Emperor Fei of Chen
Emperor Fei of Chen (陳廢帝) (died 570), personal name Chen Bozong (陳伯宗), courtesy name Fengye (奉業), childhood name Yaowang (藥王), also known by his post-deposition title of Prince of Linhai (臨海王), was an emperor of the Chinese Chen dynasty. He was the son and heir of Emperor Wen, but after he came to the throne in 566, the imperial administration fell into infighting almost immediately. The victor, Emperor Fei's uncle Chen Xu (Emperor Xuan), deposed Emperor Fei in winter 568 and took the throne himself.
