Emperor Huizong of Western Xia

Huizong (Li Bingchang, Li ping chang[1][2][3])(1060–1086) was Emperor of Western Xia (1067–1086).

After his father's sudden death, Huizong assumed the throne at the young age of six. His mother became the regent for the rest of Huizong's reign. In 1076, Huizong turned sixteen, and was supposed to assume direct control of the throne, but was stopped by the enormous influence of the Dowager. He was depressed by the control of his mother, and Huizong later died at the young age of 26.

Huizong was succeeded by Emperor Chongzong of Western Xia.
