1. The emperor asked Gulliver to learn the language of Lilliput and provided him with enough food. After various tests and several friendly expressions, Gulliver finally gained his freedom. With his help, the Lilliputians easily defeated the neighboring fleets. As a result, he received a generous reward from the emperor, but he offended the emperor because he refused to continue to destroy neighboring countries.
2. Once there was a fire in the palace, he used urine to put out the fire in the queen's palace, which made the queen and some ministers dissatisfied. The Minister of the Navy was jealous because his wife was dating Gulliver, and the Minister of Finance believed that Gulliver ate too much and in the long run, the treasury would be empty.
The hidden dissatisfaction in the emperor's heart was aroused by the queen and ministers, and finally secretly decided to blind Gulliver's eyes, and then slowly reduce his food supply until he starved to death.
3. During Gulliver's careful observation while staying on the island, he saw that there were many increasingly sharp contradictions in the Lilliputian country. Among them, the internal contradiction was whether to wear shoes with high heels or low heels, so he formed The high-heeled party and the low-heeled party, and in order to gain more support, the prince had to wear one high-heeled shoe and one low-heeled shoe.
The external conflict is due to the way the eggs are shot. One party believes that the big end should be shot first, while the other party believes that the small end should be shot first, forming the Big End Sect and the Little End Sect, which has led to years of fighting.
Extended information:
"Gulliver's Travels" is a long travel satire created by the British writer Jonathan Swift (also translated as Jonathan Swift) Novel, first published in 1726.
The work uses the tone of Captain Rimmel Gulliver (also translated as Lemuel Gulliver) to narrate his experience of traveling around four countries. Through Gulliver's adventures in Lilliput, Brobdingnag, the Flying Island Kingdom, and the Houyhnhnms Kingdom, it reflects the corruption and sin of the British ruling class in the first half of the 18th century.
It also expresses the author's thoughts in a relatively perfect artistic form. The author used rich satirical techniques and fictional fantasies to write absurd and bizarre plots, which profoundly reflected the situation in the British Parliament at that time. The meaningless partisan struggle, the stupidity, decadence and profit-seeking of the ruling group exposed and criticized the brutality of the colonial war.
