Khutughtu Khan — Emperador Mingzong de Yuan
Hijo de Külüg Khan, en exilio en Asia Central durante una década, llamado de vuelta por su hermano menor para tomar el trono que le había sido prometido. Fue proclamado al norte del Gobi, comenzó a ir hacia el sur, y murió en una reunión con su hermano — envenenado, según todos los relatos.

“Emperor for six months, on the steppe, and never reached the capital”
Külüg Khan's son, in exile in Central Asia for a decade, called back by his younger brother to take the throne he had been promised. He was proclaimed north of the Gobi, started south, and died at a meeting with his brother — poisoned, on every account.
His two sons both became emperor afterwards, which is the only reason he has a temple name at all.
His empress Babusha, of the Naiman, was killed on the dowager's order not long after him.
