Liu Shouguang (Chinese: 劉守光) (died February 16, 914[1][3]) was a warlord early in the Chinese Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period who controlled Lulong (盧龍, headquartered in modern Beijing) and Yichang (義昌, headquartered in modern Cangzhou, Hebei) Circuits, after seizing control from his father Liu Rengong and defeating his brother Liu Shouwen. He claimed the title of Emperor of Yan in 911, but was subsequently defeated and executed by Li Cunxu the Prince of Jin, who absorbed Yan into his Jin state.
^The date used here for the end of Liu Shouguang's reign was the date that he was delivered to Li Cunxu after being captured in flight; one can also consider December 24, 913, when Yan's capital You Prefecture fell to Li Cunxu (and when Liu fled from it) as the end of his reign.
