元妃張氏生鄗王允中、越王允功。 The primary consort, Lady Zhang, bore Yun Zhong, Prince of Hao, and Yun Gong, Prince of Yue.

是歲，改葬明德皇后于坤厚陵，永中母元妃張氏陪葬。 That year Empress Mingde was reinterred at Kunhou Tomb, and Yong Zhong's mother, the primary consort Lady Zhang, was buried with her.

汝弼妻高陀斡自大定間畫永中母像，奉之甚謹，挾左道為永中求福，希覬非望。 Rubi's wife Gaotuowo had painted a portrait of Yong Zhong's mother as far back as the Dading era and tended it with scrupulous devotion; she turned to unorthodox rites to win blessings for Yong Zhong and harbored forbidden hopes.
