He became the emperor in 1516 by generals Phùng Mại and Trịnh Duy Đại's support. However, Trịnh Duy Đại has been defeated in the fighting with his cousin Trịnh Duy Sản who supported Lê Y. So he received Lê Quang Trị to Tây Đô about May 1516, then he killed Lê Quang Trị and emperor's two brothers.[2] Lê Quang Trị only kept the throne on three days.
時惟㦃旣弑帝，乃與宗室大臣謀，欲立穆懿王子光治，武佐侯馮邁爭議立錦江王漴長子椅，祥郡公馮穎使力士殺邁於禁中議事堂，遂立光治。時年八歳。纔三日，未及改元，鄭惟岱將歸西都。
