Cao Li (208 – May or June 229)[1] was a prince in the state of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms period of China. He was a son of Cao Pi, the first emperor of Wei. His mother, Consort Xu (じょひめ), was a concubine of Cao Pi.[4] He had two full sisters: the elder one was Princess Linfen (臨汾公主こうしゅ) while the younger one, who was unnamed, died early.[5] Cao Li was enfeoffed as the Duke of Qin (はたこう) in 221, with his dukedom in Jingzhao Commandery (きょうちょうぐん). In 222, he was elevated to the status of Prince of Jingzhao (きょうちょうおう). In 225, his title was changed to Prince of Yuancheng (元城もとしろおう).[6] He died in 229 during the reign of his half-brother Cao Rui. He has no offspring.[2]

In 231, Since Cao Li had no descendants, Cao Rui designated Cao Ti (曹悌), a son of Cao Kai (曹楷) and grandson of Cao Zhang, as Cao Li's heir; Cao Ti thus became the new Prince of Yuancheng. In 232, Cao Ti's title was changed to Prince of Liang (はりおう). Throughout the reigns of the subsequent Wei emperors, the number of taxable households in Cao Ti's princedom increased until it reached 4,500.[7]
