Pye Min(Burmese:ပြည်မင်း,pronounced[pjémɪ́ɰ̃];26 May 1619 – 14 April 1672) was king ofToungoo dynastyfrom 1661 to 1672. Pye Min was a son of KingThalun.During the reign of his brotherPindale,the Prince ofPyay(Prome) led the Burmese resistance againstSouthern MingandQingincursions.

King Pindale, however, lost his popularity and Pye was urged to take the throne. Pye staged a coup in 1661, overthrowing Pindale and crowning himself King of Ava.^[5]^{: 220–223}

Pye was determined to reduce the power ofYongli Emperorof Southern Ming atSagaingand held a conference of Chinese officials. Yongli suspected this as an assassination trick and instead ordered his armies to clash with the Burmese. However, the Chinese were largely decimated. In 1662, the Qing armies invaded Burma and Pye Min decided to leave the last Ming Emperor to the Qing. Yongli Emperor was carried out of Burma.

There was aMonrebellion aroundMartabanin 1661 and in 1662Lan Nawasinvaded by the Siamese armiesunder KingNaraiwho held the city temporarily. The rest of his reign were largely uneventful and Pye Min died in 1672, succeeded by his sonNarawara.
