About Princess Dowager Zhang
Feng Ba, courtesy name Wenqi (文起), Xianbei nickname Qizhifa (乞直伐), also known by his posthumous name as the Emperor Wencheng of Northern Yan (北燕文成帝), was either the founding or second ruler of the Northern Yan dynasty of China. He became monarch after Gao Yun, whom he supported in a 407 coup that overthrew Murong Xi, was assassinated in 409. During his reign, the Northern Yan largely maintained its territorial integrity but made no headway against the much stronger rival Northern Wei dynasty. He was said to have had more than 100 sons, but after his death in 430, his brother and successor Feng Hong had them all executed.
