About Lê Chiêu Tông

  • Lê Chiêu Tông (???, 1506–1526; also called Lê Y, ?? or ??) was an emperor of the Lê Dynasty of Vietnam who ruled from 1516 to 1526.
  • He was the son of Lê Sùng and nephew of the preceding king Lê Tuong Duc.
  • As Lê Tuong Duc was assassinated in 1516, the young Lê Chieu Tông was put on the throne.
  • His short reign was heavily colored by continuing factionalism and jockeying for power between the M?c and Nguyen families, and his own. In 1524, Le had been forced by a rebellion to flee the capital; this rebellion was quashed by General M?c Ðang Dung, who took the opportunity to seize power for himself.
  • Lê Chieu Tông was killed by M?c supporters shortly afterwards, and succeeded by his brother, Lê Cung Hoàng.
