Deng Zhi (鄧芝) (d. 251) was a minister serving under Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms era of China. After the death of his lord Liu Bei, he was the one who was tasked to send an envoy to Eastern Wu to seal an alliance with them, which ended in success, which included the release of Zhang Yi. Deng Zhi and Zhao Yun led a vanguard during the Northern Expeditions together. Deng Zhi from then on became very famous for his bravery and wit, but most of all, he was known for his reputation of uncorrupted moral. When Deng Zhi was dead, the family did not have any money left for his burial and only with the aid from those who received Deng Zhi's help when he was alive, did the family give Deng a funeral.
