In the Xia Dynasty, Taikang lost the country, Hanzhuo usurped power and disrupted the government. Shaokang, a descendant of the Xia royal family, went into exile and hunkered down, determined to restore the country. The official history "Zuo Zhuan" records the legend of China's first female spy with only five words: "The Handmaid Ai Spies". This work clears away the fog of thousands of years of historical data and restores the ups and downs of Nv Ai's life.
Ai, a commoner from Tianshui, has extraordinary courage and thoughtfulness, and is ordered to lurk in the enemy camp when faced with danger. Disguising herself as a sewing maid, she went deep into the fiefdom of Han Chun, the son of Han Zhuo, hiding herself in the shadow of the ring and sword, secretly investigating the city's defenses, the supply of food and grass, and the strength of the enemy's troops. She was in danger several times, and resolved the crisis with her calmness and dexterity, and continuously passed on core intelligence to Shaokang.
In the chaotic ancient times when power was strife, she lost her feminine tenderness and turned into a sharp blade in the dark night, wandering between ourselves and the enemy, witnessing the bloody storm of dynasty change. The work not only depicts the thrilling game of spy war, but also portrays her choice between the justice of the country and her personal destiny, restoring the character of this strange woman who has been forgotten by official history.
Nu Ai single-handedly laid a key foundation for Shao's restoration of the country and the start of Shaokang's resurgence. She was the ancestor of the Ai surname and the founder of the Chinese spy war. The story is based on ancient history, combines power strategy and female growth, fills in the gaps in the history books, and tells the story of an unknown woman who reversed the fate of a dynasty and the country with her wisdom and courage.
Purpose: to use the legendary story of Nv Ai to convey the character of forbearance, perseverance, and caring for the common people, echoing the spiritual core of independence, self-reliance, responsibility and dedication of contemporary women, so that the wisdom and character of women in thousands of years of history can win the empathy and resonance of contemporary readers.
