Wang Wei, also known as Mojie, also known as Mojie layman. A native of Puzhou, Hedong (now Yuncheng, Shanxi), his ancestral home is Qixian County, Shanxi. Famous poet and painter of Tang Dynasty.
Many of Wang Wei's poems are cold and profound, far away from the world, without any smoke from the world, and full of Zen. The artistic conception of landscape has gone beyond the ordinary plain and natural aesthetics, and its meaning has entered a religious realm. This is exactly what it means. An inevitable manifestation of Wang Wei’s Buddhist cultivation.
Wang Wei lived in an era when Buddhism was flourishing. Scholar-officials were very popular in studying Buddhism. Political dissatisfaction and seclusion several times in his life made Wang Wei devote himself to studying Buddhism in order to ignore fame and fortune and get rid of troubles.

Liu Yuxi and his poetic style are quite unique. He had a resolute character and was full of heroic spirit. During the years of exile, when he was still suffering from hardships, he felt heavy psychological distress and sang out a series of lamentations of a lonely minister. But he never despaired and had the soul of a fighter.
In addition to poetry and essays, Liu Yuxi’s Ci and Fu creations are also an important link that cannot be ignored in the history of Ci and Fu in the Tang Dynasty, and even in the entire history of Ci and Fu. Compared with the number of poems and poems, it is not too small.
