二十一年，命與禿禿哈同討海都，牙忽都先進，邏得諜人，知其虛實，直前沖敵陣，破其精兵，海都敗走，得所俘掠軍民而還。 In the twenty-first year he was ordered to campaign against Qaidu alongside Tutuqa. Yahudou led the advance, took spies on the march and learned the enemy's strength, drove straight into their line, shattered their elite force, and put Qaidu to flight, recovering the soldiers and civilians who had been carried off before returning in triumph.
武宗即位，以其父子勞效忠勤，益厚遇之，進封楚王，賜金印，置王傅，以駙馬都尉都剌哈之女弟弘吉剌氏為楚王妃，又以叛王察八兒親屬賜之。 When Emperor Wuzong ascended the throne, honoring the father and son's labor, merit, loyalty, and diligence, he treated them still more generously, advanced Yahudou to Prince of Chu, granted a gold seal, appointed a prince's tutor, made the younger sister of Chief Commandant of Horse Dulaqa of the Kongirat clan Princess of Chu, and also granted him relatives of the rebel prince Chabar.
