Sikuquanshu is voluminous, but it has never been published in Fu Zi. Only seven volumes are hand-copied, which are stored in Wen Yuan Pavilion in the Forbidden City in Beijing, Wen Yuan Pavilion in Yuanmingyuan in the suburbs of Beijing, Wenshui Pavilion in Fengtian Forbidden City (now Shenyang) and Jinwen Pavilion in chengde mountain resort. The Wenzong Pavilion in Zhenjiang, Wenhui Pavilion in Yangzhou and Wen Lan Pavilion in Hangzhou have experienced vicissitudes, and pavilions and books have been devastated by frequent wars in modern China history. Wenzong Pavilion, Wenhui Pavilion and Wenyuan Pavilion were successively burned by soldiers. Only Yuan Wen, Jinwen, Wensu and Wen Lan still stand in the world. Details are as follows:
