The content is narrow and narrow. For a long time, words tend to be soft and graceful, so people have formed the concept of graceful and restrained as the authentic one. Taking Li Houzhu, Liu Yong, Zhou Bangyan and other ci writers as "the authenticity of ci" represents this view. Graceful ci style dominated the ci world for a long time. Until the Southern Song Dynasty, a large number of ci writers such as Jiang Kui, Wu Wenying and Zhang Yan all suffered its influence from different aspects.
2. The representatives of the
bold school: Xin Qiji, Su Shi, Chen Liang, Lu You, Zhang Xiaoxiang, Zhang Yuangan, Liu Guo and so on.

The main features: the unrestrained school is characterized by a broad creative vision, a magnificent atmosphere, and a love of writing words with poetic techniques, syntax and typography. After Nandu, due to the great changes of the times, the tragic and generous high-pitched tone developed at the historic moment and became a common practice, and Xin Qiji became a generation of giants and leaders who created bold and unconstrained ci. The school of bold and unconstrained ci not only established a new school, but also made a great impact on the ci circle in the Song Dynasty. From Song Dynasty, Jin Dynasty to Qing Dynasty, there were always poets who held bold and unconstrained flags and studied Su and Xin vigorously.
