Lord Xinling, the Four Princes of the Warring States Period

At the end of the Warring States Period, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was completely plunged into a period of competition among nations. For their own purposes, each vassal state began to recruit talents from all over the world. The big countries hoped that wise men would join and bring about the hegemony of the country and finally achieve unification. The small countries hoped to attract talents to survive and not be annexed by the big countries. For a time, Mengchang Lord, Pingyuan Lord, Chunshen Lord, and Xinling Lord emerged, known as the Four Young Masters of the Warring States Period. The author hopes to reproduce that period of a hundred schools of thought contending in the form of a novel. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious. Any similarity is purely coincidental and should not be imitated.
