Duke Hu of Qi

Duke Hu of Qi , personal name Lü Jing, was a monarch of the Qi state.

Duke Hu was a younger son of Duke Gui. When Duke Gui died, Duke Hu's older half-brother, Duke Ai, ascended the throne. Duke Ai had a dispute with the Ji state. King Yi of Zhou sided with the marquis of Ji and executed Duke Ai by boiling him to death. King Yi of Zhou then installed Duke Hu on the Qi throne.

Duke Hu moved the capital of Qi from Yingqiu to Bogu. The move was resented by the people of Yingqiu, who rebelled under the leadership of Duke Hu's half-brother, Duke Xian, who then took the throne.
