Yelü Bei, also known as Yelü Tuyu, posthumously honored Emperor Wenxian Qinyi with the temple name Yizong, formally known as Ren Huangwang during his lifetime, known as Dongdan Muhua and then Li Zanhua as a Later Tang Dynasty subject, was the eldest son of Emperor Taizu of Liao, the founder of the Liao Dynasty. He was declared successor to the Emperor Taizu in 916, but never succeeded to the throne.
