Princess Deoknyeong

Princess Deoknyeong (died 1375), born Borjigin Irinjinbala, was a great-granddaughter of Kublai Khan, one of the Yuan princesses who married into the Goryeo royal house. In 1330 she wed King Chunghye at the Yuan court and returned with him to Goryeo, bearing the future King Chungmok in 1337. When Chunghye was deposed in 1344, she became regent for her young son and directed state affairs.

After Chungmok's early death she remained active under King Chungjeong, stepping down in 1348 amid disturbances by powerful officials. Honored as queen mother by Gongmin, she took a Yuan title in 1367 and was buried at Gyeongneung.
