As Pozdneev points out, “The Gegen’s might in Eastern Khalkh reached its extreme limits at this time; they believed in him and came to him with the most extraordinary requests. “ For instance, his nephew Galdandorj, son of the Tusheet Khan, met with Zanabazar and implored him to cure his wife’s infertility and grant him a son. After Zanabazar recognized Manchu suzerainty in 1691 the Qing emperor awarded Galdandorj the title of Darkhan Chingwang (prince of the first rank). His son Dondovdorj was brought up in Beijing, in the Qing court of Kangxi, and in 1697 the emperor gave him a princess to marry.
