Zhu Changxun (Chinese: 朱常洵; 22 February 1586 – 2 March 1641) was the third son of the Ming dynasty Wanli Emperor. His mother, Noble Consort Zheng, was a favoured concubine and, in efforts to please her, the emperor attempted to have Zhu made heir apparent,[1] but failed to overturn the rule of primogeniture.[2] After the fall of the Ming, however, Zhu's son, Zhu Yousong, became emperor of the Southern Ming dynasty.
