### [4.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.kashmir.tarikh-i-rashidi~en-ross.4.2.4)

Ebuskun's sway was a short one, for as early as 1247 Almaligh was attacked by Kuyuk, the son and successor of Oktai, and she was deprived of her power. For a time, disorder prevailed throughout the Khanate ; but Kuyuk seems to have had sufficient power to set up one Yasu (or Isu) Mangu, who, being himself a worthless debauchee, governed the country through the agency of a Musulman Wazir, called Khwaja Baha-ud-Din. Kuyuk died within three years of his accession, and was followed, as supreme Khakan, by Mangu, who, in 1252, restored Kara Hulaku and Ebuskun to their former dignities. Baha-ud-Din and Yasu Mangu were now, in their turn, removed, the former being put to death at once. Kara Hulaku died within a few months of his restoration, and after his death we hear no more of Ebuskun. Hulaku's throne passed over to his own widow — one Organah Khatun — whose first act was to execute Yasu Mangu, under some compact, which appears to have been made for his riddance, between her predecessor and the Khakan Mangu. Organah is described as possessing much beauty, wisdom, and influence, and as long as Mangu lived she was allowed to reign in peace. But he died in 1259, when a war of succession to the supreme Khakanate broke out between his brothers Artukbuka and Kublai.
