Bio
Huang Yueying was considered very gifted. To make the men admire her for her ability, not her looks, she spread the rumor that she was unattractive. The only man who courted her was Zhuge Liang. He married her before he joined Liu Bei. It is noteworthy that Zhuge Liang had no other wives or concubines in his life, though this was common practice among powerful men of his time.

Huang Yueying gave Zhuge Liang's son, Zhuge Zhan. Yueying was also the step-mother of Zhuge Qiao whom Zhuge Liang had adopted. Yueying also died after Zhuge Liang's death shortly before the battle of Wuzhang Plains.
