This paper discusses the ideological content of Lin Zexu's poem Zayong beyond the Great Wall.

The poem begins with the scenery: "Tianshan Mountain is full of Qiong Yao, leading me to the West with loneliness." There are tens of thousands of snow peaks in Tianshan Mountain, as steep as water and as white as jade. They guided the author westward, accompanying and comforting each other along the way. The so-called "loneliness" in the poem is not only the loneliness of Lin Zexu in exile, but also his loneliness in political stance. In the late Qing Dynasty, the imperial court was corrupt and incompetent. Foreign invaders poisoned China with opium first, and then plundered the land with guns when China "Serenade defended the enemy and had no money to pay". The people are in dire straits and the country is at stake. At this critical juncture, Lin Zexu strongly advocated anti-Japanese invasion and shocked China and foreign countries with the incident of "Humen destroying opium". However, the "peace faction" headed by the emperor is willing to be humiliated, and it is unreasonable to exclude and crack down on the "war faction". Lin Zexu's mood and Xin Qiji, a patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote in "Fishing" that "if you buy someone for 1000 yuan, what's the complaint?" He was loyal to killing the enemy and serving the country, but he didn't get the attention of the court. Loneliness is unforgettable.
