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