Half a month after Fan Hao went north, Liu Bang ordered Guan Ying and Li Shang to regain some cities near Dongyuan and Qu Wei that had been recaptured by Chen Xuan's army, while Liu Bang and Zhang Liang and Chen Ping inspected the recovered cities every day, pacified the local people, and reset the official and civilian equipment.

On this day, there were sporadic snowflakes, and Liu Bang took Zhang Liang and Chen Ping to inspect Lingshou, a city west of Dongyuan, in the snow. Zhang Liang has always been slightly ill, especially in the cold and snowy days, his body is particularly weak, although there is a stove in the spacious chariot, Zhang Liang still clutches the corners of his clothes and shiveres and can't say a word, only coughing continuously. Liu Bang, who was sitting opposite Zhang Liang, saw it in his eyes, and said to Zhang Liang with a little apology, "The prince has always been in bad health, and it snowed heavily today, so I can't help but be a strong man." Zhang Liang's face was already coughing red, and he bowed his hand slightly to Liu Bang's smiling face and coughed, "Minister...... The minister has not practiced Bigu Gong for a long time, and the heavenly real people do not protect the grass minister's cheap body, and the grass minister's life in this life is afraid to rely on the heavenly real person. Liu Bang smiled warmly with his hands close to the stove, and Chen Ping, who was enjoying the snow outside the car, turned around and smiled at Zhang Liang, "Zhang Gonghe, take care of your body, the emperor's country is now settled, Zhang Gong can appreciate the emperor's picturesque rivers and mountains." "Yes, yes." Liu Bang also smiled and said, "Oh, Chen Gong's words are also good." Zhang Liang half coughed and got off, but a cold wind hit outside the car, which made Zhang Liang shiver and tug up the thick cloak.

"Here you go." When Zhang Liang covered his whole body, Liu Bang had already taken off his black robe and handed it to Zhang Liang, "A few days ago, I captured Dongyuan, and the prince also had merits. With that, he handed it forward again. Zhang Liang was deeply frightened and immediately solemnly thanked Liu Bang, "This time in Dongyuan City, the real meritorious person is the first to recommend Chen Gong, and he doesn't dare to take credit." The minister knows that this robe has been with His Majesty for many years, and His Majesty likes it very much, and he does not dare to take love. Zhang Liang wanted to get up and really excuse himself. Chen Ping smiled and took off his robe and stuffed it to Zhang Liang, and said to Liu Bang, "Your Majesty, it's better to give this kindness to Caochen, okay?" Your Majesty should protect the dragon's body. Zhang Liang refused to accept Chen Ping's robe in every possible way, but Chen Ping smiled and forced it into Zhang Liang's hand, and said, "Zhang Gong Mo refused, do you think my robe smells?" Zhang Liang hurriedly waved his hand, but for a while he was speechless, "No, no, Chen Gong is serious." "Hehe-" Liu Bang laughed loudly, "Chen Ping, he is the best at being a man, he is accurate, and the ovary will be a hundred times more energetic when he puts on Chen Ping's robe." Zhang Liang nodded to Chen Ping a little embarrassed and accepted it.

"This time I went down to Dongyuan, Chen Gong almost made me a villain." Liu Bang smiled at Chen Ping. Chen Ping's face immediately became solemn, and he gave Liu Bang a deep look, "The ministers are not deeply scheming, Your Majesty is scheming." "Originally, Chen Ping's plan to Liu Bang to capture Dongyuan City was to load a few carts of Dongyuan soldiers' ancestral bones and force them out of the city to face the battle, Liu Bang felt that it was very inappropriate to dig up the graves of his ancestors, so he ordered people to scrape and carve trees into bones and connect them together, and paint them with white paint, which can be fake and real from a distance.

After inspecting Lingshou for three days and pacifying the people, he flew to Handan City in one day. Half a day after Fang Hui, Liu Bang felt physically exhausted from months of conquest and rested in the palace of King Zhao. In the middle of the night, a sharp knock on the door woke up the sleeping Liu Bang, and when he opened the door, he looked at Zhao Xiang Zhou Chang, who looked extremely nervous and panicked, Liu Bang looked up at the night, pulled his robe up casually, and asked Zhou Chang in a daze with a yawn, "Knock on the door in the middle of the night, what's the matter?" Zhou Chang looked solemn and serious, and hurriedly took out a roll of bamboo slips from the big sleeves of his wide robe and handed it to Liu Bangdao in a hurry and trembling, "Chang'an is urgent, Han Xin is dead." Liu Bang suddenly woke up, a pair of sharp old eyes suddenly lit up and stared at Zhou Chang, speechless for a long time, the complex and strange color in Liu Bang's old eyes made Zhou Chang never see it. Suddenly, Liu Bangruo woke up and opened the bamboo slip in three steps and turned into two steps in front of a few cases, moved the oil lamp on the case to the side of the bamboo slip, buried his head and approached the bamboo slip to look closely, but saw a line of big characters on the bamboo slip: Concubine Lu Pheasant Qiyu Your Majesty, Huaiyin Marquis Lian Chen Feng rebelled against Guanzhong, the concubine and the prince were in danger, and Xiao He helped the concubine to raze the Huaiyin three clans.

