, went out the back door, got on the horse and went to Changbai Mountain. At this time, Wang Han was accompanied by his usual dog.

After escaping, Li's concubine hung a white silk on a willow branch, put her neck in, and died as soon as the ancient days rang. It is said that Manchu always inserts willow branches on the day when yellow rice comes down every year, which is the reason.

The next day, the company commander disappeared from Hanwang. He was at a loss and suddenly found his beloved concubine hanging there. When Li realized it at once, he flew into a rage. In a rage, she was stripped naked and beaten forty times (Manchu people turned off the lights for a while when offering sacrifices to their ancestors, which is said to be a sacrifice to their wives; Because he was naked when he died, he turned off the lights to avoid shame. Then send troops after it, and we must get it back.

Let's talk about Hanwang's escape one night. Just as he was about to dismount and rest, he suddenly heard a cry of killing the sky behind him. Knowing that the pursuer had arrived, he rode away. However, the pursuer was getting closer and closer, and ten thousand arrows were shot from behind, killing the Qing horse. Hanwang said sadly, "If we can win the world in the future, we will never forget Daqing!" Therefore, the country name was later called "Qing (Qing)". Hanwang's war horse died, and the pursuer was about to catch up, so he had to run away on foot. When I was in danger, I suddenly found a hollow tree by the roadside. Hanwang used his quick wits to get into the tree hole, and there happened to be many crows flying and gathering on it.

The pursuer arrived here and saw a flock of crows landing on the tree, so he continued to rush forward. Wang Anquan is out of danger. After the pursuers had gone far, Hanwang came out of the tree hole and hid in weeds and reeds. He only saw a dog with him. Hanwang was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

Chasing for a while, nothing to catch up with; After searching for a long time, four people were not there. So he set fire to the wasteland and retired.

Wang Han sleeps like a clay figurine; There is fire everywhere, and it is going to burn to the edge. At this time, the dog behind him ran to the river, soaked himself, and then ran back and rolled around Wang Han. Going back and forth many times, I finally got all the grass around Hanwang wet. Hanwang was not killed by fire, but the dog died beside Hanwang because of overwork.

Hanwang opened his eyes and woke up, looking around, a piece of ashes. The dog that followed him died next to him, soaked to the skin. I will soon understand. Hanwang swore to the dog: "Never eat dog meat or wear dog skin for generations to come." This is why Manchu people avoid eating dog meat and wearing dog skin.

Hanwang fled to Changbai Mountain and dug wild vegetables and ginseng with wooden poles for a living. In the mountains, Hanwang remembered that he could save the day at various critical moments. This is all a blessing from God.

Thought of here, Hanwang raised his pole to worship heaven. At the same time, I remembered the rescue of the crow, and I am still grateful. I hung something on the pole for the crow to eat, which means to repay the crow for his help. After inheritance. This has become a custom.

Later, Hanwang led his troops down the mountain and captured Shenyang.

This myth and legend reflects the fate of Nurhachi's youth in twists and turns, which contains the historical imprint of the image and is full of myth. Legendary stories such as "the dog rescuer" and "the crow covers the tree" mentioned here express the totem worship of Manchu ancestors in the uncivilized period. Dogs and crows are the totems of Manchu ancestors. The death of Qing Ma found a reasonable explanation for the taboo of Qing Dynasty. At the same time, Manchu people erected wooden poles in the southeast of the yard, and some food was hung on the wooden poles for crows to eat. Commonly known as rope pole, it is used to worship heaven and god. These customs of Manchu have been clearly explained in this myth and legend.

Of course, Nurhachi once served as a soldier for Li, the general of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and it has also been confirmed here.

History provides a rare opportunity for the rise of Nurhachi. Nurhachi seized this historical opportunity. Starting from Thirteen Legacies, he set foot on the dazzling historical stage and staged an invincible historical drama.
