In the years of Qing, the First Prince had four wives. His main wife was Lin Wan 'er, his side wife was Liu Sisi, the Northern Qi Saintess was Haitang Duoduo, and the Northern Qi Empress was Zhan Doudou.
The First Prince of Qingyu was not the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince was the Qing Emperor's eldest son, and the Great Prince was the illegitimate child of the Qing Emperor and Lady Ning. Due to his birth, he was destined to be unable to inherit the throne. Thus, the First Prince was not the Crown Prince.
The eldest prince was Li Chengru from the Qing Dynasty.
The Great Prince of the Qing Dynasty was Li Chengru. He was the Qing Emperor's first son, born of Lady Ning. The First Prince was portrayed in the play as a free and easy person. He had half of the Dongyi bloodline and was destined to have no fate with the throne. Thus, he chose to live in seclusion in Dongyi, far away from the disputes of the imperial court. The Great Prince's mother, Lady Ning, had been a female slave of Dongyi. She and Chen Pingping had gone through hardships together and brought the Great Prince out of despair, taking care of him along the way. The Great Prince treated Chen Pingping like an elder and was very respectful. He also had a loving relationship with the Northern Qi Princess. All in all, the Eldest Prince ended up living in seclusion in Dongyi, living a free and easy life.
The relationship between the Crown Prince and the Eldest Princess in the Qing Dynasty happened in the sixth volume of the novel, chapter 86.
In the novels of Qing Yu Nian, the Great Prince's ending was to continue to guard Dongyi. Even though the Great Prince had lost the right to fight for the throne because his mother was Dongyi, he had still remained in Dongyi at the end, alive and in control of the army. Compared to the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, who had been killed and had their statuses stripped, the First Prince's ending was not bad.
There were different descriptions of the First Prince's ending in the novel 'Celebrating Years.' There were documents that stated that the First Prince chose to commit suicide because he realized that he was being used and developed love for the Eldest Princess. However, other documents mentioned that the Great Prince was still stationed in Dongyi. Although he had lost the right to compete for the throne, he was still alive and had control of the army. There were also documents that mentioned that the First Prince was a clear and open-minded person. In the original novel, he had a happy ending because he had a kind mother. In addition, there were also documents that mentioned that the First Prince had been killed while searching for the temple in the north. Therefore, there was no way to determine the exact answer.
