However, he said that Han Xin was captured by Gaozu and demoted to the Marquis of Huaiyin, thinking that his military achievements were very high, and he was full of claims about the king's inheritance and descendants. Unexpectedly, Gaozu was jealous of his talent and seized his country, so he inevitably resented and was often depressed. And because he has always been the king, Zhou Bo, Guan Bao and so on are all under him, and now he is reduced to a liege, and every time he meets the court, he is in the same class with everyone, and his heart is particularly unwilling, so he often calls himself sick and does not go to court.

One day of sitting and bored, he went out for recreation in a light car. Along the way, passing through the door of the house of Wuyang Hou Fan, he didn't want to go in, but Fan Hao heard about it, and hurriedly came out to greet him, and he was very respectful, still as when he was in the army before, he bowed down to Han Xin and said to Han Xin: "It's a great honor for the king to come to the minister's house!" Han Xin felt embarrassed, so he had to get out of the car and sit down at the entrance of the salute, and after a short conversation, he resigned. Fan Xugong sent him out of the door and waited for Han Xin to board the car before returning in. Han Xin couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Am I in the company of Fan Xu?" As he spoke, he hurried back to the palace. From then on, he lived in a simple place, so as not to bump into the generals and be troubled.

One day, Gaozu had nothing to do, and Han Xin commented on the talents of the generals, each with its own superiority. Gao Zu asked, "How many troops can I lead?" Han Xin replied, "Your Majesty can lead 100,000 soldiers." Gao Zu asked, "How much can you receive?" Han Xin replied, "The more ministers, the better." After hearing this, Gao Zu smiled and said, "Since the more the merrier, why was it captured by me?" Han Xin said: "Although Your Majesty is not good at imperial soldiers, he is good at imperial generals, so this minister was captured by Your Majesty." Besides, His Majesty's actions are directly God-granted, not human-powered. Gao Zu was speechless when he heard this.

When Chen Feng rebelled, Gaozu led his troops to attack him, and all the generals marched with the army, but Duhan Xin refused to follow the line because of illness. After more than a month, suddenly Han Xinsheren Luan said that he had offended Han Xin because of something. Han Xin detained him with the intention of killing him. Luan said that he was worried in his heart, he knew that Han Xinsu was jealous of the court, at this time, it was better to say that he had conspired against Chen Xuan, and the court would definitely believe that he would be charged, so that I could not only avoid death, but also win wealth.

Luan said that he was determined, so he secretly wrote a book and sent someone to hand it over to his brother, which said that a few years ago, Chen Feng was ordered to be the acting prime minister, and he came to say goodbye to Han Xin before he went. Han Xinping retreated left and right to meet each other, and then held Chen Xuan's hand and synchronized the atrium with it. Han Xintian sighed: "You are my confidant, I have a word of advice." Chen Feng said: "I am willing to listen to the general's orders." Han Xin said: "The land that I am guarding is the gathering of elite soldiers from all over the world, and my position is very important. Although the Lord is very fond of the foot on weekdays, but if someone says that the foot is plotting rebellion, although he may not believe it for the first time, the Lord will be suspicious of it for the second time, and if it reaches the third time, the Lord will definitely be angry and personally lead the army to recruit. At this time, Guanzhong is empty, and I can get the world from it in order to get things from it. Chen Feng knew Han Xin's skills, and after hearing this, he believed it, and replied: "Be respectful of your life." In addition, the two spoke a lot, and Chen Feng got up to say goodbye. Han Xin sent out the door and told him again and again before breaking up. Now that Chen Feng really rebelled, and the lord personally conquered, Han Xin deliberately said that he was sick and refused to obey, but secretly sent someone to Chen Feng to communicate, telling him to try his best to resist the enemy, and immediately help him. Han Xin sent the envoys, so he conspired with his cronies and retainers, wanting to take advantage of the night to deceive the edict, pardon the criminals and slaves, give weapons, and personally lead the attack on Empress Lu and the crown prince. Luan said that after learning about this, he forcibly admonished him, and Han Xin was furious and detained him, so he sent his younger brother to write on his behalf. The above plots are all fabricated by Luan, how could Han Xin let him know if he really wanted to rebel?

