Yunxi, Prince Shenjing of the Second Rank
Yunxi, Prince Shenjing of the Second Rank, was the twenty-first son of Shengzu. In the fifty-ninth year of Kangxi he first accompanied the emperor on a tour beyond the frontier. In the second month of the eighth year of Yongzheng he was enfeoffed as a beizi. In the fifth month an edict, holding that Yunxi had set his will on improvement, advanced him to beile. In the eleventh month of the thirteenth year, when Gaozong came to the throne, he was advanced to Prince Shen of the Second Rank. Yunxi's poetry was clear and elegant, and he was especially skilled in painting, looking far back to Dong Yuan and near to Wen Zhengming, and styled himself Zijiong Daoren. In the fifth month of the twenty-third year of Qianlong he died and was given a posthumous name. Edit
In the twelfth month of the twenty-fourth year the emperor's sixth son Yongrong was made his heir and enfeoffed as beile. In the thirty-seventh year he was advanced to Prince Zhi of the Second Rank. In the fifty-fourth year he was advanced again to prince of the First Rank. Yongrong too was skilled in painting, rivalled Zijiong in excellence, and was also versed in astronomy and calculation. In the fifty-fifth year he died and was given the posthumous name Zhuang. His son Mianqing inherited as prince of the Second Rank. Mianqing was bright from childhood; at the age of thirteen, when he attended Gaozong at the Summer Mountain Villa at an archery contest, he hit the target with three arrows and was granted a yellow riding jacket and a three-eyed peacock feather. He understood music. He was of frail constitution. In the ninth year of Jiaqing he died, only twenty-six years old. Renzong grieved deeply for him, granted five thousand taels of silver, and gave him the posthumous name Ke. His son Yiqi inherited as beile. In the fifth year of Daoguang he was found guilty of an offence and fined his stipend. In the nineteenth year he was stripped of his rank. In the twenty-second year he died, and his enfeoffment was restored. His sons and grandsons were reduced one degree at each succession by the rule and inherited as Dukes Who Guard the State. Edit
