I was very lucky to be able to visit this site in person! For those who haven’t been yet: there are two academic publications from the last few weeks on King Kaolie’s 烈王 tomb in Anhui, known as the Wuwangdun 武王墩 tomb.

To say that I’m having a wonderful time in Jingzhou is an understatement. Very grateful to Prof Zhao Xiaobin for being such an amazing host, taking me and my colleague Boqun to see sites and manuscripts. The richness of the new discoveries is simply incredible.

table comparing versions of the same narrative. Zi Gong and Yan Ping Zhong are taken as examples of good officers, who fail to understand their status. Zi Gong is too extravagant, it makes his superiors look cheap; Yan Ping Zhong is too stingy, it makes his inferiors look excessive.
