What interesting events did Gulliver encounter in Lilliput?

1. The emperor asked Gulliver to learn the language of Lilliput and provide him with enough food. After various investigations and several friendly conversations, Gulliver was finally free. With his help, Lilliput easily defeated the fleet of neighboring countries. He got a generous reward from the emperor, but he offended the emperor by refusing to continue to destroy neighboring countries.

Once there was a fire in the palace, he doused the fire in the queen's bedroom with urine, which attracted the dissatisfaction of the queen and some ministers. The secretary of the navy is jealous of his wife's association with Gulliver, while the finance minister thinks Gulliver eats too much, which will lead to an empty treasury in the long run.

The emperor's hidden dissatisfaction was aroused by the queen and ministers. Finally, he secretly decided to blind Gulliver's eyes and then slowly reduce his food supply until he starved to death.

3. During Gulliver's stay on the island, he observed in detail that there are many increasingly sharp contradictions in the villain countries, among which the internal contradiction is whether to wear high-heeled shoes or low-heeled shoes, thus forming a high-heeled party and a low-heeled party, and the prince has to wear high-heeled shoes and low-heeled shoes in order to win more support.

The external contradiction is because of the way eggs are played. One side thinks that the big head should be hit first, and the other side thinks that the small head should be hit first, forming a big-end faction and a small-end faction, which led to years of war.

Extended data:

Gulliver's Travels is a satirical novel written by British writer jonathan swift (also translated by jonathan swift), which was first published in 1726.

The work narrates the experience of traveling around four countries in the tone of Captain Riemel Gulliver (also translated as Lemuel Gulliver). Gulliver's adventures in Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Feidao and Hui Hui reflect the corruption and evil of the British ruling class in the first half of the18th century.

He also expressed the author's ideas in a more perfect artistic form. The author wrote fantastic plots with rich satire and fictional fantasy, which profoundly reflected the meaningless partisan struggle in the British Parliament at that time, the fatuity and corruption of the ruling group, and exposed and criticized the cruelty and violence of the colonial war.
