The Marquis of Xubu (died 189) was a chanyu of the Southern Xiongnu during the late period of the Han dynasty. He was installed by a rebellious faction of the Southern Xiongnu after they killed the previous chanyu, Qiangqu and ousted his son, Yufuluo.
History
[edit]In 188 AD, the Xiuchuge clan and a part of the Southern Xiongnu rebelled in Bing province, killing the Chinese provincial inspector and their chanyu, Qiangqu. Initially, Qiangqu's son, Yufuluo was installed as the new chanyu, but soon, the rebellious faction ousted him and replaced him with an unnamed marquis of the Xubu clan. Yufuluo went to the Han capital, Luoyang to complain, but at the time, the capital was thrown into chaos by the death of Emperor Ling. When Yufuluo returned to Bing, the rebels refused him entry, and he was forced to camp at Hedong Commandery east of the Fen River.[1]
The marquis of Xubu did not reign long, as he soon died in 189. After his death, his followers retired the chanyu position and installed an elderly king with nominal power, although Yufuluo and then his brother, Huchuquan continued to claim the position in exile.[1]
