Emperor Fei of Northern Qi
Emperor Fei of Northern Qi ((北)齊廢帝) (545 – c.October 561), personal name Gao Yin (高殷), courtesy name Zhengdao (正道), posthumous name Prince Mindao of Ji'nan (濟南閔悼王), was briefly an emperor of the Chinese Northern Qi dynasty. He was the oldest son of the first emperor, Emperor Wenxuan (Gao Yang), and he became emperor after Emperor Wenxuan's death in 559. However, in his young age, the officials fought over power, and in 560, Emperor Fei's uncle Gao Yan the Prince of Changshan killed the prime minister Yang Yin and took over power, soon deposing Emperor Fei and taking the throne himself as Emperor Xiaozhao. In 561, fearful of prophecies that Emperor Fei would return to the throne, Emperor Xiaozhao had him put to death.
