Dongfang Shuo and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty met for the first time in the bustling market of Chang'an City. Dongfang Shuo was doing business to survive. He has a glib tone and claims that his wisdom is the best in the world and the emperor is second. Emperor Wu, who was under the control of the Empress Dowager in the palace, happened to go on a private trip to relax. When he heard this, he was jealous and frightened.

The Huns envoys came to Chang'an and asked for the princess's hand in marriage. Emperor Wu felt humiliated and drove the Huns envoys down to the palace. The Empress Dowager summoned Emperor Wu to reprimand him, saying that since the time of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, the Xiaowen and Xiaojing generations had regarded the Huns as invincible and had to "make peace" to ensure peace. Otherwise, there is a risk of re-nesting.

Dongfang Shuo gave Emperor Wu a plan through Princess Pingyang, so that Emperor Wu could openly suppress the calls for peace from the entire dynasty, and angrily swore in front of the civil and military ministers that he would be executed if he proposed peace in the future. No forgiveness!

Emperor Wu praised Sister Pingyang's plan as a good one, but Princess Pingyang laughed and said that this was another idea from an expert behind the scenes. Emperor Wu urgently asked the master who his last name was. When Princess Pingyang spit out the three words "Dongfang Shuo", Emperor Wu was immediately stunned.

Dongfang Shuo waited wholeheartedly for Emperor Wu to appoint him as an official in the court, but Emperor Wu held a grudge against Dongfang Shuo's "Dongfang Shuo No. 1" promotion in the market. He thought Dongfang Shuo was a charlatan. Dongfang Shuo was surprised by Emperor Wu's imperial edict. Emperor Wu only granted him the title of a minor official in Jinmamen who was awaiting imperial edict, and he was only at the ninth rank at most.

The Empress Dowager summoned Emperor Wu and criticized him for summoning a charlatan into the palace to treat him like a distinguished guest. If this spread to the outside world, the emperor's dignity would be greatly lost.

Episode 3

Emperor Wu went to Princess Pingyang’s Mansion to relax, and fell in love at first sight with the beautiful and gentle maid Wei Zifu in Pingyang Mansion. Gongyang, the eunuch beside Emperor Wu, was an informant arranged by Dou's group. Gongyang reported the matter to Prince Dou, and Prince Dou deliberately leaked it to Queen Gillian.

When he and Ganfu came to Princess Pingyang's mansion to report to Princess Pingyang the emperor's intention to accept Wei Zifu into the palace to serve him, Princess Pingyang told them in shock that just now, a group of people dressed in the palace rushed to the palace to serve him. In a carriage specially designed for the palace, Wei Zifu was picked up under the pretense of conveying the imperial edict.

Dongfang Shuo assured Emperor Wu that Wei Zifu must be hiding in the palace. Emperor Wu ordered the palace to be searched, and even the Changle Palace where the Empress Dowager lived was searched under the guise of visiting, but not even Wei Zifu was found. Emperor Wu angrily rebuked Dongfang Shuo for only bragging. Dongfang Shuo refused to give up and stepped up his investigation. Finally, he learned from the palace gate guarded by a daredevil that a palace sedan once left the palace together with Queen Gillian's sedan.

Dongfang Shuo had an idea and came up with a strategy of "taking medicine according to the prescription". Therefore, Wei Qing and Dongfang Shuo led a disguised "Hun mission" to the mansion of the Queen's mother, Mrs. Guantao, generously rescued Wei Zifu and temporarily hid her in Princess Pingyang's mansion.

The Empress Dowager had no choice but to ask Prince Dou to arrange for a close relative to replace the princess and marry the Huns.

Wei Zifu was temporarily out of danger, but she was also unwilling to enter the palace to be favored by the emperor, because she knew that it was also a dead end, because love allowed the petty queen to harm her at any time. Wei Qing and Ganfu agreed to let her match Dongfang Shuo. However, competing with the emperor for beauty is also a capital crime. Dongfang Shuo declined the proposal of marriage in pain.

Feeling humiliated, Wei Zifu and Wei Qing risked their lives to escape, but were caught up by Princess Pingyang. Princess Pingyang freed Wei Qing and her brother from slavery, and said sincerely that the emperor's harem also needed the assistance of virtuous women. As long as the harem was peaceful, it would indirectly help the aspiring emperor to revitalize the country. Wei Zifu was deeply moved.

