Introduction

The ninth son of Emperor Qianlong, of Aisin Gioro descent, his biological mother was Consort Shujia Jin. His birth date is recorded as the seventh day of the seventh month in the 13th year of Qianlong's reign, corresponding to August 2, 1748, in the Gregorian calendar. He was unnamed at birth and was not granted any princely title. His father was the Qing Emperor Qianlong, and his mother was Consort Shujia Jin. He spent his early years in the palace with his mother. Historical records contain no detailed account of his childhood, as he died young and did not participate in court affairs or military activities.

In terms of clan relations, his identity is defined by his matrilineal bloodline: he was the full younger brother of Prince Lü Dun and Prince Yishen Yongzhen, as well as the full elder brother of Prince Cheng Yongxuan. Such matrilineal kinship relationships were clearly positioned within the family genealogy of Qing nobility and aristocracy. Although they did not influence actual political or administrative affairs, these relationships held significance in terms of clan lineage and noble rank succession. His early death prevented him from inheriting a title or leaving descendants, and he did not continue the line of imperial princes.

His date of death is recorded as the twenty-seventh day of the fourth month in the 14th year of Qianlong’s reign, corresponding to June 11, 1749, in the Gregorian calendar, at the age of two. There are no detailed records regarding the cause of his birth or death in existing primary historical sources; only the age at death and date are documented. There are no records of significant political or military achievements associated with him. The information primarily comes from genealogical records and chronological chronicles related to the imperial clan, with no additional entries in other official histories. The reference source is the "Four Genealogies of Qing Princes."
