I only know that Sadulla's ancestors were from the western regions, and his ancestors Lance Buhua and his grandfather Aruqi started from brawn, which made him contribute a lot. Sai-jo and Ying-zu let Sadulla's grandfather take over Zhan Jie's position and let them guard Jane Yun.

Most of Sadulla's poems describe the endless beautiful scenery in the desert. It is precisely because Sadula has different feelings for frontier fortress that Sadula can write magnificent desert scenery. As we all know, deserts and grasslands are places where Mongolian people live and rest. Then, from the scenery features depicted in Sadula's poems, we can guess that Sadula is a Mongolian. In fact, this statement has not been confirmed.

There are not a few scholars who study Sadula's poems and artistic features, but few scholars who study Sadula nationality mention it. There is no mention of Sadula's nationality in the books and materials that record Sadula's brief introduction and life experience, so we have no way of knowing Sadula's nationality. No matter Sadula's frontier poems or Sadula's landscape poems, most of them describe the different landscapes in the north and south of the river in delicate language. From Sadulla's poems, we can see Sadulla's love for life and yearning for freedom.

Sadulla's Poems and Sadulla's Poems are of great literary and aesthetic value. Sadulla left nearly 800 poems to later generations in his life. Some describe landscapes, some describe the palace life of palace people, and there are a certain number of poems that miss the past and hurt the present. No matter from which aspect, Sadula's poems have enriched the literary history of the Yuan Dynasty and even the whole China. Therefore, Sadulla occupies an important position in the history of China literature.

Farewell to Marshal Guan Nan Zheng, Farewell to Liu Gui Lin, Datong Post, Moonlit Night on the Yellow River and Ode to Women are all representative works of Sadula's poetry. Sadula's poems not only reveal the decadent and dark side of the Yuan society, but also reveal the class contradictions in the Yuan society. In his poems such as Moonlight on the Yellow River and Weaver Girl, Sadulla reflects the hardships of the working people at the lower level. By contrast, Sadulla used bitter language to point to the corruption and incompetence of the supreme ruler. In terms of poetic techniques, Sadula not only inherited the artistic techniques of poetry in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but also put forward new artistic techniques.

Sadulla's poetry works usually take sparse and ordinary life fragments as the starting point, and then construct a poetic artistic conception with long lasting charm through objective scene reappearance. Poems such as Autumn Poems and beginning of spring, the Capital, are the embodiment of Sadulla's "unity of poetry and painting". In addition, Sadulla is good at expressing the thoughts and philosophies contained in his poems with concise language. For example, "the scenery is white through the ages, and the mountains are green in the Six Dynasties" embodies Sadula's concise language characteristics.
