Selected works

Poetry

Send Li Hubu CI ming to Tianjin

Resign to the sea, farewell to Chang'an.

Old to worry about elegant, deep talk about the lung and liver.

The spring of the imperial city is near, and the day and night of the island are cold.

Don't lean on the coral tree. Look straight north from the floating clouds.

Return to dream

The cold dew in my hometown makes the guests feel frightened. At night, there are wild geese in the yellow building.

In the slanting moon, the west wind blows across Jiangcheng.

But memory

The willows of the Yuhe River meet the Jintai, and the fragrant chariots turn to the riverside.

But I remember the peach trees in the south of the Yangtze River, for whom the east wind worries.

Yangchun Pavilion is the eye

Around the guocang mountain, the evening clouds rise, and the withering grass in front of the pavilion is late.

Returning to the pond, the wind settles the autumn, and the Ping gathers together.
