Song ci is another new literary genre after Tang poetry, which can be divided into graceful school and wild school The graceful and restrained school is represented by Li Qingzhao, Liu Yong and Qin Guan. The uninhibited school is represented by Xin Qiji, Su Shi, Yue Fei and Chen Liang. Song ci was very flashy in the early stage of its development, and it was very popular in street restaurants. It is a popular art form, which is considered as vulgar and vulgar folk art, and it is difficult to reach the elegant hall. There were many prostitutes in the Song Dynasty, and their level was particularly high, which was rare in other dynasties. Prostitutes and gifted scholars in Song Dynasty promoted the new art form of Ci.
Yuanqu, also known as sandwich, is a new popular art form in the Yuan Dynasty. Zaqu and Sanqu both belong to Yuanqu, but sometimes they also refer to Zaqu. Zaju is a kind of funny performance form in Song Dynasty, and it developed into a drama form in Yuan Dynasty. Each book is mainly 40% off, which is especially popular in Dadu (now Beijing). Qu is more colloquial in choosing words and making sentences, which is different from over-concentrated and carved poems. Qu advocates interest and has the characteristics of flexible expression, focusing on straightforwardness and vulgarity, using fu more than interest, loving drawing lines and expressing his mind directly.
Different periods of Tang poetry have different melodies, some are impassioned, some are touching and euphemistic, and some praise heroism. Song ci is like a dazzling starry sky, which makes people yearn for it. Yuanqu, on the other hand, is used to delight and comfort people's exhausted hearts.
