The adherents of the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty are two peaks in the history of the Chinese adherents. Their historical backgrounds coincide with each other, i.e., both of them are perished after other tribes' invasion. The despised people of minorities who are good at shooting with bow and riding horses conquer the people of Han who claim to be noble. Thereupon, the rise and fall of one clan name for one nation is interwoven with the conflicts and contradictions among tribes. The adherents of the two dynasties cannot accept other tribes' clan names, and at the same time they are maintaining their own cardinal guides (ruler guides subject) and resisting the oppression and discrimination from other tribes, which, to some extent, has deeper meaning than those ordinary adherents who are loyal to their own nation and not subject to any new dynasty. In literature history, the literature produced by the adherents of Song and Ming Dynasty can never be neglected, especially their contribution to the history of poetry, which is sung highly by posterity. Owing to the different historical stages, social environments, policies of the new dynasties, and social trends of thoughts, their mentality of literature production and psychosis are diverse, which leads to the discrepancy of their keys in poetry.The cut-in of this paper is mainly the poetry produced by the adherents of the two dynasties. Based on previous researches, the paper, from a new perspective of the current researches on litterateurs, attempts to explore and analyze the differences of the two golden peaks' psychological and mental states influenced by various social environments, social trends of thoughts, cultural traditions and so on, and hopefully others may come up with more valuable opinions. The paper also tries to reveal the development and changes of the adherents' spirits, re-survey the function of Chinese people' s integrity and spirit as a pillar, probe into the mental changes of the poets among the adherents of Song and Ming Dynasty, and bring to light the similarities and differences of the two dynasties' adherents in poetic psychology and creative spirit.The paper can be divided into three parts. The first part, from the angle of regional cultures, compares the diverse distribution of the twodynasties adherents in regions, and the regional, cultural factor for the emergence of the two adherents' poetry groups. Furthermore, this part analyzes the love knot of the two adherents poets for their onetime capitals, thereby the great influence of the regional cultures on the two adherents' poetry creation is self-evidence. The second part emphasizes the mental sates of the two dynasties' adherents. The basic distinction of the their adherents' spirits form the gap between the adherents of the two dynasties, what' s more, the different understanding and acceptance of the Buddhism thoughts makes the adherents of the two dynasties' psychological states develop towards two diverse directions further. Moreover, this part also analyzes the difference of the two dynasties' adherents' psychology and their characteristics on poetry creation according to the case study of the commoner poet as an adherent. The third part summarizes the two dynasties' adherents' mental characteristics on poetry creation, and makes it clear that the two dynasties' adherents' allegiance and uprightness spirits come down in one continuous line under multiple melodies, and that the adherents of Ming Dynasty surpass those of Song Dvnasty.As a summary, although the adherents of Song and Ming Dynasty have smilar social backgrounds, their creative psychology is diverse due to the different social trends of thoughts and their distinct understanding of ruler, nation and national righteousness. Compared to the adherents of Song Dynasty, those of Ming Dynasty provide us with a more rational model of pondering over and adhering to the national spirits under a certain historical stage.