After Lu Hou got the book, he was very anxious, and immediately summoned Xiao He to discuss countermeasures. Xiao He came to see Han Xin by asking the name of the illness, but Han Xin was inconvenient to refuse, so he had no choice but to go out of the room to greet him. Xiao He shook hands and said: "Gaozu has destroyed Chen Xuan, and now he has sent an envoy to report the victory, and the courtiers are all joining to congratulate him. But why don't Du men come out? Han Xin was not sick, but he was only a little affectionate, so he had to go with him.

He Bilu said: "The ministers are out, and the Marquis of Huaiyin has something to discuss when he enters the palace. When Han Xinfang entered the temple, forty or fifty warriors immediately restrained him. Han Xin said: "What is the crime of the minister? Empress Lu said: "The emperor worshiped you as a general, and then named you the king of Qi, changed the title of the king of Chu, heard that you rebelled and went out to Yunmeng, and after being captured, he remembered that you had no merit and did not punish you, and also named you the Marquis of Huaiyin, and the emperor did not lose you." Why did you join Chen Feng to rebel? Han Xin asked, "What is the truth?" Lu Hou said: "Your servant Luan said that the change is here." Han Xin said: "This Luan is lying and wants Niangniang to investigate it carefully." Lu Hou said: "The emperor broke Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan has confessed, you are still strong-mouthed!" Han Xin sighed and said: "Regret doesn't need to be tricked, but it was deceived by the little woman, isn't it heavenly?" Then he said: "When Gaozu named me king, he said: Han Xin is immortal when he sees the sky, he does not die when he sees the earth, he does not die, he does not die when he sees gold, he does not die, he sees iron immortal. Mother can't kill me. Lu Hou said: "What's so difficult about this? If I let you not see the heaven and earth, won't you just die? So he asked someone to surround Han Xin's cloth, and then tied him to the bell room of the Changle Hall of Weiyang Palace, and stabbed him to death with sharpened bamboo. Empress Lu then razed the three tribes. It is the day when the earth is dark, the sun and the moon are bright, the gloomy clouds and black fog do not disperse day and night, the people of Chang'an are all sighing, and the merchants are all sad, and the descendants have poems and sighs:

"If the nine plains settle their grievances,

Don't hate the high emperor and hate Kuaitong (Kuaitong is Kuaiche. Because of the avoidance of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's name). ”

Han Xin sighed before he died: "I regret that I don't need to use the plan", I don't know if I regret that I didn't gamble at that time? Or do you deliberately show that you have a chance to be anti but you don't? But Empress Lu doesn't think about these! Who told you not to rebel at that time?

The official has read the previous article, and should know the story of Xiao He Yuexia chasing Han Xin, and how important it was to worship on the altar at that time. Even if it weren't for Han Xin's resourcefulness to besiege King Xiang, Gaozu might not be able to win the world suddenly. But Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, who strongly recommended Han Xin in the past, now tricked him into the palace and executed him, isn't it a sigh? The most painful thing is that Han Xin was executed, and his father's mother's wife was also killed by an ancient brain, which shows how fierce Empress Lu is, and how unkind Xiao He is! The so-called success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He.

After Lu Hou beheaded Han Xin, he wrote a table to play Gaozu, and said:

In September of the 11th year of the Han Dynasty, Queen Lu Pheasant said: Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, ate Han Lu, did not abide by the way of his ministers, and had different aspirations. Secretly from Xiao Hezhi asked to behead Weiyang, Yiqi three tribes reported to Handan, and told the Northern Expedition, so that Chen Feng was discouraged, traitorous and soulless, and the heavenly soldiers came, and the concubines were overjoyed!

