Jingxi (prince)

Aisin Gioro Jingxi (经希; 1663–1717) was Qing dynasty imperial prince as 17th son of Yolo, Abatai's son and Nurhaci's grandson. Initially Jingxi became Prince Xi of the Second Rank, but was convicted of crime and demoted to grace defender duke. The peerage was not granted iron-cap status, which meant that each successive bearer of the title would hold diminished ranks vis-a-vis his predecessor. Prince Xi of the Second Rank peerage was passed to Longdiao, Jingxi's son. As Longdiao's sons died prematurely, the peerage became extinct.

Life of Jingxi

Jingxi was born in 1663 to lady Hešeri, Yolo's third primary consort[1] and aunt of Empress Xiaochengren, Kangxi Emperor's first empress.[2] In 1683, Jingxi was made the first Prince Xi of the Second Rank (僖郡王, meaning "guardful", "precautious").[3] In 1690, after Nuoni (member of Prince Keqin peerage[4] ) discovered that Yolo had sowed discord among the regents and princes and, moreover, had framed Nuoni for unwilling to demonstrate filial piety, Jingxi was demoted to grace defender duke (奉恩镇国公) along with his father, who became posthumously demoted to Prince An of the Second Rank.[5] However, the demotion of Jingxi did not interrupt his political career. In 1715, Jingxi was appointed as right Vice Director of Imperial Clan Court. Jingxi died in 1717 and his previous title was not recovered. [6]
