BEGINNING OF THE HISTORY OF QUBILAI QA AN<br />

He was captured along with Nomoghan and after awhile sent [back]<br />

to the Qa'an.<br />

Tenth son <strong>of</strong> Qubilai Qa'an—Qutluq-Temur<br />

His mother's name is unknown. He was born in the year in which<br />

Ariiq Boke rebelled against the Qa'an. He died when he was twenty<br />

years <strong>of</strong> age. He was married but had no children.<br />

Eleventh son <strong>of</strong> Qubilai Qa'an—Toghan<br />

He was born <strong>of</strong> Baya'ujin Khatun, the daughter <strong>of</strong> Boraqchin <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Baya'ut people. He was called Laujang. In the province <strong>of</strong> Manzi,<br />

which is called Machin, there is a great city called Jingju,17 a province<br />

<strong>of</strong> nearly 10 tiimens. <strong>The</strong> Qa'an allotted this to him.<br />

Twelfth son <strong>of</strong> Qubilai Qa'an<br />

He was born <strong>of</strong> Nambui Khatun, the daughter <strong>of</strong> Nachin Kiiregen.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Qa'an married [her] a year after the death <strong>of</strong> Chabui Khatun.<br />

He brought her to his yurt and ordo, for she was Chabui Khatun's<br />

cousin.<br />

<strong>The</strong> genealogical table <strong>of</strong> the above mentioned sons is as shown here.<br />

17 As Pelliot suggests, this must be the same as Yangju (see below, p. 282), that is,<br />

Yangchow in Kiangsu.<br />

18 Blank in the MSS.<br />
