Features: The years have flown by, and the hair has turned white. Looking back on the past, I can't help but feel a mix of sorrow and joy. Examining the treasured letters, many authors have passed away one after another, riding off to the west, leaving their voices and smiles behind in this world. Gazing out the window, the past events are vividly recalled; touching and caressing the pages, I seem to see the demeanor of the old friends. To feel the examples of the predecessors, one can delight in mind and improve wisdom; browsing through the calligraphy and ink traces of the book lovers, it is also enough to please the eyes and broaden the mind. Not daring to be presumptuous, I have selected over seventy letters and compiled them into a book for fellow enthusiasts. The brief introduction is just to provide a simple explanation of the letters and express my sincere remembrance. I wonder if it will interest the readers.
