Character evaluation
Zhang Ji's Yuefu poems have a high artistic achievement. He is good at summarizing the opposites of things and forming strong opinions in several articles or one article. Contrast, and good use of sketching techniques to depict the images of various characters carefully and realistically. Most of its genres are new Yuefu "instant famous pieces", and sometimes old titles can be used to create new ideas. The language is simple, yet subtle and subtle, and poetry is often written in spoken language.
He also deliberately refined the conclusion to achieve the implicit criticism and satirical effect. Zhang Ji's Five Rhythms are neither ornamental nor artificial. They are euphemistic and profound in their simplicity and fluency, and have a great influence on the Five Rhythms of the late Tang Dynasty.
