Guan Yunshi (1286-1324) originally named Xiaoyunshi Haiya, also known by his literary name Suanzhai or Luhua Taoist Monk, was an Uygur by nationality. The descendant of a general, Guan shifted his interest from the military to the literary, and became a student of Yao Sui's. His achievements in poetry, prose, and calligraphy were all considerable. Guan was an important writer of Sanqu poetry in the late Yuan dynasty, and was paralleled with Xu Zaisi(with the literary name "Tianzhai"). The style of Guan's poetry is one of swiftness and grandness.

寿阳曲·无题(一)
With the waves fish play.
鱼吹浪,
On the sands wild geese stay.
雁落沙,
Leaning on Mount Wu, a blue screen hung up high.
倚吴山翠屏高挂。
The tide comes like thousands of drums thundering by,
看江潮鼓声千万家,
While the jade-like beauty raising the red curtain meets the eye.
卷朱帘玉人如画。
