At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, the area we now know as China had fallen into
a state of fragmentation and conflict. While the Zhou dynasty had ruled for several
centuries, several other states, originally feudal domains, tried to carve out their own
kingdoms. The state of Qin would eventually emerge the victor and unify all of China
under one rule for the first time in history.
Qu Yuan served as minister to the Zhou Emperor. A wise and articulate man, he
was loved by the common people. He did much to fight against the rampant
corruption that plagued the court-- thereby earning the envy and fear of other officials.
Therefore, when he urged the emperor to avoid conflict with the Qin Kingdom, the
officials pressured the Emperor to have him removed from service. In exile, he
traveled, taught and wrote for several years. Hearing that the Zhou had been defeated
by the Qin, he fell into despair and threw himself into the Milou River. His last poem
reads:
Many a heavy sigh I have in my despair,Grieving that I was born in such an
unlucky time.I yoked a team of jade dragons to a phoenix chariot,And waited for the
wind to come,to sour up on my journey
As he was so loved by the people, fishermen rushed out in long boats, beating
drums to scare the fish away, and throwing zong zi into the water to feed braver fish
so that they would not eat Qu Yuan's body.
