Prince Xi Explained
Prince Xi of the Second Rank (僖郡王) was a Qing dynasty princely peerage. The peerage was created in 1682 for Jingxi, Nurhacii's great-grandson and 17th son of Prince An of the Second Rank Yolo. As the peerage was not granted perpetual inheritability, each successive bearer held diminished ranks vis-a-vis his predecessor.[1]
