Yao Chong (650-September 28, 721), born Yao Yuanchong, known 700s-713 by the courtesy name of Yuanzhi, formally Duke Wenxian of Liang, was an official of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty and Wu Zetian''s Zhou Dynasty, serving as chancellor under four sovereigns Wu Zetian, her sons Emperor Zhongzong and Emperor Ruizong, and her grandson Emperor Xuanzong.
