Marquess Xian of Zhao (died 409 BCE) (simplified Chinese: 赵献侯; traditional Chinese: 趙獻侯; pinyin: Zhào Xiàn Hóu) or Zhao Xianzi was a ruler of the State of Zhao from 423 BCE to 409 BCE during the Warring States period of ancient China.
After Zhào Huàn became leader he was banished from the Zhao capitals of Zhongmu County (Chinese: 中牟) (in modern-day Henan) and Dai Commandery (near modern-day Yuzhou in Hebei) by Zhao Huanzi (simplified Chinese: 赵桓子; traditional Chinese: 趙桓子), who usurped Zhào Huàn's position and installed himself as ruler.
A year later, Zhào Huánzĭ died and the local people killed all his sons.
After he died he was awarded the posthumous title of Zhào Xiànzĭ whilst his son became Marquess Lie of Zhao (simplified Chinese: 赵烈侯; traditional Chinese: 趙烈侯; pinyin: Zhào Liè Hóu) who subsequently altered his father's posthumous title to Marquess Xian of Zhao.
