"Taishi Gongbi" is Sima Qian's way of telling historical classics and evaluating historical figures. They all follow the writing principles of "speaking in sequence" and "having substance in words" to varying degrees.

The core content of Taishigong's brushwork is Sima Qian's record spirit as a historian. The real record mainly starts from the universality of human nature, puts itself in the position of writing the inevitable reaction of specific characters in a specific context, and tries its best to restore the inherent face of history.
