Wu Ti's active policy had not been directed only against the Hsiung-nu. After heavy fighting he brought southern China, with the region round Canton, and the south-eastern coast, firmly under Chinese dominion in this case again on account of trade interests.
The composition of this and the other pieces of this decade is attributed to the duke of Kau, king Wan's son, and was intended by him for the benefit of his nephew, the young king Khang. Wan, it must be borne in mind, was never actually king of China. He laid the foundations of the kingly power, which was established by his son king Wu, and consolidated by the duke of Kau.
Or does my lord sleep, or has he fallen blind upon the side by which Weng approaches?" "His heart is bad and his instincts perverted," replied Wu Chi dully. "He ignores the rites, custom, and the Emperor's example, and sets at defiance all the principles of domestic government.

The Lord of the Heavens was agreeable, had the order issued, and told the Evening Star to take it to Sun Wu Kung.
The writer has passed on to Wu, who did actually become king. See on the third of the Praise Odes of Lu in Part IV. By the Fang-water grows the white millet ; Did not king Wu show wisdom in his employment of officers? He would leave his plans to his descendants, And secure comfort and support to his son.
