description: "Li Yiji was a Chinese scholar who served as an adviser to Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han dynasty. He is best known for helping Liu Bang gain control of Chenliu during the rebellions towards the end of the Qin dynasty, and for advising Liu Bang to seize Aocang during the Chu–Han Contention. In 204 BC, Liu Bang sent him as an emissary to persuade Tian Guang, the King of Qi, to surrender. Li Yiji was initially successful, but was boiled alive by Tian Guang after the latter thought he had tricked him to buy time for Liu Bang's general Han Xin to attack Qi."
