Huang Shixiang (born 1934) is a Chinese Beijing opera singer best
known for his performances in "Jade River" Taijun Cichao
(å¤ªå ›è¾æœ ) and Hongzong Liema (紅鬃烈馬). His father, Pugong,
was the son of Zaixun, a Manchu prince of the late Qing dynasty. Had
the empire not been abolished, this would have made him fourth in line
to the throne as of 2019, behind Jin Yuzhang and his brothers.Huang
has gone to some lengths to conceal his imperial ancestry. Rather than
his father's family name Aisin Gioro or its Chinese form Jin, he goes
by the maiden name of his mother Huang Yongni (stage name Xue Yanqin),
who was also a famous Beijing opera actress. He is likewise registered
as a member of his mother's Hui Chinese ethnic group rather than as a
Manchu.
