Chu Zhuangwang didn't answer his question directly, but he said happily that Jiuding has been handed down for three generations. He just wanted to see the size and weight of the tripod this time. The king told him that since Dayu cast the tripod, it has been handed down for three generations, and these three generations all ruled the country by virtue, not just by these tripod. Hearing this, Wang felt ashamed and retired with Chu Bing.
