Qu Dajun was not only a famous patriotic poet in the Ming Dynasty, but also a major general in resisting the Qing Dynasty and regaining sight. As we all know, the anti-Qing and anti-Ming movements lasted for more than one hundred years. In order to stabilize the Qing regime, the Qing government used heavy penalties to buy off those who opposed the Qing dynasty and the Ming dynasty.

In other words, before Qu Dajun realized his political ambition, the Ming Dynasty was dead. Under the influence of Chen Bangyan, Qu Dajun joined the anti-Qing and anti-Ming forces. With the suppression of the Qing court, many people who opposed the Qing dynasty and Ming dynasty were persecuted. Qu Dajun pinned his hopes on Zheng Chenggong and Wu Sangui, in order to realize his desire to fight against the Qing Dynasty and regain his sight. When Qu Dajun joined Wu Sangui, he found that Wu Sangui only realized his hegemonic desire under the guise of opposing Qing Dynasty and Ming Dynasty. After recognizing the situation clearly, Qu Jun returned to Guangdong on the grounds of poor health.
Qu Dajun has been living in poverty since he returned to Guangdong. 1674, the Qing government recovered Taiwan Province province. At this time, Qu Dajun knew that the situation had been solved, and he stopped all anti-Qing activities. In his later years, Qu Dajun devoted all his energy to his works. Thanks to Qu Dajun's efforts, he has compiled many works, such as Selected Works of Guangdong, Selected Works of Guangdong and Guangdong New Words.

According to records, Qu Dajun died in his hometown of Guangdong on June 27th, 696, at the age of 66.
