1, Qu Yuan

Qu Yuan is a poet, and only from him did China have a writer famous for his literature. He founded the style of "Chu Ci" (also known as "Sao Style"), and was praised as "a poet in clothes, not a generation".

The appearance of Qu Yuan's works indicates that China's poetry has entered a new era from collective singing to individual originality. His main works are Li Sao, Nine Songs, Nine Chapters and Tian Wen.

Chu Ci, with Qu Yuan's works as the main body, is one of the sources of China's romantic literature, and it is also called "coquettish" with the Book of Songs, which has a far-reaching influence on later poetry.

2. Wang Zhaojun

In the decades since Zhaojun left the fortress, the two families of Han and Hungary have maintained friendly and harmonious relations. Uhaanyehe's attachment to the Han Dynasty and showing his majesty to the fortress not only ended the division and war of the Huns for many years, but also laid the foundation for the unification of the Central Plains dynasty.

Coupled with the strengthening of exchanges between the two sides, the relatively backward ethnic minorities at that time inevitably yearned for the advanced system of the Central Plains, prompting some ethnic minorities to imitate the system of the Central Plains.
