Life edit

Nalehe was born on 4 July 1881, which translates to 8th day of the 5th lunar month of the seventh year of Guangxu era. In August of the same year, Nalehe inherited a title of Prince Shuncheng of the Second Rank after the death of his father, Qing'en (庆恩).[1] In 1898, Nalehe was appointed as a commander of Bordered Red Banner army. In three years, he was tasked with supervising the Plain White Banner Gioro Family School, exclusively reserved for imperial princes; children of collateral Gioro clansmen and their close relatives.[2] In 1905, he became a commander of Mongol Bordered Yellow Banner army. In 1906, he was transferred back to the Manchu Bordered Red Banner and was made a Right Vice Director of the Imperial Clan Court after the graduation at Lu Jungui's School. In 1911, he was retransferred to the Manchu Plain White Banner.[3] Nalehe died on 14 February 1917, 6 years after the demise of last Chinese dynasty. He was posthumously honoured as Prince Shuncheng Zhi of the Second Rank (順承質郡王/顺承质郡王, meaning "obedient and knowledgeable")[4]

Nalehe was married to Yehenara Jingfang, the youngest daughter of Guixiang (桂祥), a brother of Empress Dowager Cixi.[5] The marriage wasn't consumed due to childlessness. According to the law, if the prince was childless, he would adopt a child from the same cadet line. Nalehe adopted a son of grace general Changfu, his second cousin.[6] The peerage was abolished in 1945.
