Luo Yi
Luo Yi () (died 627), known during service to the
Tang dynasty as
Li Yi (),
courtesy name Ziyan (子延) or
Ziting (子廷), was a
Sui dynasty official who rose against the rule of
Emperor Yang of Sui and occupied the modern
Beijing region. He subsequently submitted to
Emperor Gaozu of Tang and was created the Prince of Yan and granted the imperial surname of Li. He subsequently, in the struggle between Emperor Gaozu's sons
Li Jiancheng the
Crown Prince and
Li Shimin the Prince of Qin, joined Li Jiancheng's faction. After Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng in 626 and forced Emperor Gaozu to yield the throne to him (as Emperor Taizong), Li Yi was fearful, and he rebelled against Emperor Taizong in 627. He was soon defeated and killed.
