A military commander of the Western Han Dynasty in China. Born in Kuaiji (Wu County, Jiangsu Province). He first served as a soldier in the Western Regions Expedition, and during the reign of Emperor Xuan, he became a Shilang and established a military base in Quli (southwest of Tingzhou, east of Luntaicheng), where he defeated Cheshi. Due to this achievement, he became the Sima of Wei and governed the countries of the Southern Region west of Shanshan. At that time, there was internal conflict among the Xiongnu, and when Bi, the King of Zheng, surrendered, Zheng Ji sent him to the Han with 50,000 soldiers. After this, Zheng Ji's influence spread throughout the countries of the Western Regions, and the Han appointed him as the Western Regions' Chief Protector of Cavalry, who controlled both the north and south roads, and made him the Marquis of Anyuan, establishing a shogunate in Wului (Kuche region, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region) to protect the countries.

中国，前漢の武将。会稽（江蘇省呉県）の人。初め兵卒として西域遠征に従軍し，宣帝のとき侍郎となって渠黎（庭州南西，輪台城東）に屯田し，車師を破った。この功によって衛司馬となり，鄯善以西の南道諸国を統轄した。当時匈奴で内紛があり，日逐王比が来降すると，鄭吉は 5万の兵をもって日逐王比を漢に送った。これ以後鄭吉の勢威は西域諸国にふるい，漢は鄭吉を南北 2道を領する西域都護騎都尉に任じ，安遠侯に封じて，烏塁城（シンチヤン〈新疆〉ウイグル〈維吾爾〉自治区庫車地方）に幕府を置き，諸国を鎮護させた。
