Cao Jun (died August or September 259),[a]courtesy nameZi'an, was a prince of the state ofCao Wei in theThree Kingdoms period of China. He was a son ofCao Cao, a warlord who rose to prominence towards theend of the Han dynasty and laid the foundation for the Cao Wei state. His mother was Lady Qin (秦夫人), a concubine of Cao Cao. She also bore Cao Cao another son,Cao Xuan.[2] Cao Jun was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Mei (郿侯) in 216 during the reign ofEmperor Xian in theEastern Han dynasty. His marquisate was changed to Xiangyi County (襄邑縣; present-daySui County,Shangqiu,Henan) in the following year. In 221, a year after Cao Jun's elder half-brotherCao Pi ended the Han dynasty and established the state ofCao Wei, Cao Jun was promoted from a marquis to a duke. In 222, he received the title "Prince of Chenliu" (陳留王). Two years later, his princedom was changed from Chenliu (陳留; around present-dayKaifeng, Henan) to Xiangyi County. In 232, during the reign of Cao Pi's sonCao Rui, Cao Jun's princedom was relocated back to Chenliu. Cao Jun died in 259 during the reign ofCao Mao.[3]
Cao Jun was succeeded by his son, Cao Ao (曹澳). The number of taxable households in Cao Ao's princedom increased throughout the reigns of the Wei emperors until it reached 4,700.[4]
