The four famous prefaces in ancient times were Preface to Wang Tengting, Preface to Lanting Collection, Preface to Lingguan Biography and Preface to Jinshi Record.

Preface to Wang Tengting is the full name of Preface to Wang Tengqiu Pavilion, also known as Preface to Wang Tengting's Poems. Wang Teng Pavilion is located on the banks of Ganjiang River in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. Li Yuanying, the son of Tang Gaozu, was founded as the prefect of Hongzhou (AD 653). Hou Yan is a herdsman in Hongzhou, and the banquet group is in the pavilion. Wang Bo's father passed this and improvised. Through the description of the situation, scenery and banquets in Tengwangge area, this paper expresses the author's feeling that there is no way to volunteer.

Preface to Lanting Collection is also called Preface to Lanting Collection, Preface to Lanting, Preface to He Lin, Preface to Zan and Zan Tie. On March 3rd, the 9th year of Yonghe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 353), 4/kloc-0 military and political dignitaries such as Wang Xizhi, Xie An and Sun Chuo "wrote poems" in Yinshan Lanting (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang). At the meeting, Wang Xizhi wrote a preface for their poems. The Preface to the Orchid Pavilion narrates the beauty of the landscape around the Orchid Pavilion and the joy of the party, and expresses the author's feelings about the impermanence of life and death.

The History of the Five Dynasties and Biography of Lingguan is selected from Ouyang Xiu's Biography of Lingguan in the New History of the Five Dynasties, which is a historical theory. Based on the concrete analysis of the rise and fall of the Five Dynasties and the late Tang Dynasty, this paper draws the conclusions that "worry and fatigue can rejuvenate the country, leisure will lead to death" and "disasters often accumulate little, wisdom and courage are trapped and drowned", which shows that the rise and fall of the country is not determined by fate, but by "personnel", in order to warn the rulers of the Northern Song Dynasty at that time to learn from historical lessons, be prepared for danger in times of peace, be cautious of haste and forbearance, and guard against arrogance and extravagance. The article comes straight to the point and puts forward the main idea of the full text: the reason for the ups and downs lies in personnel. Then, from the perspective of "personnel", it describes the process from prosperity to decline, and then to wealth and sudden death, and demonstrates the main idea with historical facts. In specific writing, the methods of restraining first and then promoting, and comparative argumentation are adopted. First, when Zhuang Zong succeeded, his high spirits were highly praised. Then, when he failed, he lamented the decline of the situation. The contrast between life and death, glory and decline is strong and touching. Finally, supplemented by the ancient adage of Shangshu, the article is more convincing. The full text closely follows the word "ups and downs", combines narration with exposition, history with theory, uses a pen to bring emotion, ups and downs, changes a lot, has a strong appeal, and has become a masterpiece that has always been told.
