- ^ The start of Yang Wo's reign as the Prince of Hongnong depends on one's view of what constitutes "reigning." Yang Wo was, after the death of his father Yang Xingmi, created the Prince of Hongnong by Li Yan, as representative of Emperor Zhaozong of Tang, but the title was a Tang vassal title. In 907, Tang ended by virtue of Zhu Quanzhong's seizure of the throne from Emperor Zhaozong's son Emperor Ai, but Yang Wo, along with several other Tang vassals, refused to recognize Zhu's Later Liang. Therefore, he could be regarded to be an independent ruler starting from that date.
