劉永字公壽，先主子，後主庶弟也。 Liu Yong, styled Gongshou, was Liu Bei's son and Liu Shan's younger half-brother.

章武元年六月，使司徒靖立永為魯王，策曰：「小子永，受茲青土。 In the sixth month of Zhangwu 1 Liu Bei ordered Xu Jing, minister of education, to enfeoff Liu Yong as prince of Lu. The edict ran: "Young Liu Yong, receive this azure soil.

建興八年230年，改封為甘陵王。 In Jianxing 8 (230 CE) his title was changed to prince of Ganling.

初，永憎宦人黃皓，皓既信任用事，譖構永於後主，後主稍疏外永，至不得朝見者十餘年。 Liu Yong hated the eunuch Huang Hao. Once Huang Hao gained power he slandered Liu Yong to Liu Shan, who gradually kept him at arm's length until for more than ten years he could not attend court.

咸熙元年，永東遷洛陽，拜奉車都尉，封為鄉侯。 In Xianxi 1 Liu Yong went east to Luoyang, became commandant of the imperial carriage, and received a village marquisate.

劉理字奉孝，亦後主庶弟也，與永異母。 Liu Li, styled Fengxiao, was another younger half-brother of Liu Shan, not born to the same mother as Liu Yong.

唯永孫玄奔蜀，李雄偽署安樂公以嗣禪後。 Only Liu Yong’s grandson Liu Xuan escaped back into Shu, where Li Xiong named him duke of Anle in mock succession to Liu Shan.
