Gurun Princess Hejing (固倫和敬公主; 31 July 1731 – 30 September 1792), was a Chinese princess of the Qing dynasty. She was the third daughter of Qianlong Emperor born by his legal wife, Empress Xiaoxianchun.[1]
Life
The third princess was born on 31 July 1731, when her mother was still a primary consort. She was sent to Palace of Tranquil Longevity to be raised by Dowager Consort Chunyuqin, a consort of Kangxi Emperor. She was bestowed the title of "Gurun Princess Hejing" (固伦和敬公主, "hejing" meaning "harmonious and respectful"), after the incoronation of Qianlong Emperor.[2]
In 1746, Ministry of Internal Affairs prepared a dowry worth of 2500 Taels and continued to send her meals from palace. This kind of treatment was equal to the treatment of Imperial Noble Consort, foreshadowing later her sister Gurun Princess Hejing (1756–1775) and the youngest Qianlong Emperor's daughter, Gurun Princess Hexiao.[3] In April 1747, she married the Mongolian Prince Septeng Baljur of the Borjigin clan. Her wedding banquet was held in the Hall of Preserving Harmony in the Forbidden City.
Princess Hejing gave birth to 4 daughters and 1 son, Eleke Temur Babai (personally named by her father).[4] Her first daughter married Yonghuang's son, Miande, while her fourth daughter married Fengshenhulun, a son of Princess Hejia of the Second Rank. After the marriage, the princess continued lavish lifestyle - her annual expenses reached 15000 taels, while her allowance was 80000 taels.
In 1772, she was awarded together with her half-sister and Princess Shushen of the Second Rank, sixth daughter of deposed crown prince Yunreng. Septeng Baljur died in 1775, leaving her widowed. Princess Hejing didn't remarry and died on 30 September 1792. Her coffin was interred in the tomb of princess in Chaoyang District of Beijing.
