As a literati, self-cultivation, cultivation, family unity, and governance are the lifelong ideals of literati, and the same is true of Li Zhong. His persistent pursuit of fame and fame, even if the head is white, there is no regret. His entry is not simply to improve his life, but more reflects the spirit of positive energy for the country and the people. In Li Zhong's poems, there will be experiences about the cultivation of the monastery mind, he cultivates the mind in the monastery, forgets all the troubles of dust, and after leaving, he embarks on the road of pursuing his career again, which shows his dedication to fame and fortune.

In many of Li Zhong's poems, he often exchanged poetic skills with his friends, and his heart was overflowing with words, and he hoped to be loved by dignitaries, appreciated and recommended, and hoped to achieve the ultimate goal of entering the eunuch, so as to realize his ideals and lofty ambitions. Therefore, some of Li Zhong's poems are suspected of showing off their talents, and there is also a trace of flattery and motives. However, it is undeniable that Li Zhong's heart is full of loyalty and filial piety to the country, and he repeatedly shows in his poems that he calls for the weakness of the current bureaucrats and awakens them to serve the country together.
According to records, Li Zhong pursued the entry into the army all his life, but he only served as a few county orders, so for a literati with great ambitions like him, he could not satisfy his desire for fame. Under the long-term depression, the idea of seclusion will gradually surge into Li Zhong's heart. However, he could not give up his career and promotion, and under his poetry, he also showed the intention of retiring after he achieved fame. However, the facts are contrary to his thoughts, they cannot achieve fame, and the hidden thoughts gradually spread, and his heart is complex, helpless, and contradictory.
Li Zhonghui will use the scene that heralds the decline and associate it with his own bumpy fate, which is his lament for life and represents the common encounter of the next group of intellectuals. In addition, Li Zhong often compares his friend's pingbu Qingyun with his white hair, reflecting his sadness of not being ambitious. With such a fate and physical decay, Li Zhong was disappointed and extremely yearning for the leisurely and unloving life of others, and the hidden heart was his way to get rid of such a fate, and it was also a kind of inner liberation that he had worked tirelessly throughout his life to pursue the fruitless pursuit of serving the country.
It is worth mentioning that Li Zhong attaches great importance to friendship, and his desire for friendship, his cherishing of friends, and his expectations for his reunion in the future will be recorded in the poem. There are many of his travel poems, the emotions are sincere, there is a sense of feeling, the sense of picture is very strong, reflecting the poet's rich emotions, people are moved. The same is true for family affection, which is much less than the poems about friendship, but in the few poems about family affection, it can be fully explained that he is a real man with flesh and blood. Forced to leave his hometown due to his lifelong pursuit of entry, his longing for his hometown is overflowing with words, and his homesickness is fully reflected in some of his poems.

His poems are neat, incisive, without allusions, the language is ordinary, catchy, and the artistic effect is excellent.
