Life edit

Boguoduo was born in 1650 to Shuose's primary consort, lady Nara. In 1655, he inherited the Prince Chengze peerage after his father's death under the name "Prince Zhuang of the First Rank" .[2]

His second daughter, Daokexin, was raised in the imperial palace and granted a title of the Princess of the Third Rank.[3] According to the tradition, a daughter of the imperial prince adopted into imperial household could receive a title of imperial princess (gongzhu). This honour was bestowed upon his adopted granddaughter, later known as Princess Duanrou of the Second Rank.

Boguoduo died in 1723 and was posthumously honoured as Prince Zhuangjing of the First Rank (庄靖亲王, "zhuangjing" meaning "dignified and quiet"). He was succeeded by Yongzheng Emperor's half-brother, Yunlu, due to lack of a male heir.[4]
