An Qingxu (安慶緒) (730s – 10 April 759^[2]), né An Renzhi (安仁執), was a son of An Lushan, a general of the Chinese Tang dynasty who rebelled and took the imperial title, and then established his own state of Yan. An Qingxu served as the Prince of Jin in 756–757, and later killed his father and took the imperial title for himself. He was eventually defeated by Tang forces and cornered at Yecheng in present-day Hebei. After An Lushan's general Shi Siming lifted the siege, An Qingxu met Shi to thank him, but Shi arrested and executed him.

^ Volume 219 of Zizhi Tongjian recorded that An was made crown prince and then emperor on the yimao day of the 1st month of the 2nd year of the Zhide era of Tang Suzong's reign. This date corresponds to 30 Jan 757 on the Julian calendar. [(至德二年正月)乙卯旦，庄宣言于外，云禄山疾亟。立晋王庆绪为太子，寻即帝位，]
^ ^a ^b Volume 221 of Zizhi Tongjian recorded that An was killed three days after the siege of Yecheng was lifted, which happened on the renshen day of the 3rd month of the 2nd year of the Qianyuan era of Tang Suzong's reign. This date corresponds to 7 Apr 759 on the Julian calendar. Thus, by calculation, An was killed on the yihai day of the same month, which corresponds to 10 Apr 759 on the Julian calendar.
