Claim: Zhang Wenli was the first son of Wang Rong who prevented a mutiny against the Wang clan, and was eventually killed by Li Cunxu.
Evidence: Wang Rong, who was then the military governor of Chengde, was impressed by Zhang's speech and Zhang's claims about knowing how to lead an army, so he adopted Zhang as a son and changed his name to Wang Deming, entrusting much of the Chengde military affairs to him. However, in 921, he encouraged Wang Rong's guards to mutiny and slaughter the Wang clan. Upon hearing the fall of Zhao Prefecture, Zhang, who was then suffering from an abdominal illness, died in shock. His son Zhang Chujin took over command of the Chengde forces, but was eventually defeated and killed by Li Cunxu in 922.
