Sima Qian《Redords of the Grand History of China》: "Guan Cai caused chaos, but there was not enough room for him. However, King Wu of Zhou collapsed, and there were few successful kings. The world was suspicious. The ten people who belonged to Cheng Shu and Yaji, the younger brothers of the same mother, served as the assistant. It was the feudal lords who died in the Zhou Dynasty, so it was attached to the family statement."[18]
Sima Zhen《Soyin in Historical Records》"The younger brother of King Wu, Guan, Cai, and Huo. The public residence of Zhou Dynasty was rumored to be a work of making. The wolf and the owl fought against evil."[18]
