The poems of Chimonanthus praecox and Liu Mengde's Zhi Zhu Ci are lean and vigorous, rich in the left and ill in the right, and the pen is like a thousand umbrellas and withered vines, like oblique wind and rain. Li Bai's poems recalling the past are full of vigor, twists and turns, endless changes, and the whole story is like a whirlwind. As Zhou Bida's White Poem in Gu Caoshu wrote, "Gaifei's quip is not enough to make dragons and snakes fly."
