Empress Jing? (Jing? tenn?), also known as Empress-consort Jing? was a legendary Japanese empress. The empress or consort to Emperor Ch?ai, she also served as Regent from the time of her husband's death in 209 until her son Emperor ?jin acceded to the throne in 269. Up until the Meiji period, Jing? was considered to have been the 15th Japanese imperial ruler, according to the traditional order of succession; but a re-evaluation of the extant historical records caused her name to be removed from that list; and her son, Emperor ?jin, is today considered to have been the 15th sovereign.
