King Xi of Zhou (died 677 BC) (Chinese: 周僖王; pinyin: Zhōu Xī Wáng), personal name Ji Huqi, was a king of the Chinese Zhou dynasty.[1]
He was the successor to his father King Zhuang,[2] and was in turn succeeded by his son, King Hui.
By the time of King Xi's reign, China proper had dissolved into a multitude of Warring States, only nominally subject to the Eastern Zhou king, who was no longer even the most powerful figure (that was Duke Huan of the Qi state).[3]
