Literary achievements
Lu You has many literary talents, especially his achievements in poetry. He claimed to have more than 9,300 poems in 60 years. It can be roughly divided into three periods: before entering Shu at the age of 46, it tends to be literal; From entering Shu to retiring at the age of 64, it is the mature period of his poetry creation, and it is also a period of great changes in his poetry style.

Lu You's seven-character quatrains are many, and the famous ones are:
1, in November, it was stormy: I was lying in a lonely village, not mourning myself, but thinking about serving my country. The night will be over, I lie in bed listening to the sound of wind and rain, in a daze in my dream, riding an armored horse across the frozen river to the northern battlefield.
2. Show your son: If you die, you will know that everything is empty, but you will not see Kyushu. Therefore, when the great Song Jun team recaptures the Central Plains, you will hold a home banquet ceremony. Don't forget to tell me the good news!
3, the early summer quatrains: red and purple have become dust, and the cuckoo sounds new in summer. It was during my endless journey in Sang Ma that I realized that I was a peaceful person.
4, looking north: looking north at the Central Plains full of tears, Huangqi dreams of crossing the river. Husband died of poverty, if there is such a person in Jiangnan.
5, reading: Gui Zhining has no five acres of land, and the original intention of reading is Yuanyuan. Although the eyesight in front of the lamp is not what it used to be, it is still second to none.
