陳登
Chen Deng appears as a minor character in the 14th-century historical novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which romanticises the historical figures and events before and during the Three Kingdoms period. Although the fictionalised Chen Deng in the novel is generally similar to his historical counterpart, the novel exaggerates and focuses more on the roles played by him and his father Chen Gui in Lü Bu's downfall. The novel also includes a fictitious account of him helping Liu Bei seize control of Xu Province from Che Zhou (), and advising Liu Bei on how to deal with Cao Cao before the Battle of Guandu.
