Title My Dearest
The Qing dynasty was not Han Chinese, they were Jurchens. I suspect the language was Manchu?
You're right. It was an old tungusic language, called Jurchen back then. Jurchen people who later became the Manchus and formed the Qing dynasty had different ethnic groups within them including Han Chinese and Mongols. But since this is before they became Qing, it ought to be Jurchen.
