Wang Anshi likes the poem "The cicada sings in the forest and the palace hill is quieter". He changed it to "Mao Yan sits on the eaves all day, and a bird doesn't sing in the mountain is quieter" in his own poem. Huang Tingjian evaluated his change as turning stone into gold.

Main influence

From the literary point of view, Wang Anshi's works have made outstanding achievements in poetry, prose and ci. The poetry innovation movement in the mid-Northern Song Dynasty was vigorously promoted by him, which contributed to sweeping away the glitz and splendor that was all the rage in the early Song Dynasty.

However, Wang Anshi's literary thought overemphasizes practicality and often underestimates the role of art forms. Many of his poems often show that the elements of argument and reasoning are too heavy, thin and stiff, and lack image and charm. There are also some poems about Buddhism and Buddhism, which are obscure and dry, but they do not lose everyone's demeanor.
