Yang Xian (Ming dynasty)

Yang Xian (simplified Chinese: 杨宪; traditional Chinese: 楊憲; pinyin: Yáng Xiàn; d. 1370), born Yang Bi (simplified Chinese: 杨毕; traditional Chinese: 楊畢; pinyin: Yáng Bì), courtesy name Xiwu (Chinese: 希武; pinyin: Xīwǔ), was a Chinese politician of the Ming dynasty, part of the East Zhe (Zhedong) faction (Liu Ji).

In this Chinese name, the family name is Yang.

Li Shanchang accused Yang Xian of treason and adultery. Zhu Yuanzhang then executed Yang. Zhu also executed Li Shanchang and his entire family too. Yang Xian was close to Liu Bowen, but Zhu poisoned Liu to death.[1][2][3][4][5]
