Princess Jincheng

Princess Jincheng (Tibetan: ཀྀམ་ཤང་ཁོང་ཅོ་, Wylie: KIm-shang Khong-co,[1] also Tibetan: ཀྀམ་ཤེང་ཁོང་ཅོ་, Wylie: KIm-sheng Khong-co;[2] Chinese: 金城公主; pinyin: Jīnchéng Gōngzhǔ; Wade–Giles: Chin-ch'eng Kung-chu, c. 698 – 739), surnamed Li, was an Empress consort of Tibet.

[4][5] Emperor Zhongzong conferred the title of Princess Jincheng upon his foster daughter and, in 710, a minister of Tibet arrived to collect her.

However, Christopher Beckwith has been suggested that Lha, the de facto Tibetan Emperor who ruled briefly in 704 to 705, was the person who actually received the Princess Jincheng as bride in 710, though this is very unclear.

In one case, she solved a dispute between the Tibetan and Tang envoys by erecting a plaque to mark the two territories.

[8] In 723, unhappy with her marriage, Princess Jincheng ask for asylum with the King of Kashmir, but she was persuaded to remain in Tibet.
