Gao Yanei

Gao Yanei

Gao Yanei (高衙内) was the foster son of Gao Qiu, the high-ranking Song official and eventual nemesis of the Liangshan heroes in the novel "The Water Margin".

In the novel, Gao Yanei was entranced by the beauty of Lin Chong's wife and tried to rape her. Lin came back on time and rescued his wife from Gao Yanei. Gao Yanei, being unhappy, ganged up with his foster father and Lu Qian to frame Lin Chong. Lin was accused of attempted assassination on Gao Qiu and exiled to Cangzhou.

Gao then bribed the guards escorting Lin (who was in stocks) to Cangzhou to kill him on the way, but Lu Zhishen rescued Lin from his fate. Gao Qiu was furious with Lu and ordered the temple abbot to chase Lu out. Gao Yanei's eventual fate was to be ambushed by Lu Zhishen's followers and castrated.
