Sun Ru

Sun Ru (Chinese: 孫儒; died July 3, 892), formally the Prince of Le'an (樂安王), was a Chinese military general and politician during the Tang dynasty. He initially served as a general under the pretender emperor Qin Zongquan. After Qin's defeat, he nominally submitted to Tang imperial authority and contended for control of the central-lower Yangtze River region with Yang Xingmi; he was eventually defeated by Yang and executed. His subordinate Ma Yin was the eventual founder of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period state Chu.

In this Chinese name, the family name is Sun.
