Duke Jing of Qi (Chinese: 齊景公; pinyin: Qí Jǐng Gōng), personal name Lü Chujiu, was ruler of the Qi state from 547 BC to 490 BC.[1][2] After years of unrest as two powerful ministers, Cui Zhu (崔杼) and Qing Feng (慶封), sought to control the Qi state, Duke Jing appointed Yan Ying as his prime minister, and Qi entered a period of relative peace and prosperity.
