The Four Books of Exhortation
　　Publishing phoenix books is a revered responsibility of phoenix halls. During the late Qing Dynasty all phoenix halls in Yilan were busy producing books. Taiwan’s earliest phoenix books were published in Yilan and included Xingshi Hall’s Golden Folio of Moral Records, Xinmin Hall’s Cautionary Text, Weixingqi’s Hexingwen, and Jianmin Hall’s Hualan Encyclopedia.
