　　This is the postscript of "Chu Suiliang's Copy of Orchid Pavilion Preface" collected by the Palace Museum in Beijing and written by Lu Jishan of the Yuan Dynasty (old version inscribed by Ming Dynasty and collected by Chen Jian). The verses of this postscript are similar to those contained in Mi Fu's "History of Books".
　　Regarding the facsimile of "Chu Suiliang's Preface to Lanting", Ming Wenjia, Wang Shizhen and others said that this copy was made during the Chenghua period by copying an ancient model from the collection of Chen Jian (named Jixi) and then copying it with Mi Fu's postscript. Completed, the original appearance has been basically preserved. Later generations also mistakenly determined that this version was forged by Chen Jian based on Wen Jia and Wang Shizhen's comments on Chen Jian. Later research revealed that this copy was actually made by Lu Jishan in the Yuan Dynasty. Lu Jishan once copied the "Lanting Preface" collected by his brother. There are five kinds of copies handed down from generation to generation, and this is one of them.
