Biography
Zaitao was born in the Manchu Aisin Gioro clan as the seventh son of Yixuan (Prince Chun). His family was under the Plain Red Banner of the Eight Banners. He was adopted by an older male relative, Yimo (å¥è¬¨; 1850â1905), who had no son to succeed him.In 1890, during the reign of the Guangxu Emperor, Zaitao was granted the title of a second class {{transliteration|zh|zhenguo jiangjun}}. He was promoted to a {{transliteration|zh|buru bafen fuguo gong}} in 1894. In 1898, Zaitao was transferred from Yimo's lineage to the lineage of Yihe (å¥è©¥; 1844â1868), Prince Zhong of the Second Rank, as Yihe's adopted son because Yihe had no son to succeed him. He was made an acting {{transliteration|zh|beizi}} in the same year. In 1902, he was promoted to {{transliteration|zh|beile}}.In December 1908, Zaitao was made an acting {{transliteration|zh|junwang}} (second-rank prince), even though nominally he still remained as a {{transliteration|zh|beile}}. In the same year, he and Tieliang (éµè¯) were appointed as {{transliteration|zh|zongsi jicha}} (總å¸ç¨½å¯; a type of inspector-official). A year later, during the reign of the Xuantong Emperor, Zaitao was put in charge of the Military Consultancy (è»è«®è). In 1910, he visited eight countries â Japan, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Austria, and Russia â to observe and learn from their more advanced armed forces. In May 1910, he was sent to Britain as an ambassador to represent the Qing Empire at the funeral of King Edward VII.The Times, May 21, 1910In 1911, Zaitao was appointed as the Minister of the Military Consultancy (è»è«®å¤§è£) and placed in charge of the Imperial Guard (ç¦è¡è»), as well as being appointed as chief of general staff.Esherick (2013), p. 190 He was also designated as the commander of the Mongol Bordered Yellow Banner. In January 1912, after the fall of the Qing Empire, Zaitao, along with Zaixun and others from the imperial clan, founded the Royalist Party (å®ç¤¾é»¨) to preserve their ancestral temple. In 1917, when the warlord Zhang Xun briefly restored Puyi to the throne, Zaitao was appointed as the Commanding Officer of the Imperial Guards.In 1931, Zaitao was recruited by the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China to join the National Crisis Conference (åé£æè°). After the People's Republic of China was established in 1949, Zaitao served as a member of the National People's Congress and Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.Zaitao fancied horses{{Citation needed|date=June 2021}}.

During the Korean War, he went to Inner Mongolia to choose horses for the Peopleâs Volunteer Army.Zaitao was also interested in Beijing opera. He was trained in both long and short range types of performing martial arts, and specialised in playing monkey roles in opera. He was tutored by Yang Xiaolou (æ¥å°æ¨) and Zhang Qilin (å¼µæ·æ). Opera actor Li Wanchun (æè¬æ¥) trained under Zaitao for three years.Zaitao died in Beijing in 1970 at the age of 83.Family
