四年，宋將楊繼業陷山西城邑，題子從北院樞密使耶律斜軫擊之，敗賀令圖於定安，授西南面招討都監。 In the fourth year, when the Song general Yang Ye overran towns in Shanxi, Tizi marched under Northern Chancellery Grand Councilor Yelu Xiezhen, defeated He Lingtu at Ding'an, and was appointed Chief Commander of Southwestern Pacification.

賀令圖復集敗卒來襲蔚州，題子逆戰，破之，應州守將自遁。 He Lingtu rallied his broken troops to strike Weizhou again; Tizi met him in battle and crushed the force, after which the Yingzhou garrison commander fled on his own.

初，題子破令圖，宋將有因傷而仆，題子繪其狀以示宋人，咸嗟神妙。 Earlier, after defeating He Lingtu, Tizi had seen a wounded Song officer collapse in the field. He painted the man's likeness and showed it to captured Song troops, who marveled at the portrait's uncanny accuracy.
