Li Yanlu

Who is Li Yanlu?

Li Yanlu was a son of Li Jihui, a Tang Dynasty/Qi warlord who controlled Jingnan Circuit who briefly controlled Jingnan Circuit after he poisoned his father to death.

It is not known when Li Yanlu was born. In 914, for reasons lost to history, he poisoned his father Li Jihui to death, and then took over Jingnan, claiming the title of acting military governor. He controlled the circuit for a little over 50 days, before his adoptive brother Li Baoheng killed him and surrendered to Qi's enemy Later Liang Dynasty. Qi was not able to again recapture Jingnan after that point.
