Mao Dinggong has 32 lines and 500 words engraved on its abdomen, which is a complete life script in the late Western Zhou Dynasty. It is mentioned in the article that in the early days of his reign, he wanted to revitalize state affairs, so he ordered his uncle Mao to handle state affairs, and Mao was appointed as a bodyguard to defend the royal family and gave him food, wine, clothes and weapons. Mao Gong felt sorry for Zhou Wang, so he cast a Ding Ji year, which will be preserved forever by later generations.
