Prince Cheng of the First Rank

Prince Cheng of the First Rank, or simply Prince Cheng, was the title of a princely peerage used in China during the Manchu-led Qing dynasty (1644–1912).

As the Prince Cheng peerage was not awarded "iron-cap" status, this meant that each successive bearer of the title would normally start off with a title downgraded by one rank vis-à-vis that held by his predecessor.

However, the title would generally not be downgraded to any lower than a feng'en fuguo gong except under special circumstances.

The first bearer of the title was Yongxing (永瑆; 1752–1823), the Qianlong Emperor's 11th son, who was made "Prince Cheng of the First Rank" in 1789.

The title was passed down over seven generations and held by seven people.
