He did experiments on concubines and mothers, pioneered the method of foot binding, and created a record of female foot binding in China.

There is also a saying that foot binding began in the Tang Dynasty and originated from Persian dance. The Southern Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty are not far apart. Moreover, the theory that foot binding originated from dance is more credible than before.

Foot-binding is an act that destroys the normal development of limbs. A woman who binds her feet should bind her feet from an early age and slowly bend the bones of her feet to deform them.
