Paper Summary

The theory of "Chen" in the ancient Confucian book Zhong Yong has been interpreted differently by scholars throughout history, such as Chen Yi, Zhu Xi, and Wang Shouren. These interpreters added their own ideas about governing to the original concept, changing its meaning over time. The theory of "Chen" in Zhong Yong has evolved beyond its original form due to the influence of these different interpretations.
