132 21 1 The Unconventionality of Sun Quan and His Sons: An Indirect Analysis of the Character of the Wu Regime Yongping Wang Abstract According to historical records, the ancestors of Sun Quan had been officials in the Wu region for generations. Based on that, Chen Yinque argued that the kingdom of Wu was established by the inferior aristocratic Sun family with the support of major families in the southern lower reaches of the Yangzi River, a view that has had wide influence in academic circles. However, a close examination of the material shows that the Sun family had humble origins and thus should be seen as belonging to the poor landowning class. The Sun family expressed the unconventionality of that class in their attitudes towards culture and customs: they belittled Confucian learning and rites in favor of superstition, choose spouses out of love and disregarded the wife s traditional position in the family hierarchy, and with their love for hunting, displays of humor, and predilection for drinking were closer to Cao Cao and his offspring than Confucian literati and officials. Politically speaking, the Sun family also favored Cao Cao s methods of ruling and worked towards centralizing power, a move that caused rifts and strife with the large Confucian families that originally supported them. Keywords: Three Kingdoms, Kingdom of Wu, Sun Quan, poor landowners, Confucian aristocratic families * Yongping Wang is a professor in the History Department at Yang Zhou University.
