Empress Yang (Lü Long)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Empress Yang (楊皇后, personal name unknown) was an empress of the Chinese/Di state Later Liang. Her husband was the last emperor, Lü Long.

Very little is known about Empress Yang. She was created empress when Lü Long became emperor in 401, after his brother Lü Chao (呂超) assassinated the emperor Lü Zuan (Emperor Ling). It is not known whether she survived the state's destruction in 403 or her husband's death in 416.
