No idea. While I went through a bit of a weeaboo phase in my younger years, I mostly focused on Japan more than anything - I've never been all that overly interested in China (and most other Asian nations even less).

All I could recommend to you would be the obvious "classics" - Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin/Suikoden, and Journey to the West. Those are pretty much the only Sino-centric books I've read (apart from a semi-related biography of Genghis Khan). Well, no, there were also a couple books on philosophy and mythology from a class I took in college, but none of that really addresses what you seem to be looking for, though.

There's also always stuff like GURPS China, but that's basic in the extreme, and probably wouldn't help you much.

All I can really do is recommend you go look at Wikipedia articles about Shang/Zhou/Chin era China and see if any of them touch on what you're looking for, then see if they offer any references or external links to the subject. That's probably the time period you're looking for (unless you're more interested in the "barbarians" on the fringes of Han, some of whom show up in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which happens later).
