Pathos of Fatima
Güyük Khan (c. March 19, 1206 – April 20, 1248) was the third Great Khan of the Mongol Empire, the eldest son of Ögedei Khan and Toregene also a grandson of Genghis Khan. Güyük received military training and served as an officer under Genghis Khan and Ögedei Khan. He married Oghul Qaimish, the daughter of Checheyikhen, who was the fifth daughter of Börte Üjin and Genghis Khan. Fatima was a close friend of his mother Toregene and exercised extra-constitutional powers. Güyük followed his father's policy and had Fatima arrested and executed for bewitching his brother Koden (Khuden) and Abd-ur-Rahman was also beheaded for corruption. Of the provincial officials appointed under Toregene, only the Oirat official Arghun Aqa remained. When the plot was discovered, Khoja was exiled to the South China front and Shiremun was executed. Töregene managed to keep a Kurultai from being held until it was sure her son Güyük was favored by the majority. Töregene passed power onto to her son Güyük in 1246. She retired west to Ögedei's appanage on the Emil. Töregene herself died under still unexplained circumstances. Read "Khan the Great" and know on the Mongolian Royal Pathos….Sivkishen Ji, Author
