Overview

Wang Jina was a member of the Hesheli clan in the early Qing Dynasty, belonging to the Plain Blue Banner's bondservant (baoyi). His family had lived in Hada for generations, and the exact time of his submission is unknown. He once served as a fifth-rank bondservant (baoyi da). The official genealogy of the Eight Banners Manchu Clans, Volume 9, compiled during the Qianlong reign, records that his son Mutu served as an assistant minister (yuanwailang), his grandsons Sehede and Heshan served as ceremonial officials (dianyi), his great-grandson Subuhe served as a captain (canling) and captain (zuoling) at the time of compilation, and his great-great-grandson Jiange served as a guard captain (hujunxiao).

bondservant (baoyi) were a group within the banner with specific affiliations. "bondservant da" was a corresponding organizational and managerial title. The fifth rank indicates the rank recorded in the original text and should not be interpreted as a noble title. Ceremonial officials were involved in ceremonial affairs within the government, while assistant ministers were civil officials. Captains, captains, and guard captains served in the camp and household management system.

Subuhe's concurrent positions as captain and captain require separate interpretation of his camp and grassroots management responsibilities; he cannot be considered a successor to his ancestor's title of bondservant (baoyi da). "Great-great-grandson" refers to a great-great-grandson, and the list of officials held by descendants is not a hereditary chain of positions. Volume 9 also contains the name "Wang Jina" of the Plain White Banner. This text is compiled independently according to the banner affiliation, bondservant status, and kinship records corresponding to the source_row_id, and the original names are not merged. The specific locations of the prefectures and offices to which the bondservants belong, the original locations of their hadas, and the dates of their appointments have not yet been verified, and they cannot be automatically added to a certain department of the Imperial Household Department based on their banner color.
