Liu Sui

Liu Sui (simplified Chinese: 刘遂; traditional Chinese: 劉遂; died 154 BC) is the son of Liu You. When Emperor Wen of Han ascended to the throne in 180 BC, Sui was created as Prince of Zhao after Lü Lu along with others at the end of Lü Clan Disturbance. During the reign of Emperor Jing of Han, key advisor Chao Cuo suggested emperor to use past ignored offenses committed by the princes to reduce size of their lands, and Sui lost the Changshan commandery in this process. Out of anger, Sui was persuaded to join the Rebellion of the Seven States. He allied with the Xiongnu forces and battled intensely with general Li Ji forces. The Zhao forces were eventually wiped out by general Luan Bu followed by his conquest in the Qi state regions, and Sui committed suicide.[1][2][3]
