Chu Suanzi, formally Empress Kangxian, at times as Empress Dowager Chongde (崇德太后), was an empress of the Eastern Jin. Her husband was Emperor Kang; outliving him by 40 years, she was an empress dowager during the reigns of five emperors, including serving as regents for three of them: her son Emperor Mu (344–357), her nephew-in-law Emperor Ai (364–366), and her cousin-in-law Emperor Xiaowu (373–376). Despite the power she held, she appeared to largely yield to the judgement of high-level officials who advised her and rarely made decisions on her own.
