阿魯輝帖木兒，滅里大王之裔也。 Arugh Temür was a descendant of Great Prince Mieli.

禿滿傳曲春，曲春傳太平，太平傳帖木兒赤，而阿魯輝帖木兒襲其封。 Tuman passed the title to Quchun; Quchun to Taiping; Taiping to Temürchi; and Arugh Temür inherited the enfeoffment.

阿魯輝帖木兒知國事已不可為，乃乘間擁衆數萬，屯于木兒古兀徹之地，而脅宗王以叛。 Arugh Temür saw the dynasty could not be saved, seized the moment to gather tens of thousands at Mu'er Gu'uji, and forced princes into rebellion.

於是降詔開諭，俾其悔罪，阿魯輝帖木兒不聽。 He then sent edicts urging repentance, but Arugh Temür would not heed them.

其人素不習為兵，而一旦驅之使戰，既陣，兵猶未接，皆脫其號衣，奔阿魯輝帖木兒軍中，禿堅帖木兒軍遂敗績，單騎還上都。 They were not trained soldiers and were suddenly sent to battle; before the lines met they stripped their uniforms and defected to Arugh Temür. Toqash Temür's force was routed and he fled alone to Shangdu.

至正二十一年，更命少保、知樞密院事老章，以兵十萬擊之，且俾阿魯輝帖木兒之弟忽都帖木兒從征軍中，遂大敗其衆。 In Zhizheng 21 he sent Junior Guardian and Privy Council director Lao Zhang with one hundred thousand men, including Arugh Temür's brother Qutu Temür in the army, and they crushed the rebel force.

阿魯輝帖木兒遂謀東遁。 Arugh Temür then planned to flee eastward.

其部將脫驩知其勢窮，乃與宗王囊加、玉樞虎兒吐華擒阿魯輝帖木兒送闕下，帝命誅之。 His officer Toqan, seeing defeat was near, joined Princes Nangia and Yushu Huer Tuhua in seizing Arugh Temür and sending him to court, where the emperor ordered his execution.
