Qi Maobian 齊貌辨 was a retainer of Lord Jingguo 靖郭君 of Qi 齊. On the accession of King Xuan 齊宣王 (r. 342-324), discrepancies between the Lord and the King emerged, and Lord Jingguo left the court. Qi Maobian was able to pursuade the King to receive the Lord again, and he was even made counsellor-in-chief.
