Princess Hexiao's dowry of 300,000 silver taels far exceeded that of any other of the Qianlong Emperor's daughters.

In 1799, shortly after the Qianlong Emperor's death, Princess Hexiao's father-in-law, Heshen, was arrested on charges of corruption and political incompetence.

Heshen's immense wealth, amassed over a long career of corrupt activities, were confiscated.

After Fengšeninde's death, Princess Hexiao raised her two daughters (both born to his concubine), who were eleven and five years old respectively when their father died.

She was financially stable; the Jiaqing Emperor made the Imperial Household Department ensure that she was well taken care of.

The cost of her funeral, paid for by the Imperial Household Department, amounted to about 5,000 silver taels.
