Person
Gao Wei
Gao Wei was emperor of the Northern Qi from 565 to 577. His reign was marked by court favouritism and the execution of capable generals such as Hulü Guang, which weakened the army. Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou took the Qi capital Ye in 577, and Gao Wei was captured and later put to death.
