He was good at both calligraphy and painting, but had a crafty and sinister personality which made him disliked by everyone. Li Lin-fu would bribe the palace eunuchs and concubines to tell him what the emperor liked, and then would immediately go prepare that thing for the emperor. The emperor was therefore very fond of Li Lin-fu, and trusted him unduly. One time, the minister Li Shr-jr offended Li Lin-fu. Li Lin-fu pretended not to care, and was in fact especially nice to the minister. Then on a day, he told Li Shr-jr about some gold that was hidden over in Hua Mountain, and encouraged him to suggest mining this gold to the emperor. Li Shr-jr being of an honest and upright disposition, believed that it was true, and immediately went and told the emperor. But when the emperor began to discuss this with Li Lin-fu, Li Lin-fu acted very frightened and said,Hua Mountain in the place where all of Your Majestys auspiciousaurora aregathered. If we were to mine that area, it could be very dangerous for you. Who is it that wants to harm you?”Today we can describe someone who is two-faced and always nice on the outside and yet is mean to people behind their backs as having Honey in the Mouth and Swords in the Stomach.【文化链接】“口蜜腹剑”的英文表达是“Judas kiss”，就是“犹大之吻
