Zhang Sheng in The West Chamber is a handsome and sentimental young man. His life is bound to be limited by marriage and ethics, but under the bondage of the surface, his heart is full of passion and yearning for freedom and love.

Zhang Sheng is affectionate and romantic. He always expresses his love for his loved ones with affection and sincerity. The love between him and Zijuan is persistent and moving, sometimes seemingly stubborn, but it also makes people feel sincere. When dealing with emotional problems, he is elegant, delicate and full of interest, showing the demeanor and talent of a scholar.

However, Zhang Sheng's image also reveals the cruelty and destruction of feudal ethics. His road to love was imprisoned by the old system and oppressed by secular customs, and it was difficult to have a good ending in the end. His image is similar to other literary works, such as Wen Jun and Wanfan Gongzi. It is full of regret and helplessness, but it also shows the ancient cultural background and spiritual connotation.
