李景谌（? - ?），唐朝大臣，在唐睿宗第一次在位、武则天临朝期间，684年担任宰相（同凤阁鸾台平章事）。

李景谌任宰相之前的经历几乎没有记载，《旧唐书》和《新唐书》一般有宰相的传，却都没有他的传。684年九月，李景谌时任凤阁舍人（中书舍人），当时英国公李敬业反对睿宗的母亲武则天临朝称制在扬州造反，宰相裴炎说太后将权力交给皇帝，叛乱自然平定。李景谌证明裴炎必定谋反。结果，武则天以裴炎勾结李敬业谋反之罪，将他处死。李景谌被太后武则天任命为同凤阁鸾台平章事，成为宰相。仅仅十天之后，李景谌罢相，为司宾少卿。之后史书没有了李景谌的记载。

Li Jingchen (李景谌) was briefly a chancellor of the Chinese Tang Dynasty, during the first reign of Emperor Ruizong.

Little is known about Li Jingchen's career before or after his brief stint as chancellor, as, atypical for a chancellor, he did not have a biography in either the Old Book of Tang or the New Book of Tang. As of 684, he was serving as Fengge Sheren (凤阁舍人), a mid-level official at the legislative bureau of government (凤阁, Fengge), when the head of the legislative bureau, the chancellor Pei Yan, was accused of treason after angering Emperor Ruizong's powerful mother and regent Empress Dowager Wu (later known as Wu Zetian) by suggesting that she return imperial authorities to Emperor Ruizong. Many imperial officials spoke in Pei's defense, but Li Jingchen was said to be one of the officials who testified that Pei was planning treason. Empress Dowager Wu arrested and demoted many officials who defended Pei, while promoting Li and the official who investigated Pei, Qian Weidao, to chancellor positions—in Li's case, with the designation of Tong Fenge Luantai Pingchangshi (同凤阁鸾台平章事), signifying a lesser designation than the Tong Fenge Luantai Sanpin (同凤阁鸾台三品) designation that Qian received. However, the day after Pei was executed—just 10 days after Li was made chancellor—Empress Dowager Wu removed the chancellor designation from Li, making him the deputy minister of vassal affairs (司宾少卿, Sibin Shaoqing) instead. There was no further record about Li in official histories, and there appears to be no historical record of his death.
