His rule was officially recognized by the Later Liang, thus he came to conflict with Liu Yan, the ruler of Southern Han. The Southern Han invaded in 930, capturing the capital Đại La with no resistance, and Khúc Thừa Mỹ was taken to Canton, where he was placed under comfortable house arrest. Chinese rule in Vietnam was thereby reestablished.
