Biography

Đinh Hạng Lang[2] was second son of emperor Đinh Tiên Hoàng. His personality was so meek that his father has cherished.

In 978, Đinh Hạng Lang was consecrated as the crown prince with oppositions of officials. It also made Đinh Tiên Hoàng's first son Đinh Khuông Liễn to fret.

Spring 979, Khuông Liễn has assigned his inferiors to assassinate Hạng Lang. This event made Đinh Tiên Hoàng and his wives at once worried and felt wretched, however they were impotent entirely.[3][4]

Even so, in the reassurance of parents, prince Khuông Liễn appointed carpenters to carve 100 columns of the Uṣṇīṣa Vijaya Dhāraṇī Sūtra for the saying a mass to his unlucky younger brother.[5] Their vestiges had fallen into oblivion for almost 1,000 years and were only discovered in 1963.
