Origin Story
汉武帝时期，一位大臣因犯错被处死，大臣的家人悲痛欲绝。而汉武帝却为了维护法律的尊严，不愿徇私枉法。此事引起朝野议论纷纷，有人认为汉武帝过于铁石心肠。这时，东方朔站出来为汉武帝辩解，他说：‘陛下此举，实乃为天下苍生计，赏罚分明，各得其所，这才是国之大幸啊！’汉武帝听后深思熟虑，最终认可了东方朔的观点。从此以后，汉武帝更加注重公平公正，赏罚分明，使国家更加繁荣昌盛。
During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, a minister was executed for a crime, and his family was distraught. Emperor Wu, however, maintained the dignity of the law, refusing to show favoritism. This caused considerable debate, with some criticizing Emperor Wu's harshness. Then Dongfang Shuo stepped forward, defending Emperor Wu, stating, “Your Majesty's actions serve the people. Rewards and punishments are clearly defined, and justice is served. This is a great fortune for the nation!” After reflecting on this, Emperor Wu accepted Dongfang Shuo's reasoning. From then on, Emperor Wu placed an even stronger emphasis on fairness and justice, clearly defining rewards and punishments, thus leading to the nation's prosperity.
