Zuo Zhuan is the most complete and reliable classical literature preserved in the pre-Qin classics and books of our country.Its narrative is detailed,and it truly reflects the historical appearance of the Spring and Autumn Period.The Spring and Autumn Period is an era of great turbulence and great changes in Chinese history.During this period,great changes have taken place in politics,economy,and ideology and culture.This change has also prompted frequent occurrences of the usurpation of the monarchy during the Spring and Autumn Period.According to statistics,there are 55 events in the Zuo Zhuan to usurp the monarchy.These phenomena generally cover all countries in the Spring and Autumn Period.An in-depth study of these phenomena can help us to better understand the Spring and Autumn society.The changes in the old patriarchal system and the ritual system are the main backgrounds for the usurpation of the monarchy,but there are also direct causes for the usurpation of the monarchy.They are self-reliance on the monarchs,rely on the powers of the monarchs,launch large-scale rebellions,and use the power of the Chinese people to help them.When the five forces that used the country's forces to seize the monarchy were analyzed,they explored the causes of these five methods,mainly because of the various contradictions caused by the struggle for power and profit within the aristocracy as the power moved down.Among them,the popular will,the influence of the Chinese people,and the interference of other vassal states are important reasons why the usurpation of the monarchy can not be ignored.Judging from the outcome and influence of the abdication of the monarchy,due to the difference in the strength of usurping the monarchy,the outcome is not all the same.Some have succeeded in usurping and some have succeeded in usurpation.Those who usurped the monarchy took advantage of the risk,but once successful,they became powerful In the grip,it has further contributed to the phenomenon of usurping the monarchy.The looting of the monarchy has caused serious damage to the old patriarchal system and ceremonial production.The original clan rule has been difficult to maintain,thereby promoting the establishment of a new type of bureaucratic system and prompting the rulers to recognize the importance of the people.In the face of so many historical facts concerning usurping the monarchy,the monarchs in the spring and autumn have to take measures to strengthen the monarchy,which objectively promoted the emergence of the county system in the Spring and Autumn Period.This has enormous impact on the development process in the Spring and Autumn Period and even in ancient China as a whole.influences.
