King You of Chu

King You of Chu, personal name Xiong Han, was a king of the Chu state.
Succeeding his father, King Kaolie, King You reigned from 237 BC to 228 BC. During his reign, King You's maternal uncle, Li Yuan served as prime minister.
In 235 BC, after an attack on the Zhao state, troops from the states of Qin and Wei united to attack Chu but suffered a defeat.
In March 228 BC, King You died and was succeeded by his younger brother, King Ai.
It is rumoured that King You was the illegitimate son of Lord Chunshen.
In the 1930s, King You's tomb at Shou County, Anhui Province was destroyed by warlords, and many artifacts were dispersed, but a great bronze cauldron was preserved and is on display in Anhui Museum.
