The Đề yếu Tứ khố toàn thư suspects that the book already existed in the Tang but was added to by Song-era hands who borrowed the name of Lý Hư Trung. Three reasons are given: the opening section uses only year, month and day, matching Hàn Dũ's tomb inscription; the second half discusses the four pillars, a way of speaking that begins in the Song; and the official titles in the book mostly belong to the Song.
