杜夫人 / Lady Du (Cao Cao)
杜夫人 / Lady Du enters the wiki through Hanji 1013 as 秦宜禄’s wife and 秦朗’s mother. The source places her in 下邳 while Qin Yilu is held by 袁术 and given another marriage connection there.
Her role is to open the episode’s pattern of Cao Cao noticing and taking women in a military-political setting. 关羽 repeatedly asks 曹操 to award Lady Du to him after Xiapi is captured, but Cao Cao’s curiosity leads him to see her himself and bring her into his own household.
This page is source-scoped. It does not build a full biography for Lady Du; it records the episode’s use of her as the first case that prepares the later Wancheng branch around 邹氏.
