The etiquette system, which was formed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, first adopted the way of standardizing people's daily code of conduct and carried out this tradition to the upper society and household life. Although the etiquette was not inferior to the common people in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the original purpose of establishing the etiquette system was to safeguard the interests of the slave owners and aristocrats and strengthen the hierarchical system of the slave society so as to coordinate the internal relations among the slave owners. However, after entering the Spring and Autumn period, with the emergence of slavery, such as the collapse of etiquette and music, the downward movement of knowledge, and the lack of distinction between people, this tradition and etiquette system has thus penetrated into a wider range of social life, which has become a code of conduct and norms widely observed by the society.
