Alas! They had been friends in youth,
But whispering tongues can poison truth;
And constancy lives in realms above;
And life is thorny; and youth is vain;
And to be wroth with one we love,
Doth work like madness in the brain …

They stood aloof, the scars remaining,


Like cliffs which had been rent asunder:
A dreary sea now flows between,
But neither heat, nor frost, nor thunder,
Shall wholly do away I ween
The marks of that which once hath been.
Cristabel: Samuel Taylor Coleridge

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

I never originally intended to produce a translation of the Yuejue shu.


However, during the course of my research on Wu and Yue culture, I
realised my progress was being hampered by not knowing enough about
the contents and history of this book. There remain many problems with
understanding this text, but it has been an immensely rewarding experi-
ence to work on this translation. This book contains revised versions of
the two chapters which I have already published as articles: Chapter Five
as “The Book of the Young Master of Accountancy: An ancient Chinese
economics text,” in the Journal of the Social and Economic History of the
Orient 50.1 (2007), pp. 19–40, and Chapter Ten as “A Virtual City: The
“Record of the Lands of Yue” and the Founding of Shaoxing,” in Oriens
Extremus 46 (2007), pp. 1–27. Part of Chapter Thirteen has also appeared
in “The Weapons of Kings: A New Perspective on Southern Sword Leg-
ends in Early China,” in the Journal of the American Oriental Society.
The early phases of research on this project were made possible by
grants from the National Central Library, Taiwan, and the Sino-British
Fellowship Trust. I would like to thank Sue Small of SOAS library, and
the staff of Cambridge University Library, the National Central Library,
Taiwan, the National Palace Museum Library, Taiwan, Shanghai Library,
Suzhou Library, and Seoul National University Library for their assis-
tance. Among my former colleagues at SOAS, I would also like to thank
Andrew Lo, Tan Tian Yuan, Antonello Palumbo, Craig Clunas, and Wang
Tao. Special thanks also go to my former supervisor, Bernhard Fuehrer,
particularly for the suggestion that all research should be tailored towards
places that would be fun to visit. Two MA students have produced dis-
sertations on the Yuejue shu under my supervision, Chloe Matthews and
Somui Cheung, and my discussions with them have served to clarify
many issues with this problematic text.
Many friends have provided encouragement along the way, even going
so far as to suggest that they will buy this book. They include Chan Hon-
man, Desmond Cheung, Stéphane Corcuff, Jeevan Deol, Kaspars Eima-
nis, Luke Hambleton, Huang Lan-yin, Jungeun Jo, Iacob Koch-Weser,
Mizio Matteucci, Alex Pevsner, Shih Ching-fei, Firmian von Peez, and

Yan Zinan. Two who have probably suffered more than most from hav-
ing to listen to discussions of textual problems in the Yuejue shu are Mar-
cus White and Marc Howe. However, to avoid invidious comparisons I
dedicate this book to Ahn Chil-hyun, whose music kept me company as
I wrote.
THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

Introduction

At Jiaxing , on what is now the border between Jiangsu province and


Zhejiang province, and which was once the border between the kingdom
of Wu and the kingdom of Yue, a bridge was built during the North-
ern Song dynasty to span the river. On the northern side of this bridge,
there is a carved stone sculpture of King Fuchai of Wu (r. 495–
473bce), and facing him, on the southern side, there is a sculpture of
King Goujian of Yue (r. 496–465bce).1 The origins of the con-
flict between Wu and Yue are lost in the mists of time, but even so, when
this bridge was built some one thousand five hundred years after the
event, the war between these two kingdoms was still so famous that it
could simply be represented by the figures of the two contending monar-
chs. And yet this Song dynasty bridge also expresses an important truth:
intractable and bitter as the fight between these two kingdoms was, they
are forever linked. Modern archaeology has served to confirm that the
culture of these two kingdoms was much the same, and indeed, in prehis-
toric times, identical.2 No doubt to the inhabitants of the Central States,
whose records provide much of what is known about Wu and Yue, they
remained indistinguishable, since they were visually linked by their cus-
toms of tattooing, cutting their hair, and chiselling or blackening their

1 The bridge is known as the Guojie qiao (Border Bridge); see Zhu Huiyong
, Zhongguo guchuan yu Wu Yue guqiao (Hangzhou: Zhejiang
daxue chubanshe, 2000), 287. In ancient historical texts Jiaxing is much better known
as Zuili or Jiuli , the site of the battle where in 496bce, King Goujian of Yue
defeated the forces of King Helü of Wu, though this was in fact just the most famous of
the many battles fought in and around this region; see Chen Guocan , Xi Jianhua
, Zhejiang gudai chengzhen shi (Hefei: Anhui daxue chubanshe,
2003), 36.
