Yuan Wenzong Tutiemuer regained the throne of the emperor by killing his brother.When he was dying, in order to atone for his sins, he ordered his elder brother and the son of Shi Wangshu to be emperor after his death. In August of the third year of Zhishun (AD 1332), Wenzong died of illness.Yan Tiemu'er, who controlled the government, wanted to make Guradana, the son of Wenzong, the emperor.After Wenzong's death, Yan Tiemu'er asked Queen Bu Dashili to make her son Guradana the emperor in order to continue his monopoly.In order to carry out her husband's will, Bu Dashili refused.At that time, Emperor Mingzong and Shi Wangshu's eldest son, Tuohuan Tiemu'er, were far away in Jingjiang, Guangxi, while the second son, Yizhen Zhiban, was deeply favored by Wenzong, and he was named King Luyan and stayed with Wenzong.In this way, in October 1332, Bu Dashili followed Wenzong's edict to support Yizhenzhiban, who was only 7 years old, to the throne, which was called Ningzong.Bu Dashili became the actual ruler of the Yuan Dynasty.
