Abstract
Translator’s summary: Duke Zhuang finally weighs in against the state of Qi, though not until the killer of his father, Duke Xiang of Qi, is himself assassinated and his state presumably in turmoil. Apparently resolved to kill Duke Xiang’s successor, Duke Huan, with his bare hands, Duke Zhuang is unexpectedly won over by him instead. Duke Huan of Qi becomes the first of the Five Hegemons, and he busies himself with alliance building for the balance of the chapter.
