During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Zhang of Han Dynasty wanted to order doctor Cao Bao to be responsible for the revision of rites and music, while Ban Gu advocated that all Confucian scholars in the capital should be called together to study and formulate rites and music. Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty thought that letting the Confucian scholars do it was equivalent to "giving up the way, but not in three years", so he insisted that Cao Bao complete it. After review, 150 articles were adopted.
