Live
Before entry to the imperial court
Neither date of birth nor date of Wuyunzhu's death are known. Before entry to the imperial household, lady Yehe Nara had been married to Karkama, a leader of Ula valley.[3]
Live at the imperial court
Lady Yehe Nara was taken by Hong Taiji in 1619 shortly after execution of her first husband as a result of annexation of Yehe, the common practice of Manchus.[4] In 1620, Nurhaci's councubine Dayinzha discovered Lady Abahai having stolen gold and silver items. At the time palace gates were closed, Dayinzha realized she could not embrace so many items. Stolen objects were given to Nurhaci's consort Nanakun and Uyunzhu, who received 1 set of mang pattern blankets and cushions.[5] On 17 January 1628, Lady Yehe Nara gave birth to fifth imperial son, Šose. Shuose was raised in the Qingning palace together with Bomubogor and Fulin, the future Shunzhi Emperor.[6]
Live after leaving imperial court
After giving birth to Shuose, lady Wuyunzhu left the court and married minister Zhan Tuxietu. Lady Yehe Nara became a victim of domestic violence shortly after the marriage. The fairly abusive behavior of Zhan Tuxietu led her to the fourth marriage with Darhu (达尔琥), a member of the Hada Nara clan of the Bordered Yellow Banner.[7]
