The Bordered White Banner (Chinese: 鑲白旗) was one of the Eight Banners of Manchu military and society during the Later Jin and Qing dynasty of China. It was among the lower five banners.[1] In many movies, when the Bordered White Banner was first split from the Plain White Banner, the origin commander of the Plain White Banner, Cuyen, who fell out of favor with Nurhaci for political abuse of his brothers and using voodoo talisman to curse his own father Nurhaci. The Plain White Banner was then given to Hong Taiji and the newly split Bordered White Banner was given to Dudu, the eldest son of Cuyen. Later on it was given to Ajige, Nurhaci's 12th son; however, due to their young age, both Dudu and Ajige, Dudu's uncle and Ajige's 8th brother, Hong Taiji raised both of them and essentially controlled both White Banners.
