Aisin-Gioro Huisheng (26 February 1938 – 4 December 1957), better known simply asHuisheng orEisei, was a Manchu-Japanese noblewoman. She was born in theAisin Gioro clan, the imperial clan of theQing dynasty. She was the elder daughter ofPujie, the younger brother ofPuyi, the last emperor of China. Her mother wasHiro Saga, a Japanese noblewoman who married Pujie in 1937.

Huisheng was born on 26 February 1938 at Xinjing Special Municipal First Hospital in Xinjing (present-dayChangchun,Jilin,China), the capital ofManchukuo to Pujie andHiro Saga. Her uncle,Puyi, ruled as the puppet emperor of Manchukuo under Japanese control during theSecond Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945). Her younger sister wasHusheng (嫮生; b. 1940). She lived in Manchukuo until 1943, when she was sent to Japan to live with her maternal grandparents. She was educated in various prestigious private schools, including theGakushūin. She was very interested in Japanese and Chinese literature.

After the end of the war, Huisheng's father was captured by Soviet forces and held in a prison camp for five years before he was extradited to the People's Republic of China in 1950. He was then incarcerated in theFushun War Criminals Management Centre. Huisheng's mother and younger sister were also captured and imprisoned inShanghai before they were repatriated to Japan in 1947. However, even though Huisheng had been reunited with her mother and sister, her father was still imprisoned and out of contact with them. During this time, Huisheng wrote in Chinese to Chinese premierZhou Enlai, requesting that he put her in touch with her father. Zhou was moved by her letter and granted her permission.

In April 1956, Huisheng was enrolled at theGakushuin University, in June, she began a relationship with her classmate Takemichi Ōkubo (大久保武道,Ōkubo Takemichi), the son of a railway executive. Later, in February 1957, Huisheng's mother strongly opposed her daughter's decision to marry Ōkubo, either because Ōkubo was a commoner, or because Huisheng had been considered as a potential candidate to marry the then-Crown Prince Akihito.

Huisheng (age 19) and Ōkubo (age 20) disappeared on 4 December 1957 and were later found dead onMount Amagi in theIzu Peninsula. Huisheng, wearing a golden ring on her finger, lay with her head cradled in Ōkubo's left arm. Ōkubo held a pistol in his right hand. Above their heads was a twisted piece of tissue paper containing snips of their hair and fingernails – an element in the ritual of aJapanese love suicide.^[1] This murder-suicide incident was known as theAmagisan shinjū (天城山心中,Love Suicide at Mount Amagi).

At the request of Ōkubo's father, Huisheng and Ōkubo's ashes were interred together first at the Saga family plot inNison-in, and then at the Aisin-Gioro family plot inShimonoseki,Yamaguchi.
