The king of the Eastern Jin Dynasty invited
him many times to serve as an official in the central government. After
refusing several times, one day he said to the king
My health is not good and I cannot bear too
much pressure. I must go to the countryside to rest my body.
He took his wife and son and moved to a

His friends admired his bravery.

高臥東山(He lives in seclusion on Dongshan
Mountain)
中國的晉王朝有一個著名的宰相，他的名字是謝安。
他被後世稱為中國歷史最完美的男人。
歷史書上記載過一個關於他的故事。
他出身於一個著名的家族，他的家族中有很多人是當時著名的官員。
他從年輕時就非常的聰明並且工作能力很強，但是他不喜歡政治，所以他長大後他一直待在家裡。
東晉王朝的國王多次邀請他到中央政府內擔任官員，他拒絕了國王幾次後，有一天他對國王說。
我的身體不好，我不能夠承擔太大的壓力，我需要到鄉下去調養身體。
他就帶著他的妻子與兒子一起搬到距離首都大約.350公里的一座山上。
這座山的名字叫做(東山)。
搬到這個地方後，他的心情每天都非常的好，他常常跟他的好朋友們一起寫詩寫文章，一起喝酒與開心的聊天，一起去打獵與捕魚。
他也會跟自己的朋友們到海邊玩。
有好幾次他與他的好朋友們一起搭船出海時遇到很大的風浪，他的朋友們都驚慌的臉色發白，但是只有他的表情非常的平靜。
他的朋友們都很佩服他的膽識。
他有時候也會自己一個人去山上徒步。他會到各個不同的山上去遊歷。
他會在這些陌生的山賞找一個山洞然後在山洞中靜坐。他會慢慢的走在這些山上欣賞山上不同季節的美景。
這句成語的意思被用來形容一個人隱居在山上。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你常常跟你的好朋友們一起去那邊玩呢?你會一個人出去旅行嗎?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
