Princess Gyeongnyeong (Korean: 경녕궁주; Hanja: 敬寧宮主) was a Goryeo Royal Princess as the second and youngest daughter of King Sinjong and Queen Seonjeong,[1] also the youngest sister of King Huijong, Duke Yangyang, and Princess Hyohoe.[2]
It seems that she was born around the 12th century based on the fact that in 1199 she formally became a Princess (공주, 公主) when her older sister, Princess Hyohoe died at 17 years old.[3] Later, in 1201, she married Wang-Jeong (왕정) and was given royal title Count Siheung (시흥백),[4] later becoming Duke Hoean (회안공).[5] With him, she had 3 sons[6] and their second son later married Princess Suheung who was her grandniece. Wang-Jeong was the descendant of Wang-Gi, Duke Pyeongyang (왕기 평양공), King Hyeonjong's son. The Princess seems to have died around the 13th century, and her husband died in 1234.
