Zhao Xun (趙詢, 1192–1220) was a Chinese prince. He was the first of the three adopted crown princes[1] of the childless Emperor Ningzong.[2] He was a descendant of Emperor Taizu through Zhao Dezhao.[3] He was skilled at calligraphy.
His original name was Zhao Yuyuan and he originally lived in Qingtian. When he was only 6, he was adopted by the childless Emperor Ningzong in 1198. After he was adopted, he changed his name to Zhao Yan.[4]
In 1202, he worshipped the military martial arts. He became Crown Prince in 1207. Zhao Yan's son, Zhao Naiyu (趙乃裕), was born around this time but the exact date is unknown. Zhao Naiyu's profile in Geni estimates his birth between 1197 and 1257. It is more likely however, that an accurate estimated birth range is from 1205 to 1220.[3]
Zhao Yan changed his name to Zhao Chu at an unspecified date. Zhao Chu was renamed Zhao Xun at an unspecified date. He died from dysentery in 1220.[5][6] He was given the posthumous name Jingxian Taizi (景献太子).
