Zhao Wu

Zhao Wu (, 598–541 BC), also known by his posthumous name as the Viscount Wen of Zhao (), was a leader of the Zhao clan in the Jin state. He was the only son of Zhao Shuo (Viscount Zhuang), whom he succeeded as clan leader. The Chinese folktale ''The Orphan of Zhao'' was based on the story of Zhao Wu, which was adapted into the 18th century French play ''L'Orphelin de la Chine''. Provided by Wikipedia
