After his death, she married King Chungseon. It was said that her relationship with the King's beloved wife, Lady Gim was not good[3] since the two of them received the same gogo, an official hat that was worn by the women of the Yuan imperial clan.[4] Since Heo was the mother-in-law of the Emperor, she even went to Yuan's Imperial Palace to inquire about her son-in-law. During a banquet, Lady Heo and Lady Kim changed their attire five times to show off their luxurious clothes and appearance. all of her children married into noble families and the Yuan Imperial Family.
