Liu Ying was in office for seven years, ranking among the best in the world. He took part in pacifying the rebellion between Zhu and Lu and became the king of Chu. The following year, Wang Jiwei, a warlord of the Han Dynasty, began to build his mausoleum. Because the owner of the tomb was in office for a short time, he died suddenly and the tomb was not completed.

The construction of the tomb of the King of Chu in Lion Mountain has not been completed in a hurry, which is almost the same as Liu Yingke's four years in office. 1984 found more than 4,000 Han terracotta warriors and horses, which were important funerary objects of the king of Chu. The tomb of the king of Chu excavated by 1994 was once rated as "Top Ten Archaeological Discoveries in China during the Ninth Five-Year Plan". The jade clothes unearthed in the tomb are the best jade clothes unearthed in China, with the largest number of jade pieces and the most exquisite craftsmanship.

The tomb of the King of Chu, hidden in the mountains with a stone as the room, is large in scale and unique in structure, with rich funerary objects unearthed, including hundreds of jade articles and nearly 300 seals and mud seals, which are rare in China.
