Murong De (Chinese: 慕容德; 336–405), name changed in 400 to Murong Beide (慕容備德), courtesy name Xuanming (玄明), also known by his posthumous name as the Emperor Xianwu of Southern Yan (南燕獻武帝), was the founding emperor of the Xianbei-led Southern Yan dynasty of China. He was the son of Former Yan's founding prince Murong Huang (Prince Wenming) and younger brother to both Former Yan emperor Murong Jun (Emperor Jingzhao) and Later Yan emperor Murong Chui (Emperor Wucheng), and therefore was an imperial prince and general during the times of both states. After Murong Chui's son Murong Bao lost most of the Later Yan's territory to the Northern Wei dynasty, Murong De took troops under his own command south and established Southern Yan, which secured modern Shandong, but failed to expand further, and was destroyed by the Eastern Jin dynasty after Murong De's death and succession by his nephew Murong Chao. The Book of Jin described Murong De as having a stalwart and extraordinary appearance and was about two metres tall.
