Biography
A scion of an important Jin dynasty family, Bai Renfu's grandfather held a post at the powerful Bureau of Military Affairs, and his father was a close friend of the poet Yuan Haowen.[1] However, the defeat of the Jin dynasty by the Mongol Empire resulted in a major upheaval in social relationships.
