To the Chinese of the time, kings were considered the Sons of Heaven. If a leader was moral, the heavens would make their kingdom flourish, bringing wealth and success. If not, heaven would send disaster to remove him from office. Under Zhou rule, the kingdom expanded into the Huang He plain and part of the Yangtze River Valley because the leader was moral. Since the leader had been virtuous to his kingdom, heaven allowed his kingdom to prosper.
