At the end of Li Yu's life, the History of the Song Dynasty edited by Li Dao in the Song Dynasty, the History of the Song Dynasty edited by Ke Weiqi in the Yuan Dynasty and the History of the New Song Dynasty edited by Ke Weiqi in the Ming Dynasty did not say anything about Li Yu's poisoning. Bi Yuan of the A Qing era once said in his book, "Li Houzhu's death, his book said a lot, gave him a bad end." Among them, the most detailed and concrete record is "Silent Record" written by Wang Luo, a poet in the Song Dynasty, which leads to the saying that "my late master died of anger".
According to Records, after Li Yu entered the Song Dynasty, Song Taizong sent Xu Xuan to visit Li Yu. Li Yu hated the national subjugation so much that he "cried and sat silent", which displeased Emperor Taizong.
In 978, China celebrated his 42nd birthday on Valentine's Day after three years of peace and prosperity, so he called concubines at his residence, wrote "The Mermaid" to remember the past and the motherland, and ordered prostitutes in the Southern Tang Dynasty to sing. Song Taizong was very angry after hearing this, and all the crimes were punished, so he gave Li Yu a morning medicine.
Traction medicine, said to be traditional Chinese medicine Semen Strychni, is cold and bitter, and has strong affinity for the central nervous system. Li Yu took medicine after drinking, helped by alcohol, and convulsed all over. Finally, the head and feet were connected and died. It looked like a tractor.
