Qingzhou people joke

The embarrassing king was Sima Yao, the Emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Because he told a woman that he ruined you and was suffocated by his concubine. This kind of death is not only embarrassing, but also cowardly.

First, joking after drinking.

Sima Yao is an alcoholic and can't live without wine. On one occasion, Sima Yao hosted a banquet in honor of the minister. Sima Yao was a little too happy to drink. He stood up, raised his glass and said, "Dear friends, tell me, how can I govern the country?" This is an opportunity for courtiers who love flattery. They all replied, "My master can run the country higher than Mount Tai and surpass the Five Mountains." Sima Yao was very useful, but it seemed that he was not satisfied. He smiled and inspired: "Can I compare with any ancient emperor?" Fortunately, Qingzhou secretariat was smart, aiming at the opportunity, and loudly replied: "Your majesty's literary talent is superb, unparalleled in the world, and unprecedented. Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu is only worthy to be your apprentice, and Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang can only look at your brain spoon and sigh. "

Sima Yao was overjoyed, and immediately ordered people to give Qingzhou a thousand acres of fertile land and a thousand silks and brocade. Hearing this, the ministers were annoyed that they didn't kiss up and delayed a large reward. Qingzhou secretariat listened to the emperor's words, but also flattered, quickly knelt down to give thanks. "Who knows, when Sima Yao saw this scene, he kept laughing:" Ai Qing doesn't have to give thanks. I was joking just now. Although I drank too much, my heart was as clear as a mirror. Today, ministers gathered together, and Ai Qing praised me with lies, so I returned Ai Qing with lies. It's called reciprocity. Ai Qing and I had a good time.

Second, the joke is dead.

In September of the 21st year of Taiyuan (396), Sima Yao was drinking with Zhang Guiren in the palace during the summer vacation. He is already a little drunk, so he wants Zhang Guiren to have a drink with him. Zhang Guiren, full of wine and food, declined politely. Sima Yao launched a drunken madness, half-truth, half-falsehood: "You were made a nobleman because of your beauty. Now you are nearly 30 years old, and your beauty is not as good as before. It is a waste to occupy a noble position. Tomorrow I will abolish you and choose a new one. " Sima Yao said a joke to Zhang Guiren, but it came as a bolt from the blue. Zhang Guiren has never been so reprimanded and humiliated since he was favored. She was jealous again, so she let the valet cover Sima Yao's face with a quilt that night and suffocated Sima Yao.

Poor Sima Yao died in embarrassment, coward. Facts have proved that people should not talk big. Talking big not only offends people, but also kills them!
