Chapter 331
Li Shimin also likes poetry and prose, so Li Chengqian also put some thought into it.

But after talking a few words, Wang Dong also had to admit that writing poetry requires talent, and Li Chengqian's talent in poetry is mediocre, so although he has learned a lot about poetry theory and other things that can be supplemented later in life, but It's just an average level when you really pick up poetry, but Wang Dong's poetry should be even higher than him with persistent additions.

What really surprised Wang Dong was that throughout the conversation, Li Chengqian maintained an attitude of being a corporal.It seemed to mean that in Li Chengqian's heart, Wang Dong was no longer an ordinary personal military officer, but a person who could talk with him on an equal footing.Li Chengqian's change of attitude was naturally due to the outflow of Wang Dong's poems. What surprised Wang Dong was that he could raise a person's social status so much by writing only two poems in this era. At this time, the meaning of being a poet has been refreshed.

Writing poetry these days is a kind of national entertainment, and it may be more influential than later pop songs, so a top poet's status is probably equivalent to the status of later pop kings, although at some point he cannot change Chengchaotang has the substantive rights like those of the princes, but the social influence cannot be underestimated. Li Chengqian wants to shape the image of the future virtuous monarch, so he naturally has to show respect for such talented people. After understanding Li Chengqian's thoughts, Wang Dong soon discovered the real reason why Li Chengqian wanted to chat with him today.

This guy kept bringing up the topic of poetry theory, asking repeatedly, and Wang Dong soon found out that this guy obviously wanted to gain his reputation.

Wang Dong didn't want to get involved in such things, but he also understood very well that the leader asked him to discuss work and signaled that he would help him to make a name for himself. If he was not conspicuous, then his work would be regarded as not doing a good job. Offending Li Chengqian is no worse than others Is the situation more dangerous?
Helpless, Wang Dong could only be hypocritical with Li Chengqian for a while, and then naturally pretended to be inspired by Li Chengqian in the process, and came up with some novel theories. These theories were actually summarized in later Tang poems, but to Li Chengqian's ears they were all the same. Li Chengqian nodded inwardly as he was refreshed, and very much hit the pain point of the poetry circle at this time. Sure enough, Wang Cai's talent and learning are not nonsense.

Under Li Chengqian's expectant eyes, Wang Dong also had an excited expression on his face, repeatedly saying that he would publish these fresh theories inspired by the conversation with the prince in two days.

Hearing that Li Chengqian was really overjoyed, although these theories were published in the identity of Wang Dong, the authorship of a second work can be regarded as falling on Li Chengqian's head. Today, the purpose of calling Wang Donglai has finally been achieved, how can you be unhappy?
"Okay, okay, if this theory of poetry can be published, it will definitely cause some repercussions among scholars all over the world, and it will be considered something interesting in today's literary world." Li Chengqian laughed.

Seeing this guy's young and mature appearance, Wang Dong couldn't help laughing in his heart. This kid tried his best to pretend to be a deep-rooted man, but in fact he was... um... he was still young after all.

At this moment, Qiao Luohan suddenly came in, bowed to Li Chengqian, and then whispered something in his ear, although it was whispered, but Wang Dong's hearing was strong enough, so he could hear clearly.

"His Royal Highness, King Wei is here, waiting outside the door."

King Wei?Wang Dong couldn't help but feel a string in his heart. Having known the history of the early Tang Dynasty before, he had a deep impression of the name Wei Wang.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, fought to the death with Li Chengqian's two palaces, which finally led to the failure of Li Chengqian's coup. At the same time, he also implicated the deposed second son of the empress.

Wang Dong could instantly sense this guy's appearance, so Li Chengqian's attitude must be bad.

He quietly raised his eyes to look at Li Chengqian, and sure enough, he saw a look of astonishment on Li Chengqian's face for a moment, and a slight displeasure the next moment.

He did not shy away from Wang Dong and asked directly: "What is the purpose of King Wei coming here?"

Qiao Luohan saw that Li Chengqian didn't mind, so he didn't carry Wang Dong behind his back, and whispered: "The king of Wei just came from Wude Hall before."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help snorting coldly.

Wang Dong also reacted in his heart.

With the situation of Li Shimin's court situation, after Li Shimin's death, his throne can only be inherited by the heirs of Empress Changsun. This is not to say that Li Shimin loves Empress Changsun so much, but it is impossible to change due to a series of comprehensive factors.

Empress Changsun died this year, so the quota for the three contestants to participate in this battle for succession has also been set, Prince Li Chengqian, Wei Wang Li Tai, and Jin Wang Li Zhi.

Of course, Li Zhi, the future big winner, at this time, no one can see that he is the dark horse in the future.After all, this kid is only eight years old this year, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai have already reached the age of 17 and 16 respectively, which is the age to participate in the battle for succession.

Originally, Li Shimin had always supported Li Chengqian, but since a few years ago, whenever Li Shiming left Chang'an, Li Tai was always by his side.

Generally, the government and the opposition believe that this is because Li Tai is smart and wise, and Li Shimin likes it very much. The emperor loves King Wei more than Prince Li Chengqian.

But after actually getting in touch with Li Chengqian, Wang Dong became suspicious. Even if Li Shimin liked Li Tai, with his city, it was impossible to magnify his love for children to such a conniving level. Wang is at this level, and after learning about Li Chengqian's physical condition, Wang Dong has every reason to suspect that Li Shimin did it out of nowhere.

Firstly, Li Chengqian’s physical condition really makes him unable to leave Chang’an, let alone trek across mountains and rivers with Li Shimin to fight in the north and south. Secondly, if such a prince enjoys the country not long after he ascends the throne, the turmoil in the transitional period will be great for the newly created Tang Dynasty. It will be a heavy blow, and the physical condition of the future heir is also an issue that Li Shimin has to consider.

So it's hard to say in the early stage, but in the later stage Li Shimin's preference for Li Tai is likely to be a plan to ask the prince to hand over the inheritance.Although this trend is not so clear now, since the past two years, Li Shimin's various bans on Li Tai have obviously exceeded the specifications.

Now Li Tai's confiscated land covers more than 20 prefectures, and at the same time he is also the pastor of Yongzhou.You must know that Yongzhou is a part of Chang'an, which is equivalent to handing over a large part of the capital to Li Tailai for disposal.

But to say that Li Tai should now replace Li Chengqian as the crown prince, judging from later history, Li Shimin probably didn't mean it at this time.

Under such a situation, the matter of the Wude Palace can be regarded as a major event in the ten years of Zhenguan. At the beginning of the year, Li Shimin was in the court and proposed to move Li Tai to live in the Wude Palace, which was unanimously opposed by the courtiers.

You must know that the Wude Palace is located in the Daxing Palace, next to the East Palace where Li Chengqian lives. It is very taboo for other houses to live in the palace except the prince, and Li Tai's living location is arranged to be the same as that of Li Chengqian. Recently, it was obviously for the sake of the rumor that the crown prince was unstable. This incident aroused opposition from the whole court, and even the old Wei Zheng also came out to write a letter. Later, according to Wang Dong's memory, it should be that Wei Zheng and others should force Li Shimin. After suppressing this matter, Li Tai did not live in the palace in the end.

But today, this matter is still in between, Li Tai actually went to the palace to see the layout of Wude Hall by himself, as if he was preparing to tidy up his new home and move in, which naturally made Li Chengqian quite dissatisfied.

Dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, and brothers and sisters still have to do it, so Li Chengqian secretly got angry and said to Qiao Luohan: "Let him in."
