Summary "吳越春秋" by active 40 Ye Zhao is a historical account written in the ancient period of Chinese literature. The work focuses on the history of the Wu and Yue states during the early periods of Chinese history, exploring themes of politics, power struggles, and the noble lineage of the characters involved in these dynastic shifts, particularly emphasizing significant figures like King Taibo of Wu and Wu Zixu. The opening establishes a historical context, introducing the lineage of Wu Taibo, a descendant of Emperor Hou Ji, and traces the early developments that led to the establishment of the Wu state. It delves into the mythological elements surrounding Taibo's birth and early life, as well as the initial circumstances leading to the foundation of the Wu kingdom. The narrative begins to paint a picture of the socio-political environment of the time and sets the stage for the complex relationships and rivalries that will emerge as the story unfolds.
