[Vol. 1] Section 115: Strange Man Dongfang Shuo 2

------------

In the third year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, Liu Che was obsessed with outdoor sports, and the servant Zhonglang Wu Qiu Shouwang, who had been accompanying the left and right, took the opportunity to propose to set aside the land of Nanshan to build the Shanglin Garden, which was specially used by the emperor to hunt.

Liu Che immediately decided that this was a good idea, and King Wuqiu Shou was in charge of the construction.

However, at the same time, Dongfang Shuo, who was next to him, jumped out, he changed his witty image, and solemnly admonished Liu Che not to build Shanglin Garden, and he talked eloquently, probably because once it was built, it would involve the demolition and resettlement of the people, and it would also involve the problem of luxury atmosphere.

Dongfang Shuo's words are quoted from the side, talking about the past and the present, regardless of whether it is reasonable or not, the eloquence and learning alone make the people present admire, not only that, Dongfang Shuo said on the spot, I will also have a formal performance for this matter, the topic has been thought of, called "Tai Rank Six Fu".

The attitude of the Dongfang brother is so clear, and he can't see that he is joking at all, which makes many people unacceptable for a while, especially Wuqiu Shouwang, who has played chess with Liu Che for more than ten years, and finally got a project to please the master, and he is counting on it to make some achievements, but he didn't expect to be opposed by the Oriental immortals, and the people who have also been edicted, why bother each other? Although King Wuqiu Shou was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to refute it for a while, he knew better than anyone that this immortal really couldn't be provoked.

He could only look at Liu Che with a blank eye, hoping that he could give a word as soon as possible and make the Dongfang Immortal shut up as soon as possible.

Just when everyone thought that Dongfang Shuo would inevitably be punished for pulling the calf this time, Liu Che showed an extraordinary smile.

Liu Che made an even more surprising decision next, he ordered Dongfang Shuo to be promoted to Taizhong Doctor and rewarded with 100 catties of gold. At the same time, he signaled to King Wuqiu Shou that Shanglin Yuan must be built, and after speaking, he drove away.

At this time, even the Dongfang brother himself was stunned, because he really didn't tell any jokes today, and when he spoke, he was serious and serious, without any antics attached. However, Liu Che did the same thing as being amused by Pingshi, and was rewarded with official and wealthy goods.

Dongfang Shuo was promoted, but he was not happy at all, in Dongfang Shuo's heart, such a promotion was actually more uncomfortable than directly slapping his ear.

It is understandable that the admonition was not adopted, but what is ironic is that the admonition that was not adopted led to his promotion and salary increase, the emperor made a big joke!

After this incident, the Dongfang brother suddenly woke up to the fact that if you want to be a minister, you still have to restrain some funny styles, so witty, even when you are serious, others will think that you are not serious.

Dongfang Shuo began to pay attention to his reputation, in addition to his behavior is still a little careless, and his words are no longer proud of humor, he always admonishes himself, the minister of the Son of Heaven, at that time, he is always vigilant and self-conscious, and he has to constantly observe words and feelings.

Sure enough, many of Dongfang Shuo's advice were adopted by Liu Che.

As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. In front of Liu Che, Brother Dongfang restrained his always witty style, but for the minister, Brother Dongfang was never polite, as long as he had the opportunity to ridicule, he would never let it go.

Of course, Brother Dongfang's behavior and attitude have caused dissatisfaction among many people, and he can't fight with him, and he has to put himself on the knife directly, so the people who are hostile to Brother Dongfang intend to collect his handle, and then stab him to the emperor.

Soon, Dongfang Shuo paid the price, and he had a habit that was really amazing.

Dongfang brother is a well-known drunkard, it is not surprising that he is addicted to drinking, but the strange thing is that this Dongfang Shuo dares to run to the palace when he is full of alcohol and runs the train, and it doesn't matter if he runs to the palace, because the drunk can't tell the direction, and what is even more amazing is that he is relieved in the main hall.

also deserves Dongfang Shuo's bad luck, and Dongfang Brother's indecent behavior has been seen.

The ministers who were offended by Dongfang Shuo quickly took the matter to the fold and impeached him for the crime of great disrespect.

On the one hand, Dongfang Shuo's behavior is a little strange, but after all, he is a well-educated person, and his words are humorous, and he often laughs when he gets along with him, and he is really reluctant to kill him. On the other hand, the law of the country is indeed intolerable, and it is difficult for the ministers to explain it.

In the midst of the uproar, Dongfang Shuo's affairs came to an end, and he was dismissed as a concubine to be appointed by the edict.

Dongfang Shuo had to start from scratch again.

But Dongfang Shuo obviously didn't take this seriously, because the Son of Heaven did not forget him, even if he was demoted to a concubine, he could still see Liu Che and make suggestions to Liu Che.

Not long after, Dongfang Shuo's career ushered in a turnaround. Liu Che's sister Long's son broke the law, and Liu Che reluctantly dealt with him according to the law of the country, so he has always felt guilty in his heart.

After Dongfang Shuo heard about it, he immediately gave Liu Che a note, to the effect that the emperor should uphold the law of the country, and His Majesty did the right thing, so there is no need to feel guilty.

In fact, Liu Che has heard a lot of attendants in this meaning, and the courtiers have said that he also knows that Dongfang Shuo is comforting him, but Dongfang Shuo's recital is cleverly written, and it is reasonable and well-founded, which completely calms Liu Che's guilt.

Dongfang Shuo therefore became a Zhonglang again and became a minister by Liu Che's side.

However, Dongfang Shuo's official fortune ended here, and for the next ten years, he could only stand still and could not be promoted.

In Liu Che's eyes, although Dongfang Shuo has outstanding features, his behavior and speech are too weird, he is not Liu Che's ideal backbone, and it is difficult for Liu Che to control, so the smart Liu Che decided to only use his strategy and not use his people.

Next, we have to introduce the outstanding representatives of the Cizhang School who accompanied Liu Che in the early years of the Han Dynasty.

He, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything is exquisite, he is a veritable talent, his rhetoric is written as the best in the world, and what is even more rare is that in his body, there is a beautiful love story.

His name is Sima Xiangru.
