Life edit

Chang'adai was born in the last year of Huang Taiji's reign as Mandahai's seventh son. He had a full brother named Huse.

In the 9th year of the Shunzhi Emperor's reign (1652), his father passed away and he inherited the title of "Prince Xun". However, in the 16th year of Shunzhi's reign (1659), it was found that his father had confiscated a part of former Prince Regent Dorgon's property, which lead to Chang'adai's demotion.

He died in the 4th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1665), and the court gave him the posthumous title of Prince Xunhuaimin of the First Rank. His princedom was inherited by his sixth son, Xingni.
