Shi Jian

emperor of the Chinese/Jie state Later Zhao
Years: 305 - 350

Shi Jian (died 350) is briefly (for 103 days) an emperor of the Chinese/Jie state Later Zhao.

He is the third of four short-lived emperors after the death of his father Shi Hu (Emperor Wu).

He is sometimes referred to by his title prior to becoming emperor, Prince of Yiyang.

Arguably, it is his machinations with his powerful adoptive nephew Shi Min against his brother Shi Zun that finally lead to Later Zhao's downfall.
