Mu Tipo
Northern Zhou's Emperor Wu created Gao Wei the Duke of Wen. However, later in 577, feeling insecure about the Gao clan, he accused them of plotting treason with Mu Tipo, and massacred nearly all members of the Gao clan. Empress Dowager Hu was not killed, and indeed, she behaved very debauched. She died during the early part of the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui (581–600), but the exact year is not known.
