Gao Shengtai (died 1096) was the founder and the only emperor of the short-lived Dazhong Kingdom from 1094 until his death in 1096.
In 1080, Duan Lianyi, the 12th ruler of the Dali Kingdom, was overthrown and killed by Yang Yizhen, who seized the throne from him.
Before his death, he instructed his son, Gao Taiming, to return the throne to the Duan family.
In spite of this power transition, Gao Shengtai's relatives and descendants still occupied highly influential positions in the Dali Kingdom after his death.
Gao Shengtai is fictionalised as a minor character in the wuxia novel [zh] Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils by Louis Cha.
