Life

Ashina Huseluo was the son of Ashina Buzhen who died in 667. His real name was Böri and his title was shad, hence Böri-shad. As a youth he saw Tang influence decline in favor of the Tibetan Empire in Central Asia, thus he couldn't rule his ancestral lands and tribes. However, in 685 Wu Zetian made him jiwangjue khagan and mengchi protector-general to strengthen Chinese rule in west. Later he was appointed xingxiwang khagan .
In 690, he was made jiezhong shizhu khagan for his valiant fights against the Tibetan Empire and the Second Turkic Khaganate. Reportedly he was harsh and ruthless towards his subjects.
After Ashina Tuizi's rebellion he was sent again to Suyab in 700, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Pingxi Force. However, after the rise of Üç Elig Khagan, he did not dare to come back to the Western Region.
He died in 704, in Chang'an and was succeeded by Ashina Huaidao.
