He often travels around Dongshan in Huiji, reciting poems and talking about articles. He was very famous among the literati class at that time, and everyone thought he was a very talented person. But he would rather live in seclusion in Dongshan than be an official. It was not until he was in his forties that he came out to be an official again. Because Xie An lived in seclusion for a long time, he came out to be an official again, and was later called "a comeback".
