Ashina Chengqing (Chinese: 阿史那承慶, romanized: Āshǐnà Chéngqìng), also known by the alias Ashina Chengxiu (Chinese: 阿史那承休, romanized: Āshǐnà Chéngxiū), was a Turkic royal prince of the Ashina clan and a prominent general during the An Lushan rebellion. Originally a noble of the Second Turkic Khaganate, he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty in 742 and subsequently became a core member of the rebel Great Yan regime established by An Lushan.
The discovery of the Epitaph of Ashina Mingyi (his son) in Luoyang in 2016 led to new academic evaluations of his lineage and the nature of his titles within the rebel state.
