	Gao Lishi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gao Lishi (高力士) (684-762) was a eunuch official during Emperor Xuanzong of Tang China's reign, reaching high ranks like Biaoqi Grand General (驃騎大將軍) and Jinkai Fu Yitong Sansi (進開府儀同三司).
		Gao introduced Yang Guifei to Xuanzong, and was with her when the Imperial army (blaming her and her family for the Anshi Rebellion) demanded her death.
		It is unknown whether she hanged herself, asked Gao to do it to spare herself the army's execution, or if he took it upon himself to kill her (for pity, duty, or otherwise).

	Yang Guifei - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Three years after Emperor Xuanzong's wife Wu Huifei (武惠妃) died in 737, the highly-placed eunuch advisor Gao Lishi arranged for Xuanzong to meet Yang in Xingwen Fountain Palace (幸溫泉宮).
		The emperor then made Yang divorce her husband the prince, and become a nun with the sobriquet Taizhen (太真 "Utmost Truth") living in Taizhen Palace.
		Rather than turn herself over to them, Yang (then 38) hanged herself or was hanged by Gao Lishi.

		Emperor Gao Zhong of the Tang Dynasty always used two sets of chopsticks and spoons when he dined; one set for taking the dishes from the plates, and the other for eating.

		Gao Lishi took advantage of the opportunity and told Lady Yang that in Li Bai's poem he compared her to Zhao Feiyan of the Han Dynasty, which was an insult to her.

		In the Qin dynasty, Zhao Gao was a eunuch but gained the great favor of Shi Huangdi because he knew how to read and write (something that most eunuchs can't do) and memorized entire chapters of the Qin legal code.
		Zhao Gao had huge ambitions and twisted the government into a sycophant court that obeys him and destroyed all rivals (Li Si included).
		After forcing Hu Hai to commit suicide Zhao Gao actually wanted to ascend the throne wearing the Emperor's robes, but failed to do so as he felt dizzy when ascending the steps to the dragon seat, and thus he made Zi Ying as the next emperor who killed him.
