At the beginning of the article, the analogy of "mountain" and "water" is used to draw out that the humble room has the nature of name and spirit, point out the main idea, and imply that the humble room is not humble (compare the humble room with mountains and rivers, compare the fairy with the dragon, and compare the name with the spirit).
Intention
From the perspective of intention, The Book of Humble Rooms expresses its ambition by means of setting off. In a reverse way, he never mentioned the "ugliness" of the humble room, but only wrote the "ugliness" side of the humble room, and "ugliness" was due to "virtue and fragrance", thus naturally achieving the purpose of expressing his feelings. It expresses the author's moral integrity, his interest in being poor and happy, and his feelings of not colluding with the secular world.
Clues
From the clues, the concept of "only my virtue and fragrance" runs through the whole paper: at the beginning, "only my virtue and fragrance" is introduced, and then "only my virtue and fragrance" is expressed in terms of room environment, people in contact and daily life, and finally "Zhuge Lu" and "Zi Yun Ting" are used as a "background". This is the author's subjective feeling.

the article is skillful in using allusions. For example, take "Zhuge Lu" and "Ziyun Pavilion" as examples, and quote Confucius' words-"What's wrong with it?" Explain that the humble room is not humble, thus enhancing the credibility and persuasiveness of the article's reasoning.
In short, the author does not flaunt himself as a "gentleman" in the article, but respects the morality of a gentleman and studies law, which shows a detached, open-minded and optimistic attitude towards life frustration and career bumps. Only in this way, we regard it as a lyric poem to praise the humble room to show the owner's indifferent and elegant life interest, rather than an essay to explain that the humble room is not humble.
