Life
editMianyi was born on 27 October 1771 in the Manor of Yongxing, Prince Chengzhe of the First Rank. His mother was lady Fuca, a primary consort. In 1776, he was adopted into a Prince Xun peerage as Yongzhang's son.[1] In 1785, he was sent to the Eastern Tour to Shandong, where he married his first princess consort, lady Fuca. The formal marriage was held in December 1785 at the imperial villa. 26 sheep, 30 tables, 30 banquet chairs and 40 vases of simmered rice vine were prepared for a wedding banquet by bride's father. The parents of princess consort were prohibited from hosting a banquet, unlike another imperial princes with consorts and officials.[2] The costs of marriage and preparation of the prince's manor reached 50000 taels of silver, which was considered as extravagant.[3]
Mianyi inherited the peerage as a beile in 1787.[4] He was demoted to second class zhenguo jiangjun in 1804 for committing a grave offence and was upgraded to beizi in the following year.[5] Mianyi died on 26 February 1809 and was posthumously restored as the Prince of the Third Rank. He was succeeded by his eldest son Yixu.[6]
