Bukūri Yongšon


Bukūri Yongšon was a legendary ancestor of the future emperors of the Qing Dynasty.

Legend

Bukūri Yongšon was claimed the progenitor of the Aisin Gioro clan, which would be the imperial family of China in the future. According to the legend, three heavenly maidens, namely Enggulen, Jenggulen and Fekulen, were bathing at a lake called Bulhūri Omo near the Changbai Mountains. A magpie dropped a piece of red fruit near Fekulen, who ate it. She then became pregnant with Bukūri Yongšon.

Legacy

After the Qing Dynasty was established, he was as the posthumously named Emperor Shizu of the Qing.
