Prince Lü
Prince Lü of the First Rank, or simply Prince Lü, was the title of a princely peerage used in China during the Manchu-led Qing dynasty (1636–1912). As the Prince Lü 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.

The first bearer of the title was Yuntao (1686–1763), the 12th son of the Kangxi Emperor. In 1722, Yuntao was made a ''junwang'' (second-rank prince) by his father for his military achievements. However, a year later, he was demoted two grades to ''beizi'', but was restored as a ''junwang'' in 1730. In 1735, he was promoted to ''qinwang'' (first-rank prince) under the title "Prince Lü of the First Rank". The peerage was passed down over eight generations and held by eight persons. ...
