Prince Fu of the Second Rank, or simply Prince Fu, was the title of a princely peerage used in China during the Manchu-led Qing dynasty (1644–1912). As the Prince Fu peerage was not awarded "iron-cap" status, this meant that each successive bearer of the title would normally start off with a title downgraded by one rank vis-à-vis that held by his predecessor. However, the title would generally not be downgraded to any lower than a feng'en fuguo gong except under special circumstances.

The first bearer of the title was Yihui (奕譓; 1845–1877), the Daoguang Emperor's ninth son, who was granted the title "Prince Fu of the Second Rank" by his father in 1850. The title was passed down over three generations and held by four persons.
