Lý Chiêu Hoàng (Hán t?: ???; 1218 - 1278), empress of Vietnam, was the last ruler of the Lý Dynasty. She ascended to the throne at the age of seven in 1225, when she was appointed to power by her ailing father Lý Hu? Tông, on the advice of Tr?n Th? Ð?. Tr?n Th? Ð?'s power brokering had other aims, however, and Lý Chiêu Hoàng was soon married off to Tr?n Th? Ð?'s nephew, Tr?n C?nh (temple name Tr?n Thái Tông), also seven years of age. Lý Chiêu Hoàng quickly yielded the throne to Tr?n C?nh, who thus became the Emperor of Vietnam and founder of the Tr?n Dynasty.
When Lý Chiêu Hoàng was unable to produce a male heir by the age of 19, Tr?n Th? Ð? orchestrated a scandalous wife-swap in 1237 between Tr?n C?nh and his elder brother Tr?n Li?u.

When Lý Chiêu Hoàng was unable to produce a male heir by the age of 19, Tr?n Th? Ð? orchestrated a scandalous wife-swap in 1237 between Tr?n C?nh and his elder brother Tr?n Li?u. Due to the swap, Lý Chiêu Hoàng was demoted from empress to princess. Despite the ensuing uproar, Tr?n Th? Ð? was eventually able to pacify the court, with Tr?n Li?u narrowly avoiding execution as punishment for his reaction to the swap.
