King Jing of Zhou, (Chinese: 周景王; pinyin: Zhōu Jĭng Wáng), or King Ching of Chou, was the twenty-fourth king of the Chinese Zhou Dynasty and the twelfth of Eastern Zhou. He succeeded to the throne after the death of King Ling of Zhou. King Jing reigned from 544 BC to 520 BC. The country was in financial ruin during King Jing’s reign and even supplies had to be bought from neighboring countries. He died in 520 of a disease and he was briefly succeeded by his son, King Dao of Zhou.
