Eo Yang Siu (Yong-Shuh) was a famous scholar of the Song Dynasty; and he
filled high official posts both in the capital and provinces, under the
Emperor Ren-Tsong.
Being a man of integrity and independence he remonstrated with his
Imperial master on several occasions, and sometimes suffered temporarily
for his courage. His character, however, was appreciated by the Emperor,
and restoration to favour followed every temporary eclipse. After his
death he was canonized as Wen Chong Kong. His literary works are
numerous.
