吴娃 / Wu Wa

吴娃 / Wu Wa appears in 《资治通鉴·周纪》57丨古代发毒誓还有这作用？ as the daughter of Wu Guang whom 赵武灵王 marries in 赵国. The episode says she is gentle, does not seek rewards or title, and becomes deeply favored by the ruler.

Her source role is succession foreshadowing. Wu Wa is later called Hui Hou and gives birth to 赵何, while Zhao Wuling Wang already has an elder legitimate son, 赵章, by a Han princess. The episode treats this family arrangement as the beginning of the later mistake that leaves Zhao Wuling Wang to die by starvation.
