The nine representative novels of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties contain a large number of ancient poems, including 275 poems and 82 Ci. The poems quoted in these novels, mainly Tang poetry and Song Ci, were the classic expression of Tang poetry and Song Ci; They were mainly composed of minority poems, and few famous works were selected. Mainly popular poetry, fewer elegant and implicit poems were chosen; Most of the poems were exhortation, carrying the author’s intention of enlightenment. The formation of these characteristics is due to the literary proposition of “Reaching and surpassing the level of Tang and Song poetry” in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, the popularity of popular poems advocated by Ming people, the favor of booksellers, the emphasis on moral exhortation in novels, and the Confucian tradition of “poetry teaching”.
