斛律光
After Gao Wei killed the general Hulü Guang on suspicion of treason in 572, he deposed Hulü Guang's daughter Empress Hulü. His powerful wet nurse Lu Lingxuan wanted to make her adoptive daughter Consort Mu Sheli, the mother of Gao Wei's crown prince Gao Heng, empress, but Empress Dowager Hu wanted Consort Hu to be empress. Not confident that she had sufficient persuasive power, however, she had to flatter and give gifts to Lady Lu, requesting her help. Lady Lu, seeing that Gao Wei favored Consort Hu at that time, she jointly submitted, with the official Zu Ting, the suggestion to make Consort Hu empress. In fall 572, Gao Wei created Consort Hu empress. To show his love for her, he made clothes out of pearls for her, although those clothes were later burned in a fire.
