Zengguang Xianwen emphasizes the importance of reading and the value of filial piety, which embodies the orthodox Confucian spirit. But it is precisely because of this complexity that people with different ideas can see their own proverbs and aphorisms, which are widely representative.
Graceful prose is selected from rhyming proverbs and well-written literature. Its content is very extensive, from etiquette and morality, laws and regulations to scenery allusions, astronomy and geography, and every sentence is fluent and easy to understand. But the center is about the philosophy of life and the way to live.
Some of these proverbs and sayings reflect the fine tradition of hard work, plain living and hard struggle formed by the Chinese nation for thousands of years and become valuable spiritual wealth, such as "a year's plan lies in spring, and a day's plan lies in the morning"; Many contents about society and life, after the vicissitudes of the world, have become proverbs to warn people, such as "a good medicine tastes bitter and is good for illness, but advice when it is unpleasant is good for action" and "good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil".
