KMT Secretary-General

Personal life
King is alleged to be related to the last Qing emperor Puyi, although lack of genealogical evidence has raised suspicions. Were his relation to the imperial family true, he would also be the cousin of Puru and his surname King a sinified adoption of the Qing imperial clan name Aisin Gioro.
