Yaropolk has to deal with the many interests of his family, most of all his powerful half brother Yuri Dolgoruki.

Yaropolk had appointed Vsevolod Mstislavich to succeed him in Pereyaslav but Yuri Dolgoruki, with the consent of the Novgorodians, had soon driven out his nephew.

Yaropolk had appointed another son of Mstislav I: Iziaslav Mstislavich to Pereyaslav, who also received Turov.

He is replaced soon thereafter by Yaropolk's brother Viacheslav Vladimirovich.

The peace doesn't last.

Iziaslav has to transfer Turov to his uncle Viacheslav in 1134 to let him rule the principality once again.

Pereyaslav will come to Yuri Dolgoruki on the condition that Iziaslav is allowed to rule Rostov although Yuri keeps a large part of the principality under his influence.

Iziaslav also receives the rule over Volyn; another half brother of Yaropolk, Andrey Vladimirovich, is to rule Pereyaslav.
