Book of Southern Qi", a chronicle of the history of the Xiao Qi generation of the Southern Dynasty. Written by Liang Xiaozi. There are 60 volumes of the book, of which 59 are extant, including 8 volumes of the Honji, 11 volumes of the Chronicles, and 40 volumes of the Biography. There are also missing texts in some of the biography.

Xiao Zixian (487-537), whose name is Jingyang, was a native of Lanling in the Southern Liang Dynasty (now northwest of Wujin, Jiangsu), a historian and writer of the Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty. When he was thirteen years old, the Xiao Qi Dynasty was overthrown by Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Shunzhi, is the younger brother of Emperor Xiao Daocheng of Qi, they are all surnamed Xiao, and they are of the same clan, but after all, they have branched since their great-grandfather time.

Xiao Yan established the Liang Dynasty, and he was the famous Emperor Wu of Liang in history. In the Liang Dynasty, Xiao Zixian was courteous and trusted by Emperor Wu of Liang with his talent, demeanor, and outstanding conversation.

Xiao Zixian is a person who is "sprinkled with wind gods, graceful and elegant, simple and elegant, simple and simple, and not afraid of ghosts and gods", and is also a "quite talented" person. But Emperor Wu of Liang regarded him as a "genius" from beginning to end. In fact, his literary talent does have a social impact.

Xiao Zixian's contemporary, Shen Yue, the author of the Book of Song, even praised his articles as first-class products belonging to the famous Ban Gu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Of course, this evaluation is too high, but it can also be seen that Shen Yue appreciates his literary talent. Historiography is Xiao Zixian's favorite career, and in his forty-nine years of life, he has written five historical works:

One hundred volumes of the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, thirty volumes of the History of the Jin Dynasty, sixty volumes of the Book of Qi, five volumes of the Ordinary Northern Expedition, and thirty volumes of the Biography of Guijian. He wrote the Book of Qi to ask Emperor Wu of Liang for instructions and was approved by Emperor Wu of Liang. According to the Tang Dynasty historian Liu Zhiji, Xiao Zixian wrote and completed the Book of Qi during the reign of Emperor Wu of Liang (502-519).

If Liu Zhiji's statement is true, then the Book of Qi was written during the eighth year (509) to the eighteenth year (519) of the Heavenly Prison, that is, the decade between the twenty and thirty years of Xiao Zixian. Sure enough, that's a young historian. In addition to the Book of Qi, Xiao Zixian's other works, including the 20 volumes of the anthology, no longer exist.

In order to distinguish Xiao Zixian's "Book of Qi" and the "Book of Qi" written by Li Baiyao in the early Tang Dynasty, later generations called the former "Book of Southern Qi" and the latter "Book of Northern Qi". In the process of writing the "Book of Southern Qi", Xiao Zixian still has a lot of literature and ideas that can be referenced. As early as the time of Emperor Qi Ming, the historians Tan Chao and Jiang Yan Feng Zhao revised the history of the dynasty, and they formulated the style of the history of Qi, but did not finally complete the revision work.

In addition, there are "Qi Dian" written by Xiong Xiang, "Qi Ji" written by Shen Yue, "Qi Chunqiu" written by Wu Jun, and "History of Qi" by Jiang Yan. Xiao Zixian's writing work, in the style of historical books, "the (purlin) super, (river) flooded old and small changes"; Drawing on the achievements of various families in historical materials, he finally wrote the 60 volumes of the Book of Nanqi.

The Book of Southern Qi is a chronicle of the history of the Southern Qi Dynasty written by Xiao Zixian of the Liang State of the Southern Dynasty.

It was compiled by Xiao Zixian based on the national history of Tan Chao, Jiang Yan and others.

There are 60 volumes in total, of which 1 volume of the preface has been lost, and only 59 volumes have survived. These include 8 volumes of the Chronicle, 11 volumes of the Chronicles, and 40 volumes of the Chronicles.

The book records the historical facts of a total of 23 years from Emperor Xiao Daocheng of Qi to Song Jianqi to the fall of Southern Qi.

Because Xiao Zixian was born in the royal family, grew up in the palace, and heard and witnessed historical facts, a large amount of original information is preserved in the book, but whitewashing is inevitable.

This history book is elegantly written and written smoothly. It is an important historical material for the study of the history of the Southern Qi Dynasty.

The Book of Northern Qi is a historical literary work, one of the 24 histories, and a chronicle of the Tang Dynasty historian Li Baiyao. The following is a brief introduction to the Book of Northern Qi that I bring to you, I hope it can help you!

Northern Qi Book", 50 volumes, including 8 volumes of the Benji and 42 volumes of biography, written by Tang Li Baiyao.

In the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, there was a huge wave of rebellion in the six towns in the north, and Gao Huan, who was born in the low-level military attache of Huaishuo Town, won the leadership of more than 200,000 Xianbei people and controlled the government of the Northern Wei Dynasty. In 534 A.D., Gao Huan's Xiaowu Emperor Yuan Xiu was forced to go west to Chang'an, Gao Huan then set up another Xiaojing Emperor Yuan Shanjian, moved the capital to Yecheng, known as the Eastern Wei Dynasty. In 550 AD, Gao Huan's son, Gao Yang, abolished Emperor Xiaojing and established the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The Eastern Wei and Northern Qi ruled as far south as the Yangtze River, confronted the Liang and Chen dynasties successively, and the west was in present-day Shanxi, Henan, and Hubei, and was separated from the Western Wei and Northern Zhou. In 577 AD, Northern Qi was annexed by the Northern Zhou.

The original name of the Book of Northern Qi was "Book of Qi", and the word "North" was added in the Song Dynasty to become its current name. Although it mainly records the history of the Northern Qi Dynasty, it actually records the history of about 80 years from Gao Huan's army to the fall of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and reflects the rise and fall of the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Li Baiyao (565-648 A.D.), a native of Anping, Dingzhou (now Anping, Hebei), was born in the family of Shi Eun. Li Baiyao was studious since he was a child, read books of scripture and history, and served as the prince in the early Sui Dynasty, and succeeded his father as the Duke of Anping. Zhenguan died in the twenty-second year at the age of eighty-four.

In the Northern Qi regime, uncles, nephews, and brothers within the imperial family killed each other, so that this short-lived dynasty of twenty years was replaced by six emperors. The Book of Northern Qi has a lot of descriptions of the power struggles between feudal rulers.

The Book of Northern Qi was badly damaged in the process of circulation, and now only seventeen volumes remain in their original appearance, and the others are used by later generations. The "History of the Northern Qi" and other works were supplemented, which greatly reduced the value of the "Book of Northern Qi". But even so, it still provides us with a work on dynastic history for us to understand the history of the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.

It's a book. Book of Northern Qi
