Do Dong Fangshuo and Nian Nujiao in The Big Man's Son of Heaven really exist in history?

Dong Fangshuo-a saint-like master in the world, a funny king who laughs at and admonishes things.

It is appropriate to use the word "Daxian" to summarize Dong Fangshuo in The Son of Heaven. In the play, he is dressed as a reclusive Taoist, while Chen has his own sage demeanor. Dong Fangshuo gives people the feeling that ordinary people in the world are superior. "Only measure three hexagrams a day" and "measure Chinese characters in advance" are the principles of Dong Fangshuo's character measurement. Surprisingly, any ordinary person is hidden by his mouth, which is an eye-opener. There are many strange men and women who have known each other for 500 years in history, and most of them play an important role around emperors of various dynasties. Dong Fangshuo is no exception. In the political career of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he undoubtedly played a decisive role. A trick of "if you want to take it, you must give it first" helped Liu Che seize the military power, and a trick of "black Hu Taoxin" helped Liu Che break the Huainan army and solve the siege of Chang 'an.

Another characteristic of Dong Fangshuo is his humor, and he is known as the "King of Funny" in history. History books say that he recommended himself to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty with a "funny letter" (different from that in TV series). Every time he remonstrated with the emperor, he often did not tell the truth directly, but indirectly pointed out in ironic language, which made the emperor laugh and accept his remonstration. Chen plays a perfect man with both grace and wisdom and humor. No wonder the great beauty doesn't want the emperor! ! The history of Dong Fangshuo exists, but Nian Nujiao existed in the Tang Dynasty! Of course not!
