Empress Wang Fahui (Chinese: 王法慧; c.360[1] – 24 October 380[2]), formally Empress Xiaowuding (孝武定皇后, literally "the filial, martial, and quieting empress") was an empress during the Jin Dynasty (266–420). Her husband was Emperor Xiaowu. She was a niece of Wang Muzhi, another empress of the Eastern Jin.

  1. ^ Lady Wang's biography in Book of Jin indicated that she was 21 (by East Asian reckoning) when she died. Thus by calculation, her birth year should be about 360, i.e. the 4th year of the Sheng'ping era of the reign of Emperor Mu of Jin. The year corresponds to 3 Feb 360 to 20 Feb 361 in the Julian calendar, and has 13 months due to an additional leap month.
  2. ^ guiwei day of the 9th month of the 5th year of the Taiyuan era, per Emperor Xiaowu's biography in Book of Jin
