Yang Meng (楊濛) (died 937), courtesy name Zhilong (志龍), formally Prince Ling of Linjiang (臨江靈王), was an imperial prince of the Chinese Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period state Wu.
[3] Shortly after, Xu had him sent out of the capital Guangling to serve as the military prefect (團練使, Tuanlianshi) of Chu Prefecture (楚州, in modern Huai'an, Jiangsu).
[5] Yang Meng was known to be close to his brother-in-law, the general Jiang Yanhui (蔣延徽), who had married one of his sisters.
[6] By 934, Yang Meng was carrying, in addition to the title of Prince of Linchuan, the honorary chancellor title of Zhongshu Ling (中書令) and military governor of Zhaowu Circuit (昭武, headquartered in modern Fuzhou, Jiangxi).
[7] By 937, it was becoming clear that Xu was about to get Yang Pu to yield the throne to him, as he, who by that point had been created the Prince of Qi, was taking on imperial trappings.
Meanwhile, the officer Guo Cong (郭悰) slaughtered Yang Meng's wife and children.
