Zheng was a weapon in the Warring States period, which was used to swing vertically and attack the enemy. There is also an old saying that "Zheng Heng is happy, and Li Cheng is a soldier". Later, a string was added, and it was found to be nice, so it developed into a musical instrument. As time went on, the weapon became lighter and lighter, and Zheng, a huge and lightweight weapon, was abandoned. Therefore, at present, people see the Zheng in the form of musical instruments, with beautiful modeling and decoration.
