Chen Ziang’s poetry creation has made great achievements on the road of innovation of Tang poetry. Lu Zangyong said that he "controlled the decline. The world was suddenly transformed" ("Preface to the Collected Works of Chen Boyu"). Liu Kezhuang of the Song Dynasty said in "Houcun Poetry Talk": "In the early Tang Dynasty, Wang, Yang, Shen, and Song Dynasty were good at naming, but they did not break away from the style of Qi and Liang Dynasties, and they were the first to advocate elegance and dilution. They swept away the frailties of the Six Dynasties and tended to the early Huang Dynasty. , Jian'an is on." Jin Yuanhao's "On Poetry and Quatrains" also says: "The Shen Song Dynasty swept the calligraphy and ink field, and the Qi Liang Dynasty was not defeated. If the merits are equal to those of the Wu Dynasty, they are all accurate." He highly appraised his great contribution as a pioneer in the innovation of Tang poetry. However, some of his poems still have the shortcomings of boring language and unclear images.
Chen Ziang's poetry, with its progressive and substantial ideological content and simple and vigorous language style, had a huge impact on the entire poetry of the Tang Dynasty. Later, Zhang Jiuling's poem "Ganyu" and Li Bai's "Ancient Style" both used his poem "Ganyu" as a learning object. Du Fu spoke highly of him: "After he was born and became a horse, his name is as close as the sun and the moon. ... Loyalty has been established forever, and there is a posthumous chapter in "Ganyu"." ("Chen Shiyi's Former Residence") Du Fu has many people who care about national affairs and people's livelihood. The Psalms are clearly influenced by him. Bai Juyi's "Yuan Jiu Shu" and Yuan Zhen's "Narrative Poems to Le Tian Shu" both mentioned that they worked hard to write allegorical poems and were inspired by Chen Ziang's poem "Ganyu". Bai Juyi also compared Chen Ziang with Du Fu, saying: "Du Fu and Chen Ziang are famous in the world.
