Zhenzhu Yabgu

Zhenzhu Yabgu was a claimant to throne of Western Turkic Khaganate.

Life
He was Yukuk Shad's son and Illig Khagan's grandson. He was known as El Bi Tardu Shad during his father's reign.

In 653, he succeeded his father in Kunduz. Starting from then, he claimed to be ruler of Western Turks in opposition to Ashina Helu. Later Zhenzhu contacted Tang to receive soldiers and requested to be created a qaghan in 655. Yuan Lichen (元礼臣) was ordered by Gaozong to visit Zhenzhu on 8 November 656 to create him khagan, but he was stopped by Helu's soldiers near Suyab, causing Zhenzhu to lose much prestige.

His territory was also invaded during conquest of the Western Turks and was killed by Ashina Mishe near Shuanghe in March, 659.
