"Duogansi Khan?" Li Xuan looked outside the temple, his eyes cold, "Is he also involved with the Mongols?"
"He is, some years ago when the Great Shiwei General Alachien led tens of thousands of Iron Cavalry to raid Qinghai, they swept across Duogan. Duogansi Khan sought peace, offering gold, silver and jewellery. As a result, he was rewarded with the title of Chancellor by the Mongol Khan."
The so-called 'Chancellor' was equivalent to 'Imperial Secretary' or 'Censor' during the Tang Dynasty, meaning prime minister.
After the former Yuan retreated into the steppe, they continued to maintain part of the Yuan Dynasty's bureaucratic system and used this 'Chancellor' position to win over Mongol and Tibetan tribal leaders.
Like Alachien, who is also referred to as Chancellor Ala, Altanmoor Chancellor, Chancellor of Ala.
