    Default Hong Yu and Beauty Fists

    From DOMD chapter 2:
    Madame Ying Lie Temple was dedicated to Madame Han Shizhong, Liang Hongyu. Yangzhou residents called it 'Distinguished Prostitute Temple'. When she was young, Liang Hongyu was a courtesan, and that was how she met Han Shizhong. Every year the courtesans of Yangzhou would visit the Madame Ying Lie Temple to burn incense and pray, asking the spirit of this mistress from Anguo, Hebei province, of the Song Dynasty, to look after the latter generation sisters of the same trade.

    From ROCH chapter 13:
    A woman’s state of mind goes through many things, many changes. Along
    with the different extraordinary characters of each of the famous
    historic woman, came laughter, as brows were knitted, joy with worry; it
    was even more difficult to understand and surmise. Incorporating the
    hundreds and thousand year old feelings of these beautiful woman into
    martial arts, and then adding stances that reflect the beauty of
    goddesses, the mystery surrounding angels; how could ordinary people
    understand it?

    Yang Guo used a stance of “Hong Yu Beats the Drum” his two arms
    attacking one after the other; Da’erba raised his rod and attacked. Yang
    Guo changed into “Hong Fu Hurries in the Night”, unexpectedly he charged
    forward. Da’erba pushed his rod down vertically to block it. Yang Guo
    suddenly used “Luu Zhu’s Falling Building”; he threw himself onto the
    ground and attacked his lower body.

    Are they the same person? Who are the other characters referenced in the Beauty Fists?

    Similar person.

    Liang Hongyu's story includes her beating the drum.
