Reign

He was a son of Genna Shad (伽那设), thus a nephew of El Kulug Shad.[1] However, according to some sources he was a son of Ashina Tong.[2] He was acknowledged as khagan by Taizong. Khagan sent governors to the Tarim Basin, Tashkent, Samarkand and Bactria to assert rule.[1] However, he was soon killed by men following orders of Yukuk Shad in 641.
