Timeline

Hiro Saga (嵯峨 浩) was a Japanese noblewoman and memoir writer.

She was the daughter of Marquis Saneto Saga and a distant relative of Emperor Shōwa.

1914

Saga was born in Tokyo in 1914 as the eldest daughter of Marquis Saneto Saga (嵯峨実勝) and Naoko Hamaguchi (浜口 尚子).

She was educated at the women's branch of the Gakushuin Peers' School.

1936

In 1936, Saga was introduced to Pujie, the younger brother of Puyi, the ruler of Manchukuo.

Pujie was then attending the Imperial Japanese Army Academy.

Saga and Pujie were wed in an arranged marriage.

Pujie had selected her photograph from a number of possible candidates vetted by the Kwantung Army.

As his brother Puyi did not have a direct heir, the wedding had strong political implications, and was aimed at both fortifying relations between the two countries and introducing Japanese blood into the Manchu imperial family.

1937

She was married in 1937 to Pujie, the younger brother of Puyi, the last monarch of the Qing dynasty of China between 1908 and 1912 and the ruler of Japanese-backed Manchukuo between 1932 and 1945.

After her marriage to Pujie, she was known as, and identified herself as, Aishinkakura Hiro (愛新覺羅•浩) or Aixinjueluo Hao in Chinese.

The Saga family was of the kuge court nobility and a branch of the Ogimachi Sanjo branch (正親町三条家) of the northern Fujiwara lineage, she shared the same great-great-grand father with Emperor Meiji, Ogimichisanjo Sanetomo.

The engagement ceremony took place at the Manchukuo embassy in Tokyo on 2 February 1937 with the official wedding held in the Imperial Army Hall at Kudanzaka, Tokyo on 3 April.

In October, the couple moved to Xinjing, the capital of Manchukuo.

They had two daughters, Huisheng and Husheng, and what appeared to be a happy marriage.

During the Evacuation of Manchukuo during the Soviet invasion of Manchuria, Saga was separated from her husband.

While Pujie accompanied Puyi in an attempt to escape by air, Saga and her younger daughter Husheng were sent by train towards Korea together with Wanrong (Puyi's wife).

1946

The train was captured by Chinese communist forces at the town of Dalizi, now in Linjiang, Jilin, in January 1946.

In April, they were moved to a police station in Changchun, eventually released only to be rounded up again and locked up at a police station in Jilin in the north.

Saga and her daughter were then taken to a prison in Shanghai and eventually repatriated to Japan.
