Chen Jianhu (simplified Chinese: 陈鉴胡; traditional Chinese: 陳鑑胡; ?–1449), leader of a mid-Ming dynasty rebellion in Zhejiang, was originally a miner. He was part of the rebel army led by Ye Zongliu (葉宗留), which was located on the border of Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi. In 1448, he had a falling out with Ye Zongliu and defected to Fujian, joining forces with Deng Maoqi (according to the History of Ming, Chen Jianhu and Ye Zongliu had a disagreement, leading to Ye's murder). Chen Jianhu successfully captured Songyang and Longquan, declared himself the King of Taiping (太平國王) and used the era name of "Taiding" (泰定).[1][2][3][a] In 1449, he was persuaded to surrender to the Ming dynasty and was taken to Beijing, where he was imprisoned and executed by the Jinyiwei.
