What is the brightest star in the southwest of Liaoning sky in China?

Every evening, when the sun goes down and it gets dark, a bright star will appear in the southwest, which is the earliest and very bright. This is Venus, also called Chang Geng Star and Morning Star. Venus sets later than the sun, so it is called Chang Geng Star, and because it comes out earlier than the sun, it is also called Morning Star.

Venus is the brightest star in the sky, and its brightness is comparable to that of 15 Sirius. China called it Taibai or Taibai Venus in ancient times. Venus, like Mercury, is an inner planet in Earth's orbit. Because Venus is sometimes the morning star and sometimes the evening star, China history books call the morning star "Qi Ming" and the evening star "Chang Gung". The ancient Greeks called it Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. The Romans called the goddess of love and beauty Venus, so Venus was also called Venus.
