When Caghatai Khan arrived at his life's term, he appointed Amir Qaracar Nuyan administrator of the kingdom and made over his children to him. He died seven months before Okadai Khan, in the year of the Ox, Zi-l-qa'da 638 (May-June 1241). Qaracar Nuyan, in accordance with his promise, took charge of the management of the kingdom and after some time, made over to Qara Hulagu Khan, son of Mawatkan, son of Caghatai, the government of his grandfather's dominions. After some years, when Giyuk Khan, son of Okadai became Khan (i.e., Khaqan) Qaracar Nuyan deposed Qara Hulagu Khan, and appointed Isu Mangu, son of Caghatai in his room. Let it not be concealed that Okadai Qa'an had, during his sovereignty, nominated his eldest son, Kucu as his heir, but Kucu died during his father's lifetime. He then made his (Kucu's) son Shiraniun who was his favourite, his heir. When the Qa'an (Okadai) died, Giyuk Khan was in Russia, Circassia and Bulgaria (i.e., Great Bulgaria) and came to the great camp (i.e., the capital) three or four years afterwards He established justice and the cherishing of subjects. When Isu Mangu was covered with the veil of annihilation, Qaracar Nuyan again appointed Qara Hulagu to the government of the country and died during his reign in 652 (1254), full of honours and success, at the age of 89.
