保泰，自拜唐阿累遷察哈爾都統，與雅滿泰同為駐藏大臣，廓爾喀侵藏，保泰坐請達賴喇嘛、班禪額爾德尼避兵，又匿廓爾喀未構兵前表貢方物，及遣使有所請不以入奏，上改其名曰俘習渾，與雅滿泰同奪職荷校，先後予杖者四。 Baotai rose from baitangga to Chahar commander-in-chief and served as Tibet commissioner alongside Yamantai. When Gorkha invaded Tibet, Baotai was punished for urging the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Erdeni to flee and for concealing tribute sent before hostilities and requests brought by envoys without reporting them to the throne. The emperor changed his name to Fuxihun; he and Yamantai were stripped of office, made to wear the cangue, and Baotai was flogged four times in all.
