Yu Chao'en (魚朝恩; 722 – April 10, 770[1]), formally the Duke of Han (韓公), was a Chinese eunuch, military general, and politician during the Tang dynasty. He was powerful early during the reign of Emperor Daizong and was feared by others, including chancellors. At the urging of the chancellor Yuan Zai, Emperor Daizong secretly executed him at a meeting in 770, although Emperor Daizong publicly claimed that he committed suicide.
