Shi Chonggui

914–974 · 10th century · Also known as Emperor Chu of Later Jin

Shi Chonggui was the second and last emperor of the Later Jin dynasty in northern China, succeeding his uncle Shi Jingtang in 942. Unlike his uncle, who had been a vassal of the Khitan Liao dynasty, he refused to submit. The Khitan invaded repeatedly and took the capital Kaifeng at the start of 947, deporting him to Manchuria, where he died.