Gao Zu was very happy to read the table, and even remembered Han Xin's merits, his heart was very sad, so he said to the generals left and right: "When Han Xin returned to me, Xiao He repeatedly recommended and worshiped me as a general. I have been treated very well with food and clothing, how can I conspire against Chen Xuan? After killing him, I mourned it very much. After speaking, he burst into tears for a few lines, and he also cried left and right, so he spread Han Xin's head far and near, and everyone sighed.

Gaozu said that Luan had a meritorious service in denouncing Han Xin, so he named him the Marquis of Shenyang. He asked Empress Lu what Han Xin's words were when he was dying, and Empress Lu said Han Xin's words again. When Gaozu heard that Han Xin mentioned Kuaiche, he said: "This person is a debater of the Qi State, and it turns out that Han Xin's rebellion was instructed by him, which is really hateful." So he sent people to Qi, and it was rumored that Cao Shen quickly brought Kui Che to him. How dare Cao Shen disobey him, and strictly punish the county officials everywhere. Kuaiche had no way to escape, and was taken into Beijing by the officials, and Gaozu angrily reprimanded: "Do you dare to teach the Marquis of Huaiyin to rebel?" He replied straightforwardly: "The minister originally asked him to be independent, but unfortunately the vertical son didn't listen to me, so he was punished by the clan, if Han Xin had listened to me, maybe he would be the emperor now." Liu Bang was furious, drank the order to cook left and right, and shouted to the heavens. Gao Zu said: "You taught Han Xin to rebel, you sin Han Xin, you deserve to be cooked, what else is wrong?" Kui Che said: "The minister hears the dog barking Yao, isn't Yao benevolent?" But dogs only know the master, and if they are not the master, they bark. That is to say: when two people fight, the dog will definitely help its owner and bite the other, but the owner is not necessarily better than the other. When I was working in front of Han Xin's account, I only knew how to help Han Xin come up with ideas, where would I think of the king? If I had been under the king's tent at that time, I would naturally not have helped Han Xin with ideas, but would have thought about you, the king. Today, the sea is rough, there is no one who does not conspire for others, can Your Majesty cook them all? People don't cook all the food, they cook a minister alone, and the ministers are so wronged! Gao Zu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "You really know how to say!" I'll let you go." Then he ordered the left and right generals to release Kuaicher, and Kuaiche bowed out again, and still returned to the Qi country.

Kuaiche compared himself to a dog and Liu Bang to Emperor Yao, and of course Liu Bang was happy, so he let him go.

After Liu Bang heard that Han Xin died, Taishi Gong described it as "happy and pitiful". The joy is that the hidden dangers of the Han Dynasty are gone, and the pity is the credit and talent of Han Xin. People don't destroy the heavens and the earth for their own sake! It's not about grudges, it's all about survival.

So why did Xiao He harm Han Xin? Because Hanshin is like a bomb, it can be detonated at any time. Xiao He didn't dare to use his family to bet on whether Han Xin would rebel? So the dead Han Xin is a good Han Xin.

However, it is said that when Gaozu personally marched to Handan, he sent people to summon Peng Yue, the king of Liang, to bring troops to come. Peng Yue said that he was sick and could not come by himself, but he sent the general to Handan to meet him. Gao Zu was furious when he saw that Peng Yue was not there, and sent a messenger to reproach Peng Yue. Peng Yue was naturally frightened when he was blamed, so he wanted to see Gao Zu and thank him in person. General Liang admonished: "No, the king didn't go before, but now he sees the responsibility and goes, he will be captured, so it's better to take advantage of this incident." Peng Yue thought that he was very worried, and Han Xin's capture was an example. So it doesn't work. But when he was persuaded to rebel, he refused.

Who knew that Peng Yue's servant had committed a crime because of the crime, and he was afraid that he would be punished, so he fled to Luoyang to write to Gaozu, saying that King Liang and Hu Yu had rebelled. Gaozu was quiet, and sent an envoy to Liang, accompanied by many warriors. Peng Yue took the edict from himself, and the envoy took advantage of his unpreparedness and ordered the warriors to take down Peng Yue and Hu Xuan, and sent them to Luoyang to be imprisoned, and handed over to Wang Tian, the court captain, for trial.

