There were four great poets in the mid-Southern Song Dynasty-Yang Wanli, Fan Chengda, You Mao and Lu You. Yongjia Siling specializes in five laws, with narrow materials and trivial carving. The pattern of Jianghu Poetry School is more open than that of Siling, with a wider range of themes and exquisite overall style, and it has not broken away from the old habits of the late Tang Dynasty.
