Su Wu was a minister of the Western Han Dynasty. He was once an envoy by the order of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che. The Xiongnu's Dadan Yu was very optimistic about Su Wu, thinking that he was a talented person, so he always wanted to surrender Su Wu. Ignoring Shan Yu's coercion and temptation, Su Wu only wanted to return to the Han Dynasty.
After 19 years of unyielding struggle, Su Wu finally returned to the Han Dynasty. Su Wu was born in 140 BC as the son of Su Jian , the governor of the Han Dynasty. His early career went smoothly. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Su Wu as an envoy to the Xiongnu, which was a turning point in his life. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, as the emperor, no longer gave in to the Xiongnu like the previous emperor. He took a series of tough measures and sent generals , Weiqing, , Huo Qubing, etc. Huns. When Qi Danhou succeeded Shan Yu, he was afraid of the suppression of the Han Dynasty by force, so he sent people to seek reconciliation.
For the friendship between the two countries, Emperor Wu Che of the Han Dynasty appointed Su Wu as the general of the Chinese lords and sent the Huns as envoys. After Su Wu arrived at the Xiongnu, Qidan Hou Danyu warmly treated them and prepared to send someone to escort Su Wu and others back to Han. Unfortunately, there was a division within the Huns at that time. The Huns and Yu Chang were preparing to rebel. This was not about Su Wu and the others, but Yu Chang bought out Zhang Sheng from Su Wu's envoy team and asked Zhang Sheng for help, and Zhang Sheng also agreed.
In the end, the rebellion of King Shijiantang and Yu Chang ended in failure, and Su Wu and Zhang Sheng were also implicated. Shan Yu wanted to kill Su Wu, but he cherished Su Wu's talent and wanted to surrender him, but Su Wuning couldn't follow him. She was angry and told Su Wu to go to Beihai to herd sheep without giving him food or drink, and told him that as long as ram gave birth to lambs, he would be released back to China. Su Wu kept sheep for 19 years. Later, the Xiongnu's Xindanyu succeeded to the throne, and Xindanyu made friends with the Han Dynasty.So he sent Su Wu back to the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, the Xiongnu Shanyu exiled Su Wu to Beihai. This group of poems called "The Four Poems of Su Wu" was written at that time.
