Xiahou Hui ( 220–243), courtesy name Zhiquan, was an official of the state of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period of China.

Life

Xiahou Hui was the sixth son of Xiahou Yuan, a general who served under Cao Cao, the warlord who laid the foundation for the Cao Wei state in the late Eastern Han dynasty before the Three Kingdoms period. As a youth, he was already known for being knowledgeable, well-read and talented in literary arts. He served in various positions in the Cao Wei government, including Gentleman of the Yellow Gate (黃門侍郎), Chancellor (相) of Yan State (燕國), and Administrator (太守) of Le'an Commandery (樂安郡). He also had several debates with Zhong Yu (锺毓), a son of Zhong Yao. He died at the age of 36.
