Yesugei

Yesugei was the first ruler of the Mongolian Dynasty, and ruled over its predecessor khanate. He conquered most of the Mongol tribes within western and central Mongolia, and later pushed into eastern Mongolia, founding the Mongolian Dynasty. After ruling for a few months, he handed leadership over to his friend Möngke, and left eastwards towards Manchuria. What exactly happened to him afterwards is unknown, but he may have settled among the Daur Mongols to disguise himself. His exact relationship with Möngke is unclear, as he may have been an uncle or cousin.
