Not to be confused with Zhang Jianzhi (footballer).
Zhang Jianzhi (張柬之) (625[1]–706), courtesy name Mengjiang (孟將), formally Prince Wenzhen of Hanyang (漢陽文貞王),[2] was an official of the Chinese Tang Dynasty and Wu Zetian's Zhou Dynasty, serving as chancellor during the reigns of Wu Zetian and her son Emperor Zhongzong. He was a key figure in the coup that overthrew Wu Zetian and restored Emperor Zhongzong in 705 but was later exiled due to false accusations instigated by Wu Zetian's nephew Wu Sansi and died in exile.
^Zhang's birth year of 625 is based on his biographies in the Old Book of Tang and the New Book of Tang, both of which indicated that he was 81 at the time of his death in 706. However, the New Book of Tang also indicated that he was in his 70s when he was summoned to the capital in 689 which, if true, would make him born in the 610s.

^Historical accounts about Zhang and his fellow coup leaders generally referred to them as the "five princes," and, as their titles were restored after Emperor Ruizong's ascension, they were generally considered to have been restored to their princely ranks, although Zhang's biography in the Old Book of Tang quoted an edict of Emperor Ruizong's honoring him as the Duke of Hanyang, and therefore it is not completely clear whether Zhang Jianzhi, posthumously, was formally referred to as a duke or a prince. See Old Book of Tang, vol. 91.
