Lady Ma (馬夫人, personal name unknown) (890[1] – November 28, 939[2][3]), formally the Lady Gongmu of Wuyue (吳越國恭穆夫人), was a wife of Qian Yuanguan (King Wenmu) (né Qian Chuanguan, name changed to Qian Yuanguan upon his succession to the throne), the second king of the Chinese state Wuyue of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
Her father Ma Chuo was an officer serving under Qian Liu, a warlord who then controlled the region around Hang Prefecture (杭州, in modern Hangzhou, Zhejiang), who would eventually found Wuyue as King Wusu.
[1] (Qian Chuanguan had been forced to marry the daughter of another late-Tang warlord, Tian Jun the military governor of Ningguo Circuit (寧國, headquartered in modern Xuancheng, Anhui) as a political marriage and was taken to Ningguo, in 902,[4] and was not able to return to Qian Liu's domain until Tian's downfall in 903,[5] so his marriage to Lady Ma would have come after.)
She had a silver deer made and placed before her seat, and was accustomed to happily watch the children play on and around it.
She died in 939, while Qian Yuanguan was still king, and was posthumously honored by Emperor Gaozu of Later Jin as Lady Gongmu ("respectful and solemn").
