Zuo's Biography in the Spring and Autumn Period is based on the Spring and Autumn Period, and uses other countries' materials such as Zhou Zhi, Jincheng, Zheng Shu and Chu Bian to illustrate the outline of the Spring and Autumn Period by describing specific historical facts.
Zuo Zhuan's classics are 13 years longer than Chunqiu's, and the actual chronicle is 26 years longer (the last thing is to make three corrections to eliminate Jin). Taking the annotation of Chunqiu as the key link, some explain the calligraphy of Chunqiu, some supplement the classics of Chunqiu, and some revise the annotation of Chunqiu incorrectly.
Most of the books belong to the events in the Spring and Autumn Period, but the completion of the book entered the Warring States Period. All these show the close relationship between Zuo Zhuan and Chunqiu.
