== Biography == In 1759, he was adopted into the lineage of his granduncle Yunxi (允禧; 1711–1758) as Yunxi's grandson, because Yunxi had no son to inherit his Prince Shen peerage. Yongrong was made a beile in the same year. In 1772, he was promoted to junwang (second-rank prince) as "Prince Zhi of the Second Rank" (質郡王).
