李惠宗
Quách Bốc occupied the citadel and subsequently enthroned the young prince Lý Thẩm. Cao Tông fled to Tam Nông, Phú Thọ and lodged at the residence of Hà Vạn, who was a minority leader holding a potential force. The Crown Prince Sảm, who later became the succeeding king Lý Huệ Tông, fled to Hải Ấp, Thái Bình with his mother, Noble Consort Đoàn and his two younger sisters. Sảm lodged at the residence of Trần Lý, who was also an indigenous squire. Sảm married Trần Thị Dung, who was Trần Lý's daughter. Then he conferred the title Minh Tự on Trần Lý and the title Commander of Anterior Citadel (a title also held by Lý Thái Tổ during the time he was an official of Anterior Le Dynasty) on the brother-in-law of Trần Lý named Tô Trung Từ. They recruited soldiers from the surrounding and managed to initiate a conflict against Quách Bốc.
