Sima Qian (145 B.C. ~ 86 B.C.) has a long character and is a native of the Western Han Dynasty. Born in Longmen, he traveled to the United States when he was young, and later inherited his father Sima Tan as the Taishi Ling at the age of forty-two, and inherited the posthumous writings. Later, because of Li Ling's surrender to the Huns, he moved to defend it, angering Emperor Wu and going to prison and being corrupted. Later, it was the order of the Chinese book, and the rest of his life after the sentence was completed Taishi Gongshu (later known as the Historical Records), starting from the Yellow Emperor and ending in the early years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a total of 130 articles, more than 520,000 words, the ancestor of the Ji Biography, and the ancestor of the general history. Because of the talent of good history, the historical records made are the sect of the official history, so later generations called Sima Qian the history of Qian. In addition, the "Han Shuyi Literary Chronicle" contains eight articles of the book, and now only the sad man is not encountered.
