An officer hugging a gong and hammer and a district commandant with a drum and drumstick called out for someone to ferry the chief across the river.64 63 Xiangcheng Jun 襄成君: this name is constructed in the same way as the names of the “four seigneurs” of the Warring States era: Mengchang Jun of Qi, Xinling Jun of Wey, Pingyuan Jun of Zhao, and Chunshen Jun of Chu (see n. 13).
In fact, “Xiangcheng Jun” appears to be an attempt to render the name “Chunshen Jun,” who was enfeoffed in the former capital of Wu, then a part of Yue, in 248.
The Chinese text says “ferry the king (wang),” but I use “chief” here because the figure referred to was only a fief holder, however kinglike his powers may have been.
