Li Mengyang believes that poetry should reflect social reality and people's wishes, not just pursue the aesthetic taste of literati. In his view, the real value of poetry is that it can truly reflect social life and people's feelings, not whether its language is gorgeous or not, and whether it meets the aesthetic standards of literati. Therefore, he advocated that poetry should come from the people, absorb the nutrition of folk songs, and keep folk and popular.

Influenced by Confucianism, Li Mengyang thought that poetry should be beneficial and inspiring. He believes that poetry is not only a tool to express feelings, but also a means to educate people. Therefore, he advocates that poetry should reflect people's voices and emotions, let people know their life and destiny through poetry, and thus enlighten their minds and souls.

In the Ming Dynasty, literature gradually appealed to both refined and popular tastes, divorced from social reality and people's life. Li Mengyang objected to this writing style. He advocated returning to folk and real life and making literature closer to people and reality.