Liu Bang squinted and thought for a while, then buried his head in staring at the bamboo slips on the case and looked at them repeatedly, and asked Zhou Chang quietly, "Who is the messenger?" ”

"The Tomb of the Marquis of Anguo."

"Tell me about it."

In a moment, the royal tomb came to Liu Bang's dormitory. Liu Bang hurriedly held the Wang Ling who wanted to make a big salute, grabbed his hand and sat down in the banquet, under the small green and yellow oil lamp, Liu Bang could see Liu Bang with a serious and solemn expression and asked Wang Ling, "The prince and the prince quickly say, what a big event happened in Chang'an, talk about it in detail and listen to me." Wang Ling arched his hand slightly, leaned close to Liu Bang, and said to Liu Bang with a mysterious face, "Huaiyin Marquis Han Xin reversed in Guanzhong. At this time, Zhou Chang personally brought the tea, but Liu Bang personally poured a cup of tea and gave it to Wang Ling, "Drink it quickly, just talk after drinking." Wang Ling gently took the tea and drank it. The small green and yellow oil lamp faintly shone on Liu Bang's bedroom, and the three monarchs and ministers sat at their own seats with solemn expressions, and Wang Ling told Liu Bang the process of Han Xin's rebellion against Guanzhong.

Originally......

Han Xin's rebellion against Guanzhong involved Chen Xuan, thinking that back then, Chen Xuan was awarded by Liu Bang as the county guard of Julu, because he witnessed Han Xin's ability to lead troops, especially Han Xin's achievements in helping Liu Bang's Northern Expedition and helping him to exterminate Xiang Yu when Chu and Han fought for the world, so he admired Han Xin and went to Huaiyin Marquis Mansion to say goodbye to him. When the Marquis of Huaiyin saw Chen Feng coming, he immediately put down the scroll in his hand and went out to greet him, and after holding Chen Feng's hand and greeting him for a while, he talked about leading troops to fight, Han Xin talked about Le Yi, Li Mu and others who were not trusted during the Warring States Period, and they were all leading troops to guard the country but were not trusted by the monarch, Chen Feng nodded in agreement with Han Xinzhi. Suddenly, Han Xin waved away the entourage around him with one hand, Chen Feng saw Han Xin like this but also got the understanding from Han Xin's eyes, so he also waved away the servants who came with him with one hand, Han Xin pulled Chen Feng into the inner courtyard and stood under a tree of roses, looked up to the sky and sighed and shook Chen Feng's hand and asked, "Can you tell the truth to the Jun family?" I have something to say to the Jun family. "I would like to follow the general's teachings." Chen Xuan said with a respectful face. Han Xin approached Chen Feng and whispered, "Duke Chen's residence is a place where the world's elite soldiers gather, and Duke Chen is a minister of His Majesty's cronies. or if someone rebels with the emperor, the emperor will not believe it; If someone says that Chen Gong is rebellious, the emperor may be skeptical; If someone else said that Chen Gong would rebel, the emperor would believe it, and he was angry and raised troops to quell Chen Gong. Han Xin saw that Chen Xuan's face was already a little worried, so he took the opportunity to persuade Chen Xuan, "Chen Gong only takes care of the soldiers under his command, and if he is willing to raise troops from Guanzhong for Chen Gong, the world can also do it." Chen Feng hesitated for a few moments and thought for a long time: no matter whether what Han Xin said can be fulfilled or not, it is better to agree first. Of course, Chen Feng didn't want Han Xinzhi's words to come true, but the world is unpredictable, the emperor is suspicious, Chen Feng is not sure that there will be no ministers around the emperor, if he is really forced to rebel, it is also good for Han Xin, who is capable and super strong in Guanzhong, to do internal response. After a few thoughtful thoughts, Chen Feng made plans for the future road, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he immediately gave up his hand to Han Xin, "I would like to follow the general's advice, and pray that there will be no day when the emperor will rebel." Han Xin stroked his back and smiled.
