Wei Miao
Traditional Chinese: 魏邈
Simplified Chinese: 魏邈

Wei Miao an officer under the Kingdom of Wu during the Three Kingdoms Period of China. Through the orders of the current emperor of Wu, Sun Xiu, Wei Miao cooperated along with the long living Ding Feng in the capturing of the entire family of Sun Chen following the year of 258. This was because Sun Chen was about to rebel against Wu, which he initially did. At one time Sun Chen was asked to join in a certain banquet that was held by Sun Xiu. Sun Chen foolishly consented to this banquet even though of course it ran a grand risk. During the banquet the guards appeared at the unexpected moment and captured Sun Chen, in which he begged for his life. However, he was not spared of this and was killed along with all of his family.
