Liang Na

Liang Na (Chinese: 梁妠; 116 – 6 April 150^[1]^[2]), formally Empress Shunlie (順烈皇后, literally "the kind and achieving empress"), was an empress during the Han dynasty. Her husband was Emperor Shun of Han. She later served as regent for his son Emperor Chong, and the two subsequent emperors from collateral lines, Emperor Zhi and Emperor Huan. As empress dowager and regent, she appeared to be diligent and honest, but she overly trusted her violent and corrupt elder brother Liang Ji, whose autocratic nature would eventually draw a coup d'etat from Emperor Huan after Empress Dowager Liang's death, leading to the destruction of the Liang clan.

^ Lady Liang's biography in Book of the Later Han indicated that she was 45 (by East Asian reckoning) when she died, but this is likely to be an error.
