Li Fuguo (李輔國; 704 – November 12, 762[1]), né Li Jingzhong (李靜忠), known from 757 to 758 as Li Huguo (李護國), formally Prince Chou of Bolu (博陸醜王), was a Chinese eunuch, military general, and politician during the reign of Emperor Suzong (Li Heng) of the Chinese Tang dynasty. He had served Li Heng while Li Heng was crown prince under Li Heng's father Emperor Xuanzong and later supported Li Heng in ascending the throne during Anshi Rebellion, when Emperor Xuanzong's realm was thrown into confusion. He later became exceedingly powerful, in alliance with Emperor Suzong's wife Empress Zhang, but broke with her and killed her in 762 when Emperor Suzong died. He briefly became the paramount figure in the administration of Emperor Suzong's son and successor Emperor Daizong, but was removed and then killed by assassins sent by Emperor Daizong later that year.
^According to Tang Daizong's biography in the Old Book of Tang, Li was killed at night on the dingmao day in the 10th month of the 1st year of the Baoying era of Tang Suzong's/Daizong's reign. This date corresponds to 12 Nov 762 in the Gregorian calendar.(「(宝应元年十月)丁卯夜，盗杀李辅国于其第。」) Old Book of Tang, vol. 11.
