About Yunsi
Yunsi, born as Yinsi, was a Manchu prince of the Qing dynasty. The eighth son of the Kangxi Emperor, Yunsi was favoured by many officials at the imperial court to be the successor but ultimately lost the power struggle to his fourth brother Yinzhen. Upon Yinzhen’s accession as the Yongzheng Emperor, Yunsi was granted the title of Prince Lian, and appointed imperial chancellor and head of the Lifan Yuan, but faced constant suppression and censure from the emperor. In 1726 he was stripped of his titles, expelled from the imperial clan, charged with a litany of offenses, and imprisoned, where he died in disgrace. He was posthumously restored to the imperial clan, without titles, during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor.
