Han Yi's "To the Remaining Situ Shizhong" on ruler tablets, running script. Paper, 30.2x50.8cm, collected by the National Palace Museum, Taipei

Interpretation: I paid my respects to the left-behind Situ Shizhong again. I looked down at the pavilion and enjoyed my love at night. Yesterday, I was tired of bearing the long and distant questions. It was late in winter and the severe cold was coming. I waited for the move and stopped in Wanfu District. I went to the countryside without saying a word. The waiter looks up to Bao Tiao, the taste of sleeping, and the sentimental hope. I sincerely offer it to you. I do not declare it. I am afraid to leave it. Situ Shi, who is left behind, is sitting on the middle stage. On November 1st, it is empty.
