Yesü Möngke

Yesü Möngke (died 1252) was the fifth son of Chagatai Khan and the third ruler of the Chagatai ulus. Around 1246 his friend Güyük deposed the chosen heir Qara Hülëgü and made him khan instead. He gave himself up to drink, leaving affairs to his wife and vizier.

After Güyük's death he backed the Ögedeid princes against Möngke and boycotted the quriltai that elected him in 1251. Möngke then restored Qara Hülëgü, who died on the journey; his widow Orghana seized power and had him executed in 1252.
