Sun He
Sun He (224 – December 253),
courtesy name Zixiao, was an imperial prince of the state of
Eastern Wu during the
Three Kingdoms period of China. He was the third son of
Sun Quan, the founding emperor of Wu. In 242, he became the
crown prince after the death of his brother
Sun Deng, the eldest son and first heir apparent of Sun Quan. In the 240s, a power struggle broke out between Sun He and his fourth brother,
Sun Ba, over the succession to their father's throne. The conflict ended in 250 when Sun Quan forced Sun Ba to commit suicide, deposed Sun He and replaced him with
Sun Liang. In 253, during Sun Liang's reign, the regent
Sun Jun reduced Sun He to commoner status and forced him to commit suicide. In 264, one of Sun He's sons,
Sun Hao, became the fourth emperor of Eastern Wu. After his coronation, Sun Hao honoured his father with the
posthumous title Emperor Wen.
