Chu Suiliang studied a variety of fonts and used them comprehensively. According to historical records, he studied Ou Yangxun and Shi Ling first, and then his uncle Yu Shinan. He eventually became the "two kings" (the harmony of Wang Xizhi) and merged with him, so he was called "one of the four regular script writers in the early Tang Dynasty", "Ou, Yu, Chu and Xue" and "Chu Feng".

The full name of Meng Fuzi Monument is Meng Fuzi Monument, which is the official inscription in Tang Dynasty. It was written by Cen Wenben and Chu Suiliang in Tang Dynasty, and was engraved in the 16th year of Zhenguan (642). The inscription was lost. Only the rubbings of the Tang Dynasty collected by Calvin in the Qing Dynasty have survived to this day.
Chu Suiliang's regular script works have two different styles before and after their appearance. In the early stage, the calligraphy styles of Yi Que Buddhist Shrine Monument and Master Meng Monument are almost the same, both of which are used. The brushwork such as pen and hook is tall and straight, but the calligraphy and painting are not obvious, which maintains the calligraphy style characteristics of Europe and Yu.
In style, it absorbs the generous and elegant structural features of Yu Shinan's regular script and the sharp brushwork features of Ou Yangxun's regular script. At the same time, their slender glyphs are compressed. Chu Suiliang's early works not only retained the influence of the North Monument, but also incorporated a large number of official scripts in brushwork and structure, but did not copy them rigidly, but selectively absorbed innovations and turned them into their own use.
