Life

edit

Princess Heke was born on 17 August 1758 in the Forbidden City Beijing to Consort Ling. Her foster mother was Consort Shu of the Yehe-Nara clan.

It seems that the Qianlong Emperor did not favor Princess Heke very much, as her dowry upon marrying Jalantai (扎兰泰) of the Uya clan in 1771 was smaller than that of any of her sisters.

She had one daughter who married Rinchen Dorji (林沁多尔济).
