Empress Xin (辛皇后, personal name unknown) (died 761) was an empress and wife of Shi Siming, a general of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty who became an emperor of the rebel Yan state during Anshi Rebellion. The future Empress Xin was said to be the daughter of gentry. When Shi Siming was young and still poor and of local station, she insisted on marrying him, and eventually got her wish. She had at least one son with him, Shi Chaoqing (史朝清), but his oldest son Shi Chaoyi was not her son. After Shi Siming, who had served under Yan's founder An Lushan, killed An Lushan's son and successor An Qingxu in 759, he declared himself emperor of Yan and created her empress. He was said to have favored both her and her son Shi Chaoqing, and might have created Shi Chaoqing crown prince.〔The sources conflict with each other as to whether Shi Chaoqing was, indeed, created crown prince. Shi Siming's biographies in the ''Book of Tang'' and the ''New Book of Tang'' indicated that he was only considering it, but the ''Jimen Jiluan'', an account of the Anshi Rebellion written by the Tang Dynasty historian Ping Zhimei (平致美) no longer extant but often cited by others,() indicated that Shi Siming did create Shi Chaoqing crown prince. Compare ''Book of Tang'', vol. 200, part 1, and ''New Book of Tang'', (vol. 225, part 1 ), with ''Bo Yang Edition of the Zizhi Tongjian'', vol. 53 (), citing ''Jimen Jiluan''.〕 When he attacked the Tang eastern capital Luoyang with Shi Chaoyi, he left her at his base Fanyang (范陽, modern Beijing), with Shi Chaoqing in charge. In 761, after Shi Chaoyi, in fear that Shi Siming would kill him, had Shi Siming killed first, he sent messengers, in Shi Siming's name, to Fanyang to kill Shi Chaoqing, and Empress Xin was also killed. == Notes and references == * ''New Book of Tang'', (vol. 225, part 1 ). * ''Zizhi Tongjian'', vols. 221, 222. |- 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Empress Xin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
