◎Imperial Visits Table. On the northern steppe, herding and hunting were the foundation of livelihood, much as encouragement of farming was for the Han; the very means of sustaining life arose from this. After Liao founded its state, built the Five Capitals, and established the Southern and Northern Administrations to govern the Chinese regions, the custom of imperial field tours nevertheless persisted unchanged. Taizu, busy securing the realm on every side, had little time for such pursuits; under Muzong and Tianzuo, the annals could scarcely keep count. Here, following Sima Qian's example of treating the Feng and Shan sacrifices in a separate fascicle, these events are set forth in tabular form, giving readers matter enough for reflection. The "Imperial Visits Table" was compiled. Imperial Visits Table
