U+5AEA "嫪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+5AEA "嫪" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically refers to a personal name, most famously associated with Lao Ai, a eunuch (or reportedly a male concubine) in the court of Qin Shi Huang's mother, Queen Dowager Zhao, during the Warring States period. In modern usage, the character is extremely rare and is primarily encountered in historical texts, as its pronunciation (lào in Mandarin) and its meaning, which can relate to amorous or illicit relations, have rendered it largely obsolete outside of scholarly or literary contexts.
