賢良祠, Cultural shrine in Beijing, China.

Xianliang Ci is a shrine for meritorious officials of the Qing dynasty at 103 Di'anmen West Street, facing south on about 740 square metres. Its main hall and rear chamber each have five bays, with east and west side halls. The stele of the Yongzheng Emperor stands in the compound, and the emperor's inscription reads "Revere Loyalty, Remember the Past". The front gate now carries a black plaque with gold characters for Tongrentang, the pharmacy that rents the building.

The Xianliang Ci was built by imperial order of the Yongzheng Emperor in 1728, the eighth year of his reign, west of Di'anmen, and completed the following year. The emperor bestowed a plaque reading "Revere Loyalty, Remember the Old". It held 78 meritorious officials at first, later 99 in all. In 1755 the remains of E'ertai were removed after the Hu Zhongzao case.

The shrine's name, Xianliang Ci, means "Shrine of the Worthy and Good," and its plaque bears the Yongzheng emperor's calligraphy "Chongzhong Nianjiu" (Revere Loyalty, Cherish the Old). Today the compound is rented to Tongrentang, which runs a pharmacy here; tour groups often stop to buy medicine, and some visitors mistake the shrine for the old Tongrentang shop.
