Asojiba was the youngest son of Tiemuer, the grandson of Emperor Taiding, born in the seventh year of Yanyou (1320 A.D.).In March of the first year of Taiding (1324 AD), he was established as the crown prince.In the first year of Zhihe (1328 A.D.), Emperor Taiding died, and Asojiba, who was only 9 years old, succeeded to the throne. After the death of Emperor Taiding, Daang Shasha, who was then Prime Minister Zuo, used his power exclusively for his own use. After more than a month, he still did not establish a new emperor, which caused a shock in the court and the public.Yan Tiemu'er, a member of the Privy Council who stayed in Dadu, took the opportunity to make Emperor Huai, the second son of Wu Zong Haishan, Tutie Mu'er.In September of the first year of Zhihe, Tutiemuer proclaimed himself emperor in Dadu. This was Emperor Wenzong in the history of the Yuan Dynasty.

After Wenzong succeeded to the throne, the news quickly spread to Shangdu.In order to achieve the goal of continuing to monopolize the government, with the support of the clan kings Tuotuo and Wang Chan, Dao Lasha hastily embraced Aso Jiba on the throne of the emperor, changed his name to Tianshun, and was known as Emperor Tianshun in history.After Emperor Tianshun succeeded to the throne, Dao Shasha immediately dispatched Wang Chan, the king of Liang, Tie Mu'er, Prime Minister of You, Niu Ze, Taiwei Buhua, etc. to break the Juyong Pass, march into Changping, and approach Dadu. .Facing the attack of the Mongolian army in Shangdu, Yan Tiemu'er and his younger brothers Sa Dun and Zi Tang Qishi led the army to fight, and Wang Chan and others were defeated repeatedly.In October, Buhua Timur, Marshal of Eastern Mongolia, Yan Tiemuer's uncle, and Qi Wang Yuelu Tiemuer surrounded Shangdu with soldiers. Daanglasha was defeated in many battles, and was forced to leave the city to surrender with the emperor's seal.Tutiemu'er soldiers entered Shangdu, and Emperor Tianshun, who had only been emperor for a month, did not know where to end.He also has no temple name, and is known as "Emperor Tianshun" in history.
