唐衡 / Tang Heng (late Han)

唐衡 / Tang Heng enters the wiki through Hanji 904 as a eunuch whose family network helps explain 唐珍’s appointment as sikong in 173 CE. The episode says Tang Heng was one of the eunuch figures rewarded after the Liang Ji crisis, then uses his relationship to Tang Zhen to show how palace-connected kinship could shape high office.

The source also notes that Tang Heng’s daughter married 荀彧, so the page keeps him as a late-Han network node rather than only an isolated eunuch name. Its core value is institutional: Tang Heng helps connect eunuch proximity, family linkage, marriage ties, and office access.
