Aisin Gioro Yinxiang, born on the first day of October in the twenty-fifth year of the Kangxi period (November 16, 1686), died on the fourth day of May in the eighth year of the Yongzheng period (June 18, 1730), the Kangxi Emperor's thirteenth son, the first generation of Prince Yi.
Yinxiang's life was quite dramatic. For the first 36 years, he remained unknown and was imprisoned for his involvement in the late Kangxi throne dispute. The last eight years were spent after his older brother, Yin Zhen (Emperor Yongzheng), took the throne. He suddenly rose from an idle prince to the Prince, received a variety of privileges and distinctions, long suppressed talent has been fully developed. Unfortunately, he only lived to be 45 years old and came and went in a hurry on the stage of history. After his death, the preparation of extreme sorrow and honor, posthumously "Xian". This is the highest praise for the character of a dead king.
History of thirteen A brother Yinxiang, mother of Jingmin Huang Guifei Zhang Jia, Manchuria yellow flag people. In terms of the number of Zhang Jia's children for Kangxi and time to see, she is still quite favored. But in Yinxiang 14 years old died. Yinxiang in a waste before the Prince is in addition to the Prince of Kangxi's favorite son, from the age of 13 as long as Kangxi must take Yinxiang on tour, he is also the only one with the Kangxi South Tour up to four times more than the Prince. Especially Kangxi forty-one years the fourth tour of the time, leaving behind the Prince and the four A brother, order Yinxiang alone to worship Mount Tai. Mount Tai in ancient times is a symbol of power, Qin Shi Huang Han Wu Di had several times Zen Mount Tai to show the highest imperial power, this meaning can not be counted not deep, the next year Suo Ertu was Kangxi rebuked "the world's first sinner", Kangxi on the crown prince trust greatly reduced. Eight A brother's teacher once in the forty-third year of Kangxi wrote to the family, said thirteen His Highness is the emperor's favorite, the future is immeasurable. The old eight's teacher said so, it can be seen at that time, thirteen a brother's holy favor how. Again, feiyuehe's book said yinxiang is a good martial arts with soldiers, but from the limited historical data, yinxiang never led a soldier. Although there are records that he had killed a tiger, and good at riding and shooting, but basically look at Yinxiang is partial to the text, and good collection of books and paintings, in painting and calligraphy and other aspects of artistic cultivation is very high. A waste of the crown prince when things happen, who do not know, nowadays the most primitive and relatively credible information is Yongzheng to Yi Prince's eulogy said, was implicated by the crown prince, was framed by the big brother. But yongzheng for the honored one to delete unfavorable Yinxiang's history is a very normal thing. But in kang xi forty-nine years kang xi to three, thirteen, fourteen ah three people please peace folding on the vermillion said yinxiang is not diligent learning loyalty and filial piety of people, such as not strictly constraints, will be a matter of life and death. Unfaithful and unfilial comment is very serious, do not know what Yinxiang in a waste of the Prince did something to let Kang Xi's attitude towards him a drop in the ocean, it is a mystery. Perhaps because of this defeat and the attitude of Kangxi, Yinxiang depressed, this kind of disease called crane knee wind, good and bad, for several years, until Yongzheng ascended to the base basically disappeared. It is worth stating two points: 1. Many people think that Yinxiang was once feudal bezi, but on the information, Yinxiang in the Kangxi years without any title. After the birth of Yinxiang after Kangxi once twice to his son knighted, 37 years once, Yinxiang was still small, natural turn. 48 years once, Yinxiang has fallen out of favor, no knighthood.
