Dongzi (English Version)

Introduction

1060 BC:

Wang Wu(Wu Wang), king of western Zhou, casts doubt on the ancient Shang dynasty by declaring Xi'an as the capital of his newly established kingdom.

The omen bones of the Qishan in Shang announce the emergence of a new kingdom under the leadership of the Wang Wu dynasty.

The black-clad riders, whose only wild eyes can be seen from behind their masks, are anonymous and sacrificed on the way to the Shang Dynasty, known as the Men in the Shadows, to deliver a message to the Kingdom of West Zhou.

The main streets of the city shake under the feet of their horses and disappear in the dust around the horses through the western gates of Yin, the capital of Shang.

The story is based on a semi-historical narrative - a myth of love, war, affection, honor , and betrayal in the eleventh and tenth centuries BC in the land of ancient China. Characters who lived like us and were forgotten in a layer of the dust of history in silence.

This story narrates the confrontation of Wuxian, a man in the shadows and one of the royal bodyguards of the Shang dynasty, with Prince Wang Zhou. A meeting that initiates dramatic changes and events in the history of ancient China the Zhou Dynasty.

The English language is not my native language. I apologize if I have mistakes in writing and translation.

The Dongzi is my fanfiction/novel in two Seasons in the Persian language. I want to share it with my other friends in The World.

I hope that enjoy it.
