Wang Zheng is a famous Catholic in late Ming and early Qing Dynasty. In his works, there are several literary works quite special. They are all in respond to the works of their predecessors. One of them, "He Tao Jing Jie Xian Sheng Gui Qu Lai Ci ," is responding Tao Yuanming 's "Gui Qu Lai Xi Ci." "Poetry Responding to Tao Yuanming," from the beginning of Su Shi, in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties was popular. Tao Yuan-ming became the cultural symbol of ideal personality and ideal life in the literati between the advance and retreat in the literati scholar's origin. The difference between Wang Zheng's poem and his predecessors is that: Among the most discredited scholars, there are many descriptions of dark politics, more depressed mood of depression, looked forward to return to pastoral through the spirit of detachment. "Tao Yuan-ming" has also become their ideal sustenance. Even they transcend the secular honor or disgrace through Taoism or Buddhist thought, but basically is the pursuit of "this world" detached. As for Wang Zheng's poem, although the subject and the rhyme shows the admirers of Tao Yuanming, but in content, not only talked about the worship of Tao Yuanming, but talked back to the pastoral joy, just talked about the return of life: back to Heaven. How to back to Heaven, he patiently stressed to be conscientious and diligent in this life do good. Such thoughts are also practiced in his later life. Wang Zheng even is near seventy, in addition to "morning and evening incense" and "sincerely silent prayer" of the morning and evening classes, but also engaged in the missionary, fundraising the establishment of Catholic Church, charity organizations to help the poor, the organization of rural self-defense. He truly practiced of "the Awe of Heaven and the Care of Human Beings" thinking in his life. Wang Zheng's poem is a manifestation of Catholic literature, and his later life also allows us to see a Catholic beliefs of the true style.
