Empress Xiaojiesu (1508–1528), of the Chen clan, was a Chinese empress consort of the Ming dynasty, first empress to the Jiajing Emperor.

She was the daughter of Chen Wanyang (d. 1535). She was selected in to the palace of the Jiajing Emperor in 1522. Later that year, she was appointed empress upon the wish of the emperor's aunt, the Empress Dowager Zhang.[1] Because of the tense personal relationship between the Emperor and his aunt, however, he did not take a liking to Chen.[2] In 1528, she became pregnant. During the pregnancy, the Emperor exposed her to a fit of rage, which caused a fatal miscarriage.[3]

The Emperor did not permit her to be buried in the imperial mausoleum: this was not done before 1567.[4]
