Xie Lingyun is good at describing the tour experience and natural scenery in rich and delicate language, and has many wonderful sentences with vivid images and beautiful artistic conception.
Xie Tiao's landscape poems have made great achievements, with meticulous observation, vivid description, beautiful style and sweeping away metaphysical words. The scenery is lyrical, fresh and natural, with novel artistic conception, full of emotion and many beautiful sentences. Such as "Yu Xia scattered into enchanting scenery, Chengjiang quiet as practice" ("Going to Wangjing Town in the Late Night"), "Knowing the boat in the sky, debating the river trees in the clouds" ("Introducing Banqiao from Xinlin Xuancheng County"), "Fish play a new role, birds scatter flowers and fall" ("You Dongtian") and so on. It is well known.
The creation of Daxie and Xiao Xie greatly enriched and developed the realm of poetry, making the description of landscape independent from metaphysical poetry, thus reversing the style of metaphysical poetry since the Eastern Jin Dynasty and establishing the status of landscape poetry. Since then, landscape poetry has become a genre in the history of China's poetry development. It also has a certain influence on the development of Tang poetry.

Poetry is the most remarkable achievement of Jian 'an literature. Many works in this period draw nutrition from the folk songs of Han Yuefu, which can reflect the social unrest and the pain of people's displacement at that time, and reflect the desire and ideal of demanding national stability and unity. Its mood is generous and sad, its language is vigorous and powerful, and it has distinct characteristics of the times. As Liu Xie's "Wen Xin Diao Long Time Series" said: "When you look at it, you are generous, and good things are scattered in the world, so you are generous and angry."
This outstanding achievement and characteristic of Jian 'an poetry formed the traditional style which was later called "Jian 'an style", which originally referred to people's character and character, and was also a term in ancient literary theory. Starting from Jian 'an literature, some people say that only works that can reflect social reality and are generous and tragic can have "character".

The main contribution of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty in the history of the development of China's ancient prose is that it reversed the formalism tendency that ruled the literary world for a long time, inherited the fine tradition of early prose, and made some innovations and developments, thus creating a new situation in prose creation and pointing out the direction for the development of ancient prose. The mainstream of prose in and after the Song Dynasty continued to develop on the basis of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, this does not mean that after an ancient prose movement, there will never be a formalism countercurrent in the literary world again. In fact, after Liu Han, there are two general trends in the development of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty: one is that Li Ao, as the representative, tends to explain, narrowing the scope of reflecting reality; Second, Huang Fushi, Sun Qiao and others "pursue the strange", which makes the article obscure and difficult to understand, which is not conducive to the development of ancient Chinese prose.
