When evaluating Qu Dajun's literary works, later generations think that Qu Dajun's poetry is the highest achievement. According to Zhu Xizu's Textual Research on Qu Dajun's Writings, there are about 30 kinds of Qu Dajun's writings. Before his death, Qu Dajun published poems such as Dao Ji Tang Ji and Weng Shan Wai Shi. After Qu Dajun's death, Poems of Qu Wengshan and Poems of Three Masters of Lingnan came out one after another. The content of Qu Dajun's poems mainly focuses on promoting national integrity. In addition, Qu Dajun's poems also involve people's livelihood. Qu Dajun feeds back the sufferings of the people in his poems. Through the understanding of Qu Dajun's poems, we can see that Qu Dajun is a poet who cares about the society and sympathizes with the sufferings of the people.
Qu Dajun's poems were very popular in Qing Dynasty. During the reign of Kangxi, Zhou Bing, a famous scholar, prefaced Selected Poems of Wengshan. Zhou Bing mentioned in the preface that Qu Dajun's poems are the representative works of "Wengshan School" and are highly respected by people from all walks of life. Later, some scholars pointed out that Qu Dajun's poems were written after the patriotic poet Qu Yuan, so Qu Dajun's poems were full of strong patriotism. Secondly, Qu Dajun also pays attention to realism, so his poems and prose works are very realistic.
Qu Dajun was not only a famous patriotic poet in Ming Dynasty, but also a major general who fought against the Qing Dynasty and regained his sight. As we all know, the anti-Qing movement lasted 100 years. In order to stabilize the Qing regime, the Qing court used harsh laws to buy off anti-Qing people.
