In Wei Yun, the moonlit night is hazy, and the grass insects are singing in the shadows.

Don't wait for the south city to blow the drum horn, the sound of tung will be long.

In the hazy night, the clouds are thin and the moon is bright, and insects sing deep in the grass trees. Cheng Nan's drum hasn't rung yet, and the voice of the buttonwood tree has come with the wind of the even.

Zhang Lei was an important litterateur in the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty, and one of the four bachelor's degree students in Sumen. His literary creation theory originated from Su San, and advocated both arts and sciences. He believed that "literature takes meaning as a car, meaning as a horse, reasoning and strengthening meaning prevail, and literary spirit is like driving" (Writing with friends because of poetry). In his reply to Li's resignation, he clearly pointed out that learning literature lies in understanding. "If you know literature but don't care about it, there will be nothing in the world."

In the style of the article, he opposes simplicity and advocates simplicity; Oppose Qu Hui and advocate rhetoric; Oppose the carving of words, and urge people to conform to heaven and justice and express their feelings directly. "For people, articles are all from the heart, ranging from thinking about merits to carving beauty, which is natural and the way of feeling" (Preface to He Fanggui Yuefu). Zhang Lei's poetic creation is the concrete embodiment of his creative theory, and its advantages and disadvantages are based on it.
