The poems of Liying are elegant and beautiful in one hand, while on the other hand are poor and cool. The reclusive thought of the poet promoted him to write poems with beauty and elegance due to the natural scenery of Yuhang and the turbulent society in Xiantong period. The reasons why the poems are also poor and cool are that the scholar-bureaucrats struggled between living in seclusion and saving the nation which was caused by the national unrest during Xiantong period, as well as the communication with Jiadao and monk friends.The characteristics of Xinatong period and the thoughts and experiences of Liying contributed to the beautiful and poor style of poetry.
