About Yu Yi

Yu Yi, courtesy name Zhigong, was a Chinese consort kin, calligrapher and military general of the Jin dynasty (266–420). He was a member of the prestigious Yu clan of Yingchuan as the youngest brother of the powerful Jin minister, Yu Liang and Yu Wenjun, wife of Emperor Ming of Jin. After Yu Liang died in 340, Yu Yi inherited his military positions, and with his other elder brother Yu Bing, who handled court affairs, they became a prominent political force during their time. As a commander, Yu Yi led a northern expedition from 343 to 344 against Later Zhao in the north and briefly fought Cheng-Han in the west before his untimely death in 345. Yu Yi's death allowed his former subordinate, Huan Wen, to take up his military command in Jingzhou from his sons with the help of Yi's court rival and brother-in-law, He Chong.
