Introduction
The original work "Records of the Kingdoms of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty" is a famous vernacular historical romance novel of the Ming Dynasty. It takes the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period as the main line, describing the splendid history of more than 500 years from the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty to the unification of the six kingdoms by the Qin Dynasty. The scenes are grand and the span is long.
The complexity of the event, the number of characters, and the profound description can only be matched by later history books. The stories of various countries connected in chronological order, covering everything from the methods of governing a country, strengthening the army, and enriching the people, to the strategies of being a person, doing things, and getting along, have become the standards and examples for future generations to judge the success and failure of right and wrong, and they still have far-reaching influence today.
