The artistic achievements of Qu Yuan's works have a great influence on later generations. First of all, he laid the foundation for China's positive romantic creation and enriched the expressive force of China's literature. Since then, poetry and Sao have coexisted in the world, forming two outstanding traditions of China's poetry creation, and * * * has expanded the development path of China's classical literature. Secondly, the Chu Ci style created by Qu Yuan broke through the expression form of The Book of Songs. This is the liberation of a poetic genre. It is not only one of the direct sources of Han Fu, but also has an important influence on the reform and innovation of later poetry forms. In terms of expressive techniques, Qu Yuan developed the figurative techniques in The Book of Songs, which contributed to the formation of the national characteristics of China's poems.

Qu Yuan's works are full of positive romantic spirit. Its main performance is that he integrated his passionate pursuit of ideals into artistic imagination and magical artistic conception. For example, Li Sao wrote that after he gave a speech to Zhong Hua, he went against the wind. He knocked at the heavenly palace first, but the emperor didn't accept it. He begged a girl who happened not to be there; He pursued Fu Fei, but Fu Fei was rude to him; He wanted Judy and Er Yao, but he didn't have a good matchmaker to deliver the news. This fantasy and pursuit of going to heaven and going to earth embodies Qu Yuan's hard pursuit of ideals in reality. In addition, Nine Songs and Tian Wen also use a lot of myths and historical legends as materials, with bold and rich imagination, which is rare in ancient and modern times.

Chu Ci initiated romanticism: Qu Yuan's romanticism had a far-reaching influence on later literary creation. In particular, Li Bai, a great romantic poet in ancient China, also consciously studied Qu Yuan's positive romantic writing techniques. There are many Luo Zhi myths and legends, historical figures, the sun and the moon in Li Bai's poems, which constitute a magnificent picture.

Besides, Qu Yuan's works also use a series of metaphors to express his feelings. For example, he used flowers and herbs to describe a noble gentleman; Use smelly things and Xiao Ai as metaphors for traitors or disloyal villains; Wearing vanilla symbolizes the poet's moral cultivation. This technique of "vanilla beauty" makes a sharp contrast between loyalty, ugliness, goodness and evil in reality, and produces a concise and endless artistic effect.
