About the author

Li Xiuxing was a Chinese scholar of the Qing dynasty. Catalog and authority records identify him as a jinshi of 1715, meaning he passed the highest level of the imperial civil service examinations in that year.

Reliable biographical detail appears to be scarce in easily accessible sources. A Harvard Chinese Rare Books catalog entry lists him as a creator or contributor, and Wikidata records him as a Qing-dynasty figure associated with the 1715 imperial examination.

Because so little confirmed information is readily available, it is safest to describe him as an early eighteenth-century literatus known through bibliographic records rather than through a well-documented modern biography.