Dongfang Shuo was emotionally frustrated. He understood that his wisdom could only be sold to the emperor's family and would be of no use.

Princess Pingyang told Emperor Wu that the matter ended here. Because our mother, the Queen Mother, has her privacy in the hands of others.

The Dou Group suffered a heavy setback. Taking advantage of his victory, Emperor Wu announced that Zhang Tang was a talented judge and ordered that he be promoted to court captain. Wei Qing was promoted to commander of the Royal Forest Army. The Dou Group firmly opposed it.

The Queen Mother looked at Sima Qian hesitantly, and Sima Qian proved on the spot that this was indeed the case. The Queen Mother said harshly, "Let Wang Xiu lead the troops to fight the Xiongnu once, and when he comes back, he will be granted the title of a marquis.

Qiu Gu took Liu Nan home and let Liu Nan know that Dongfang Shuo never dared to talk nonsense at home in an attempt to dissuade Liu Nan. A man's delusion about Dongfang Shuo. But God did not follow his wishes, and Liu Nan still missed Dongfang Shuo bitterly.

Qiankunzi, who had always wanted to use two boats, secretly visited Wang Xiu. Wang Xiu learned that he was here to persuade Dongfang Shuo to go to Huainan to seek help, and quickly reported it to the Queen Mother and Emperor Wu.

Episode 29

Emperor Wu met Qiankunzi, and Qiankunzi said that Dongfang Shuo's "Teaching Fa" was his own idea and respectfully presented it to Emperor Wu. With the strong cooperation of Wei Zifu, Sima Qian and others, Emperor Wu finally reinstated Dongfang Shuo to his post and used it for his own purposes.

Emperor Wu announced the "Favor-enhancing Law" in the court hall. Dongfang Shuo was stunned and speechless when he saw that his achievements had somehow become the emperor's wisdom. Emperor Wu wanted to implement the "favor-extending method" immediately, but Dongfang Shuo dissuaded him, saying that the time was not yet ripe. Emperor Wu refused to listen and ordered the whole country to implement it. Liu Jie of Huainan decided to unite with several other major vassal kings to rebel.

Only then did Emperor Wu feel that Dongfang Shuo's idea was correct. Suddenly, a shocking change occurred in the court. Emperor Wu wanted to lead a military expedition in person, but Dongfang Shuo tried his best to ridicule him in front of hundreds of officials. Emperor Wu was furious, and Dongfang Shuo was punished with a cane forty times, dismissed from his post and expelled from the palace.

When the news reached Huainan, Liu Jie sent a messenger to Chang'an secretly, and once again strongly invited Dongfang Shuo to Huainan to discuss important matters.

Episode 30

Qiankunzi reported to Wang Xiu, and the messenger and Dongfang Shuo were captured on the spot. Emperor Wu was furious and put Dongfang Shuo on death row. Jing Kui and Liu Nan broke into the prison at night and risked their lives to rescue Dongfang Shuo. Dongfang Shuo sneaked to Huainan overnight. Soon after, Liu Jie informed him that his wife Qiu Gu and brother-in-law Qiu Hu had all been beheaded in Chang'an by Emperor Wu. Dongfang Shuo fainted immediately.

In order to win over Dongfang Shuo, Liu Jie proposed to betroth his sister Liu Nan to Dongfang Shuo. Qiankunzi failed in every possible way and became even more resentful.

Emperor Wu sent an edict to the King of Huainan, asking Huainan to send 200,000 troops and horses to accompany Emperor Wu to the north to conquer the Xiongnu. Dongfang Shuo suggested obeying on the surface and acting accordingly after the troops arrived at Chang'an City. Liu Jie personally led an army of 200,000 to Chang'an. Dongfang Shuo asked Liu Jie to ask Jing Kui, the hero of Guanzhong, to provide internal response. Liu Nan took a copy of "Huainanzi" written by his father to contact Jing Kui, but was detained by Jing Kui and his wife. This was a move Dongfang Shuo arranged in advance to protect Liu Nan.
