Fan Ji

Fan Ji (Chinese: 樊姬; died 7th century BC) was the queen consort of King Zhuang of Chu.

[1][2] She acted as the political adviser of her spouse, and has been portrayed as a positive role model for women in Chinese history.

She was noted for her clever methods of demonstrating her opinions and convincing people to change.

[3][4] In one famous story, she felt her husband was hunting too much, so she stopped eating meat, as a subtle reproach to him.

He noted her actions, and ceased his inappropriate hunting.
