Dudu's son: Mu'erhu, Beizi
Mu'erhu, Beizi, was the second son of Dudu. In the ninth year of Tiancong, when the army attacked the Ming, Mu'erhu followed the Beile Duoduo in leading a flanking force into Ningyuan and Jinzhou to tie down the Ming troops. They reached the Daling River, attacked and beheaded the Ming general Liu Yingxuan, pursued the fleeing enemy to Songshan, captured two hundred horses and took a watchtower, and in all this he won merit. In the first year of Chongde he was made Duke Who Assists the State. In the tenth month of the seventh year he was found guilty together with Du'erhu. In the first year of Shunzhi he followed Duoduo on the southern campaign, broke Li Zicheng at the Tong Pass, and took two of his camps one after the other. When the rebels attacked our gabushixian [vanguard scout] troops, Mu'erhu defeated them. He also laid an ambush in a mountain pass; the rebels came down from the mountain to attack, and he defeated their host. In the second year he was restored to the imperial clan and made General Who Guards the State, third class; in the third year he was raised to the first class. He followed Duoduo in the campaign against Tengjisi and others of the Sunite tribe and defeated them. In the fourth year he was raised to Duke Who Assists the State. In the sixth year he followed Nikan against the rebel general Jiang Xiang and was raised to Beizi. He again followed Nikan on the campaign in Hunan and was given a python robe, a saddled horse, and a bow and arrows. At Hengzhou, Nikan was killed in battle. In the eleventh year his earlier offences were judged and his rank was taken away. When he died, his son Changyuan was given the grade of a General Who Guards the State. The rank of his descendants was lowered generation by generation down to the grade of yunqiwei, and then the rank came to an end. Edit
