About Hongchun

Hongchun was a Qing dynasty imperial prince; the eldest son of Yunti, the Kangxi Emperor's 14th son by Empress Xiaogongren, and Qianlong Emperor's cousin. Hongchun was granted a title of Prince Tai of the Second Rank in 1731 and held it until 1735, when he was stripped of his privileges together with future descendants. Unlike other imperial princes whose lineages became extinct, Hongchun's lineage survived till the end of the Qing dynasty. As Prince Tai of the Second Rank peerage was not granted perpetual inheritability, each successive bearer would hold diminished ranks vis-a-vis his predecessor.
