He was a son of Ashina Xian. In October of 735, Turkic tribe leader and warlord Suluk attacked the Beiting Protectorate. As a reaction, he was appointed as Xingxiwang Khagan to defend the Four Garrisons of Anxi and attached him to Gai Jiayun (蓋嘉運). However, he was removed from this post when he was defeated in 736.
