What are the ancient literati and their works that are unappreciated?
There were many stories among ancient scholars about their talents being ignored.

His representative works include "Will Enter Wine","Lushan Ballad" and so on. 2 Qu Yuan: Qu Yuan, a famous writer in the Chu State, chose to commit suicide by jumping into the river after being ostracized and suppressed by the officialdom. His representative works include Li Sao and Tian Wen. 3. Su Shi: Su Shi, a writer of the Song Dynasty, encountered political suppression in his middle age and was demoted to Huangzhou. Later, he was gradually put in an important position, but he always thought that his talent had not been fully displayed. His masterpieces include Shuidiao Geshou and Ode to the Red Cliff. 4. Li Qingzhao: Song Dynasty poetess Li Qingzhao had outstanding literary talent when she was young, but her marriage life unfortunately suffered political suppression and love setbacks many times.
