仁宗聞朝廷有變，將北還，命朵兒只與李孟先之京師，與右丞相哈剌哈孫定議，迎武宗於北籓。
When Renzong learned of upheaval at court and prepared to return north, he sent Duoerzhi and Li Meng ahead to the capital to confer with Right Chief Minister Qarghasun on welcoming Wuzong from the northern frontier.
武宗聞其賢，召見之，仁宗曰：「此人誠可任大事，然剛直寡合。」
When Wuzong heard of his talent and summoned him, Renzong said, "This man is truly fit for great responsibilities, but he is rigidly upright and makes few allies."
武宗顧視之，曰：「然。」
Wuzong looked him over and said, "That is so."
初，武宗崩，皇太后在興聖宮，鐵木迭兒為丞相，踰月，仁宗即位，因遂相之。
Earlier, when Emperor Wuzong died, the empress dowager was at Xingsheng Palace and Temüder served as chief minister. More than a month later, when Emperor Renzong came to the throne, he retained Temüder as chief minister.

When Wuzong acceded, Baizhu was recalled from mourning and appointed director in the Central Secretariat's left department. He went out as general administrator of Hejian Circuit, was summoned as commissioner of the Right Guard, was transferred to minister of revenue, and was then appointed censor-in-chief.
