"LunHeng", is the works of Wang Chong from Eastern Han Dynasty, which has always been characterized as "critical book" and has been studied on its critical methods and details by the researchers, etc. Such studies attribute to every aspects of "Po", but ignore the "Li" part. The turning point came when Dr Hu Shi talked about the "Li" aspect of "LunHeng" based on experimentalism. From then more and more scholars attach great importance to the "Li" aspects of "LunHeng". However, most of them only pay close attention to philosophical thoughts in the book. This paper tries to break through it with the beginning of "jixuwang" of "LunHeng", where the author throws light upon "lishicheng" of "LunHeng", pointing out viewpoint "zhenmei" defined by Wang Chong and analyzing its progress in literature.The preamble mainly introduces the present research and the inspiration of this paper.This paper includes three chapters.For the first chapter, it talks about "jixuwang" which is also the stress in conventional research. Firstly, this chapter tidies the contents of the "LunHeng" and places "jixuwang" into the part of "sanzengjiuxu" with the concept that "sanzengjiuxu" stands for the aspect of "Po". And then it analyses the structure of "jixuwang", as well as its expression forms. Lastly, "xu", "wang" and "zeng" are defined separately by literary way. Besides the first chapter is the basis of the whole article.The second chapter talks about "lishicheng" of "LunHeng". It analyses the hidden "lishicheng" coving in the book from the view of literature, which is based on the contrast with the previous chapter In fact, venerating "shicheng" rationally is the core of "LunHeng" and to confirm "zhenmei" but to negate "xuwang" is the most important matter of its literature concept. Either from the content or the feelings, we cannot be hard to find that Wang Chong regards "zhen"(true) as a matter of "mei"(beauty). However, it should be acknowledged that aforesaid literature-involved theory is rather dispersed and cannot be understood at the first glance because of the limit of the very times when the author lived.The third chapter, also the last one, discusses the progress of Zhenmeiguan". This unique concept of Wang Chong is combined with the theories of book"ShiJi", "Wenxindiaolong", and single article "Soushenji" and so on, which points out that the great impact the concept of true beauty "li shi cheng" and "qiu zhen mei" in "LunHeng"leaves on realistic respond in literary creation.
