Liu Congxiao (Chinese: 留從效; 906-962), formally the Prince of Jinjiang (Chinese: 晉江王), was a general of the Chinese Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period state Min and the first ruler of Qingyuan Circuit. After Min's fall, he initially submitted to Southern Tang (which had conquered Min), but eventually, taking advantage of Southern Tang's inability to fully control the region, took the southern part of the former Min realm under his own control, albeit in nominal submission to Southern Tang. After Southern Tang's repeated defeats by Later Zhou, he also nominally submitted to Later Zhou's successor state Song.
