Although it is difficult to find information about Gao Huitong in history, she does exist and is indeed a great beauty. At that time, I was a "swordsman" in Li Shimin, but I didn't know her specific work, but I found some clues in Wei Zhi's attached book. According to the records in the book, the man with a knife is probably the last female official in Li Shimin's harem, and can also be called a female bodyguard with a knife. In this way, it is more weighty and conforms to the identity of Li Shimin, the king of Qin.
Although the female knife man is not well-known, she is too beautiful, and it is said that she is even more beautiful than Wu Zetian, because the description of Gao Huitong in the epitaph directly compares Luo Shen and Zhen Fu. "Qiu Qin Wang Dao Gao Ren Epitaph" wrote, "(see) Luo Shen's words scoffed at the princess's charming attitude; Watch the magpie nest swim and admire the queen's order; It is too early to grieve for Whelan before the autumn wind starts; First frost is zero, and peaches and plums fall first. " The epitaph of this tombstone tells that when Li Shimin was the king of Qin, a beautiful woman came to the harem, which completely subverted people's cognition of the records of Li Shimin's harem.
However, after all, a beautiful woman will end her life. Although she was deeply loved by Li Shimin during her lifetime, she died before the outbreak of the "Xuanwumen Change". At that time, Hui Gao had been in the palace for less than four years. If this great beauty had lasted until the "Xuanwumen Change", today's history books would have recorded this "knife man" Hui Gao Tong!
