Abstract: Dizigui (rules for students) is a great illuminative book revised by Jia Cunren according to Xunmengwen (teaching and enlightening), which was written by Li Yuxiu during the reign of Qianlong, Qing Dynasty. It’s very clear that from its preface and postscript we’ve found today, this book was mostly used for both private and public schools. This book became very popular gradually from the middle and later Qing Dynasty. It began to spread in the reign of Daoguang. In the Republic of China, it was prevalent almost all over China. The collection for series was the most primary way for its circulation. Dizigui revised by Jia had three different editions, which are not found today. Among these three editions, the one recollected in Xijingqinglu is the closest to Xunmengwen, written by Li Yuxiu. Another one recollected in Fuxingzhai is the closest to the edition revised by Jia Cunren. And this edition also has become the most popular one for us.
