About This Novel
Among the three brothers Chen Yaosou, Chen Yaozuo and Chen Yaozi, Chen Yaozuo ranked second. The eldest brother was Chen Yaosu and the younger brother was Chen Yaozi. The father of the three brothers is Chen Shenghua, and Chen Shenghua's great-grandfather is Chen Xiang, whose ancestral home is Inner Mongolia. Chen Xiang was originally the secretary of the Ming Dynasty in the late Tang Dynasty. He later followed Wang Jian, the founding emperor of Shu, to Sichuan and worked beside Wang Jian. In order to dissuade Wang Jian from proclaiming himself emperor, he disobeyed Wang Jian's original intention and was sent to Xinjing as the county magistrate. Xinjing County was under the jurisdiction of Langzhong County, Langzhou at that time. It was named Xinjing because of the many salt wells in its territory. Ancient Xinjing is now Xinjing Village, Daqiao Town, southern Sichuan County.
