The effects of LiShan's citing for ErYa and GuangYa are that testifying, complementing the words' meaning and developing the explanation. As far an Chinese Dictionary is considered, LiShan's citing can help complement the words' meaning and perfect the explanation.

LiShan cites and hunts after the original forms of the words and sentences in WenXuan texts, which can bring forward the later illustration in a certain extent. Secondly, LiShan's annotation has been of great value for literary quotations study. LiShan searches the headstream of literary quotations, which can correct the inaccuracy about the hunting of literary quotations' derivations. LiShan's annotation can also enlighten us to establish the literary quotations' series. According to the derivations LiShan cites, the different literary quotations' forms that have the same derivation can be connected with one another. Referring to the derivation and the earliest expressions of literary quotations' forms LiShan cites, the different literary quotations that have similar meaning in different sections and chapters can be connected with one another, and then the assembly of the literary quotations of the same meaning is formed. The usage of literary quotations in WenXuan texts and the LiShan's citing provide the illumination of methodology for classification and assembly of literary quotations.The encyclopedical quotation endows the exegesis by quotation manner with extraordinary precious value on the literature. In Qing dynasty, scholars have compiled and classified the books LiShan cites, and collated LiShan's exegeses through checking the books existent at that time. We can sum up the value on the literature from the gained study productions, which is helping compile the lost writings and collect the lost sentences and emending the words and sentences in now existent books.

First, LiShan invents the byelaws of quotation, which makes the exegeses become an organic integration. Secondly, LiShan uses scientific methods. He cites the ancient exegeses, dictionaries and literature materials that have the similar implications to the words and sentences in WenXuan texts. Testification and comparison as two main methods run through the exegeses. The exegesis by quotation manner also has some deficiencies. So LiShan direct annotates by himself and make up the shortages. Many literary quotations are used and the expressions in ancient books are followed in literature. The quotation manner that LiShan chooses suits this language style. Aftertime the laconic and plain style is sparkpluged in the exegeses of classical books and literature books. The leading action of exegesis gains more attentions. The exegesis manner of running down the headstream of sentences is widely used in the poems, short and long sentences, melody and literature.
