Cai Lun
Cai Lun (CE 48–121), courtesy name Jingzhong (敬仲), was a Chinese eunuch, inventor, and politician of the Han dynasty.
He is traditionally regarded as the inventor of paper and the papermaking process, in forms recognizable in modern times as paper (as opposed to papyrus).
Although early forms of paper had existed in China since the 2nd century BCE, he was responsible for the first significant improvement and standardization of papermaking by adding essential new materials into its composition.
Cai Lun served in the court of Emperor He of Han (reigned 88–106), who granted him an aristocratic title and great wealth, and the court of Empress Deng Sui who is considered the first to champion the use of paper.
Cai was a supporter of Empress Dou and played a part in the death of her rival Consort Song.
In CE 121, Emperor An of Han (reigned 106 to 125), a grandson of Consort Song, gave commands for the imprisonment of Cai Lun.
Cai Lun committed suicide by poison before the imperial order could be carried out.
Cai was later revered in Chinese ancestor worship.
Fei Zhu of the later Song Dynasty (960–1279) wrote that a temple in honor of Cai Lun had been erected in Chengdu.

Emperor Zhang of Han
Emperor Zhang of Han (57 – 9 April 88) was an emperor of the Chinese Han dynasty from 75 to 88.
He was the third emperor of the Eastern Han.
Emperor Zhang was a hardworking and diligent emperor.
He reduced taxes and paid close attention to all affairs of state.
Zhang also reduced government spending as well as promoted Confucianism.
As a result, Han society prospered and its culture flourished during this period.
Along with his father Emperor Ming, Emperor Zhang's reign has been highly praised and was regarded as the golden age of the Eastern Han period, and their reigns are collectively known as the Rule of Ming and Zhang.
During his reign, Chinese troops under the leadership of General Ban Chao, progressed far west while in pursuit of Xiongnu insurgents harassing the trade routes now collectively known as the Silk Road.
The Eastern Han dynasty, after Emperor Zhang, would be plagued with internal strife between royal factions and eunuchs struggling for power.
The people for the coming century and a half would yearn for the good days of Emperors Ming and Zhang.
(However, part of the strife came from the power obtained by consort clans – and the precedent was set by Emperor Zhang's bestowing of power on both his adoptive mother Empress Dowager Ma's clan and his wife Empress Dou's clan.)
Consort Song
Consort Song (died 82), posthumously known as Empress Jingyin (敬隱后; literally "the respectful and hidden empress"), was an imperial consort for Emperor Zhang of the Han dynasty of China.
She was a victim in a power struggle at the hands of Emperor Zhang's empress consort, Empress Dou.
Consort Song was the older daughter of Song Yang (宋楊), a seventh-generation descendant of Song Chang (宋昌), an important official during the reign of Emperor Wen.
Song Yang was famed for his filial piety.
His aunt was the maternal grandmother of Emperor Ming's wife Empress Ma, and Empress Ma, upon hearing that his two daughters were both intelligent and beautiful, selected them as consorts for her adopted son, Crown Prince Liu Da.
After Liu Da became emperor in 75 (as Emperor Zhang), both of them became imperial consorts.
The elder Consort Song gave birth to a son, Liu Qing, in 78, and because Empress Dou did not have a son, Liu Qing was created crown prince in 79.
Empress Dou was not satisfied with the situation, however, and in 79, after another imperial consort, Consort Liang, gave birth to a son named Liu Zhao, she adopted Liu Zhao and intended to make him crown prince instead.
After Empress Dowager Ma died later that year, Consort Song was left without anyone to protect her, and Empress Dou began to plot her destruction.
In 82, an opportunity came for Empress Dou.
Consort Song had become ill, and in her illness, she craved raw cuscuta, and she requested that her family bring them.
Empress Dou seized the cuscuta and falsely accused Consort Song of using it for witchcraft.
Emperor Zhang was enraged and expelled Liu Qing from the palace.
He had Consort Song and her sister arrested and interrogated by the eunuch Cai Lun.
Consort Song and her sister saw that they were in deep straits, and they committed suicide by poison in June 82 (according to the "Zizhi Tongjian").
Her son Liu Qing would be deposed and replaced by Liu Zhao, who later became Emperor He.
After the destruction of the Dou clan in 92 (in which her son Liu Qing had a hand) and Empress Dowager Dou's death in 97, she was posthumously honoured.
In 121, with her grandson Liu Hu having ascended the throne (as Emperor An), Consort Song was posthumously honoured with the title Empress Jingyin.
Liu Qing (prince)
Liu Qing( 78 – 106), formally Prince Xiao of Qinghe( 清河孝王) or Emperor Xiaode( 孝德皇), was a crown prince of the Han dynasty under his father Emperor Zhang who lost his position and his mother Consort Song due to palace intrigue at the hands of his father's wife Empress Dou.
He, however, maintained a strong relationship with his brother Emperor He, and was able to avenge himself and his mother in conjunction with his brother.
During his lifetime, he saw his son Liu Hu( 劉祜) become emperor( as Emperor An) as successor to his nephew Emperor Shang, who died in infancy.
