Origin Story
话说古代福禄县有个赵员外，为人正直，深受百姓爱戴。然而，他却不幸遭遇横祸，被恶霸李寿杀害，三个儿子也因瘟疫相继离世，只留下一个女儿赵娥。赵娥痛失亲人，悲痛欲绝，但她并没有被仇恨击垮，反而更加坚强勇敢。她暗自发誓，一定要为父兄报仇雪恨，绝不假手于人。赵娥深知李寿势力强大，若贸然行动，恐难以成功。于是，她隐忍不发，暗中观察李寿的动向，收集证据，寻找时机。她平时装作柔弱无助的样子，迷惑李寿，让李寿放松警惕。 经过几年的精心策划，赵娥终于找到了一个绝佳的时机。她利用李寿的贪婪心理，设下了一个圈套。她假意求李寿帮忙，将一批贵重货物运往外地。李寿欣然同意，并派人押运货物。赵娥暗中跟踪押运人员，在途中设下埋伏，将他们一网打尽。李寿失去了重要的货物和人员，损失惨重，也因此受到了官府的严惩。赵娥乘胜追击，将李寿绳之以法，为父兄报了仇。 赵娥的故事流传至今，成为一段佳话。她凭借自己的勇气和智慧，为父兄报仇雪恨，也成为了古代女性的杰出代表。她用行动证明了，正义终将战胜邪恶，即使面对强大的敌人，只要有决心和毅力，就能最终取得胜利。她的事迹也警示着后人，面对困难和挑战，不能轻易放弃，更不能假手于人，而要依靠自身的努力去克服困难，去实现自己的目标。
It is said that in ancient Fulu County there was a wealthy official named Zhao, known for his integrity and compassion. However, he was tragically killed by the bully Li Shou. His three sons also died one after another from disease, leaving only his daughter, Zhao E. Overwhelmed with grief, Zhao E vowed to avenge her father and brothers. She refused to rely on others, determined to take matters into her own hands. Knowing Li Shou was powerful and a direct attack would likely fail, she patiently waited, secretly observing Li Shou's movements and gathering information until the perfect moment arrived.
