Liu Xi (Han-Zhao)
Liu Xi (Chinese: 劉熙; pinyin: Liú Xī; died 329), courtesy name Yiguang, was the crown prince and a son of Liu Yao, the final emperor of the Xiongnu-led Chinese Former Zhao dynasty, who was thrust into the leadership role after his father was captured by rival Later Zhao's forces, but was unable to resist Later Zhao and killed less than a year later.In 323, Liu Yin revealed his identity to the chief of the tribe, who promptly delivered him back to his father.Liu Xi became effectively acting emperor, and after consulting with Liu Yin, he decided to withdraw from the capital Chang'an west to Shanggui (上邽, in modern Tianshui, Gansu), the capital of the mountainous Qin Province (秦州, modern eastern Gansu), considered more easily defensible.However, as he besieged Chang'an, the Later Zhao general Shi Hu arrived and defeated him.He forcibly relocated all other officials and the large position (士族) clans of Qin and Yong (雍州, modern central and northern Shaanxi, aka Guanzhong) Provinces to the Later Zhao capital Xiangguo (襄國, in modern Xintai, Hebei), and massacred, in Luoyang, the members of the Xiongnu nobility.
