The paper explored the development of successive conjunctions from Archaic Chinese to Contemporary Chinese from a macroscopic perspective. Data statistics and diachronic study method were adopted in this paper, and the results indicated that a quantity of new successive conjunctions have been produced both in Archaic Chinese and Mid-ancient Chinese, and at the same time a very large proportion of the old successive conjunctions were superseded by the new. Those which appeared in very few types of corpus and have low frequency of use are more likely to be eliminated. In Contemporary Chinese, the successive conjunction system tends to be stable and concise.
