King Xuan of Zhou, personal name Ji Jing, was the eleventh king of the Chinese Zhou dynasty. Estimated dates of his reign are 827/25–782 BC.[1]
He worked to restore royal authority after the Gonghe regency. He fought the "Western Barbarians" (probably Xianyun) and another group on the Huai River to the southeast. In his ninth year he called a meeting of all the lords. Later he intervened militarily in succession struggles in the states of Lu, Wey and Qi. Sima Qian says "from this time on, the many lords mostly rebelled against royal commands."[1] According to Zhang Shoujie's annotation Correct Meanings (史記正義) to Sima Qian's Records of the Grand Historian,[2] King Xuan is said to have killed the innocent Du Bo and according to tradition was himself killed by an arrow fired by Du Bo's ghost.[3] His son King You was the last king of the Western Zhou.
The Stone Drums of Qin were long mistakenly ascribed to King Xuan.[4]
