Xi Zheng (郤正) (d. 278) was a high ranking minister serving under the Kingdom of Shu during the later years of the Three Kingdoms period of China. When the great Zhuge Liang left for the Northern Campaign, Xi Zheng was tasked to look after domestic affairs on his behalf. Following the fall of Shu, Xi Zheng was sent to the Wei kingdoms's capital city of Luo Yang. Xi Zheng followed in warning the supremely inept emperor of Shu, Liu Shan to not squander his time at banquets even after he lost his kingdom (even though Liu Shan was meant to be executed, for obvious reasons). Xi Zheng also served as secretary under Shu prior to this.
