Biography

Like Chabi and Nambui, she was from Khongirad clan. Her father was Olochin, who was a brother of Nambui.[1] According to History of Yuan, she was married to Temür Khan and bore his only son Prince Dashi (d. 3 January 1306). However, Japanese researcher Uno Nobuhiro thinks of this information as later falsification by Ayurbawada's mother Dagi, according to him it was Bulugan who bore Temür a son.[2] She died in 1299 and was replaced by Bulugan as principal wife of Temür.[3][4] She was given a posthumuous title Empress Zhēncí Jìngyì (Chinese: 贞慈静懿皇后; lit. 'Chaste, kind, quiet and good Empress') by Külüg Khan.
