King Goujian of Yue, Avenger
Manage episode 382865388 series 3403039
Even as I want to finish telling you the story of Wu Zixu, the fact is that his life so intersected with the lives and careers of other major figures that in this second part of his story I must shift the spotlight onto someone else. King Goujian of Yue, initially defeated and kept by his enemy as a hostage, would rise to the status of a hegemon of the Spring and Autumn period. During his career he would duel against his nemesis, King Fuchai of Wu. And his triumph would also be the time for Wu Zixu's downfall. Other major figures like Xishi the beauty and none other than Confucius himself would also play their respective roles.
