Family[edit]

  • Father: Bokdo - held the title of beile[Note 1] (博克多[Note 2];?-1607)
    • Grandfather: Buyan, Tailan's son; first beile and founder of the Ula state.

Her father and uncle were beheaded during Battle of Wujieyan, part of Nurhachi 's war to conquer the Jurchen tribes.

Wanli era[edit]

The exact date of birth of Lady Ula Nara is unknown. Her father died in the thirty-fifth year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty.

It is unknown whether Lady Nara became Huang Taiji 's wife afterwards due to the defeat of the Ula tribe.[1][2]

In the thirty-seventh year of Wanli era (1609), on March 13, she gave birth to his eldest son, Hooge. In the thirty-ninth year of Wanli, she gave birth his second son, who would die prematurely in 1621. On 3 April 1621, she gave birth to his eldest daughter, Princess Aohan of the First Rank.[3]

The date of Lady Nara's death is unknown, though it is possible that she died before Huang Taiji inherited the throne of Later Jin Dynasty in August in the eleventh year of Destiny.[4] Lady Nara has never been posthumously conferred a title of Empress.
