Ji Min, commonly known as "Min, Marquis of Jin" (Chinese: 晉侯緡; pinyin: Jìn Hóu Mín), was a marquis of the Jin. He was the last Jin monarch from the original line of the ruling Ji clan, before the throne was taken over by the branch from Quwo. He reigned for 27 years.
In 678 BC, Duke Wu of Quwo attacked and conquered Jin. Duke Wu of Quwo offered gifts to King Xi of Zhou, who in turn made Duke Wu of Quwo the next ruler of Jin.
