Xiao Chaogui (simplified Chinese: 萧朝贵; traditional Chinese: 蕭朝貴; pinyin: Xiāo Cháoguì) was an important leader during the Taiping Rebellion against the Qing government 1850-1864. He was a brother-in-law to Hong Xiuquan and was able to serve as a mouth piece for Jesus Christ during many 'heavenly visitations' Jesus paid to the Taiping. Because of his importance he was awarded the title of the "West King".

Xiao was killed in action during the siege of Changsha in 1852. [1]
