Liu Ju (Chinese: 劉據; early 128[3] – 30 September 91 BC), formally known as Crown Prince Wei (衛太子) and posthumously as Crown Prince Li (戾太子, literally "the Unrepentant Crown Prince", "Li" being an unflattering name) was a Western Han Dynasty crown prince. He was the eldest son and the heir apparent to his father, Emperor Wu of Han, until his death at age 38 (by East Asian reckoning) during the political turmoil that occurred during 91 BC.
Liu Ju led an uprising against his father's army and died as a consequence of the rebellion. Emperor Wu sent soldiers to hunt Liu Ju down, so Liu Ju committed suicide by hanging himself. Liu Ju's two sons and the family hosting them all died when government soldiers broke into their house and killed everyone.

- ^ xinhai day of the 8th month of the 2nd year of the Zheng'he era, per Emperor Wu's biography in Book of Han. This was about three weeks after his mother Wei Zifu committed suicide.
- ^ Liu Ju's mother was made empress on 30 April 128 BCE on account of his birth. Thus, Liu Ju should be born in early 128 BC.
