Hongshi was a Manchu prince of the Qing dynasty in China. Born into the ruling Aisin Gioro clan, he served as the third son of the Yongzheng Emperor.
In 1725, Hongshi was banished from the imperial clan, reportedly due to his support for his uncle Yunsi, who was a political rival of his father. He died in disgrace in 1727; however, he was later posthumously restored to the imperial clan by his younger brother, the Qianlong Emperor.
