Xici
- For the rayon in Azerbaijan, see Khizi Rayon; for its capital, see Xızı.
Xizi was a book of I Ching written during the fifth century BC. Its origins are unknown, but it is suspected of being the product of scholars who did not believe prevailing Daoist thought. Among the mythologies stressed in the book is that of Fuxi, the emperor-god.
Xizi is also a nickname for the great Chinese beauty Xi Shi. Literally it means Xi Lady. Since the West Lake at Hangzhou was believed to be the legendary incarnation of Xi Shi, thus it is also called Xizi Hu (lake).
