Throughout his life, he was proud of his integrity and made his own achievements, and advocated the war of resistance all his life. He once appeared in "Ten Treatises on Meiqin" and "Nine Discussions", showing outstanding military talent and patriotic enthusiasm, and maintained a deep friendship with Song Zhishi and Neo-Confucianism Zhu, making great efforts to govern. Anti-gold and national rejuvenation are the main themes of his works, among which there are many laments of the lost direction of heroes and the idle resentment of the strong, which have distinct characteristics of the times. It also depicts the pastoral scenery, social customs and folk customs of the four seasons in the rural areas of the south of the Yangtze River with vivid and delicate brushstrokes. His ci has a wide range of subjects, and he also makes good use of predecessors' allusions. The style is heavy and heroic, and there is no lack of delicacy and gentleness. On the basis of Su Shi, he greatly developed the artistic conception of Ci and improved the literary status of Ci. Later generations called it "Su and Xin". His poems are also worthy of praise, especially his "powerful pen, ingenious convergence, correct and balanced theoretical style"
Xin Qiji, a patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, is a great poet with pronoun style and a national hero who is good at fighting and familiar with military affairs. His words "boring cymbals loudly, whispering, crossing the Liuhe River and sweeping the ages" have become a treasure in the history of China literature; As a court minister in the Southern Song Dynasty, he wrote an article "Discussing and Training the Militia to Defend Huai Shu", which expressed the author's strong patriotic feelings, incisive and profound analysis of the war situation and clear and concrete countermeasures. This applied essay is full of passion, ingenious, well-founded, accurate and concise. The article only uses more than 600 words, from asking questions, analyzing problems to solving problems in one go. The information, analysis, measures, predictions and words are simple and clear. A heroic and broad-minded poet can write such a rigorous and simple practical article according to the needs of different styles. It can be seen that great writing can't be confined to a narrow world. He should master several sets of pen and ink skillfully, not only have his own favorite style, but also write different genres and styles according to different requirements, just like a martial artist with profound kung fu. Although he is good at a weapon, he is right. Xin Qiji used two completely different styles to express his impassioned patriotic feelings from different sides, reflecting his lofty aspirations and lofty ideals of caring for the country and the people, and his lofty ambition of "a man who has tears does not flick, but wants to make up for the sky". (Excerpted from Applied WritingNo. 1, 0998, Master of Ci Poetry-Reading Xin Qiji)
Strong patriotism and fighting spirit are the basic ideological content of Xin ci, which is first manifested in his ci, and he keeps repeating his nostalgia for the north. In addition, in He Xinlang and Fishing, he satirized the small court in the Southern Song Dynasty with words such as "water left and mountains left" and "heartbroken at sunset", expressing his dissatisfaction with being partial to a corner and unwilling to go north. Ambition is useless, and it is expressed in unspeakable words. In his masterpiece Shui Long Yin, he is good at remembering the past and facing picturesque rivers and mountains and heroes. While inspiring his lofty aspirations, he also expresses the feeling that heroes are useless. The fierce conflict between ideal and reality constitutes the tragic tone of his ci. On the basis of Su Shi's Ci, Xin Ci further expanded the scope of the subject matter, almost to the point of doing nothing and having no intention of entering Ci.