Wang Tiankai was ordered to try out the truth, but Peng Yue did not listen, and Peng Yue was not guilty according to the law. Wang Tian played according to the truth. Gaozu knew that Peng Yue was wronged and couldn't bear to kill him, so he issued an edict to exempt Peng Yue from being a concubine and move him to live in Qingyi County, Shuzhong, and sent officials to escort him to the line on the same day. Although Peng Yue was wronged, he still had his life, so he went on the road with the officials.

One day to Zhengdi, just after Lu Hou set off from Chang'an to Luoyang. When the two met, Peng Yue saw that it was Empress Lu, and immediately burst into tears to visit the side of the road, preparing Chen to be innocent from the beginning to the end, and begging Empress Lu to intercede with Gaozu and put him back in his hometown of Changyi. When Empress Lu heard this, he promised, and comforted him with good words, and immediately ordered Peng Yue to go to Luoyang with him. Peng Yue thanked Lu with tears in his eyes, and happily followed her forward.

After arriving in Luoyang a few days later, Lu Hou saw Gao Zu and said: "Peng Yue is a strong man, and now His Majesty has ordered him to live in Shu, which is tantamount to raising tigers." It's better to take advantage of this time to punish him. Gaozu handed him over to Wang Tiankai, the court commander, for interrogation, and Wang Tiankai catered to Empress Lu's intentions, saying that the crime should be punished by the clan, and Gaozu was allowed to play. At this time, Peng Yue was looking forward to the edict coming down to pardon him and return to the city. Who knew that the edict said that he was plotting to react to the punishment of the clan. Only then did I know that I was sold by Empress Lu.

Peng Yue said when he got up that he was old, and when he fought with Liu Bang for the first time, he did not follow Liu Bang to the west, and once became a lone army, and the battle of Pengcheng failed, and Peng Yue did not go to Liu Bangxi, and he was adrift for half his life, but he just wanted to settle down. Sent to Shu, a year old, two have no military power, how can it be a disaster?

The first time he helped Liu Bang fight Changyi, the second time he helped Tian Rong beat Xiang Yu, he never thought too much, and always agreed, as Peng Yue, a native of Shandong, showed his boldness more than 2,000 years ago.

Peng Yue, like Han Xin, was a famous general in the early Han Dynasty, Han Xin was unparalleled, Peng Yue had advanced guerrilla tactics practice, and made theories for later generations of guerrilla tactics, and its light flashed for more than 2,000 years. However, compared to Han Xin's fame, it is always much worse.

In March, Gaozu ordered Peng Yue to be killed and his three clans were killed, and his flesh was chopped up and distributed to the princes, and his head was hung in Luoyang City to show the public, and the samurai were sent to guard it, and issued an edict: "If anyone dares to watch it, he will be arrested." A few days later, I saw a person dressed in plain clothes, with the sacrifice to Peng Yue's head, kneeling on the ground to arrange the offerings, and wept loudly after worshipping, very sad. The samurai rushed forward and grabbed him, and asked for his name, which was Luan Bu.

It turned out that Luan Bu was originally from Liang State, his family was very poor, and he was exiled to Qi State, where he worked as a bartender in a hotel, and then became friendly with Peng Yue. Later, Peng Yue entered Juye as a thief, Luan Bu was robbed and sold to Yandi as a slave, but the head of the family was killed, and Luan Bu avenged the head of his family and killed the enemy. At this time, Zang Di was a Yan general, and after hearing about this, he felt that Luan Bu was very righteous, so he was promoted to a captain, and when Zang Di was the king of Yan, he used Luan Bu as a general.

Xiang Yu was destroyed, and Zang Tu rebelled. Gaozu sought to level the Yan land, and Luan Bu was defeated and taken captive. Peng Yue asked Gaozu for ransom Luanbu, and Gaozu allowed it. Peng Yue then redeemed Luan Bu and thought that he was a doctor of Liang Guo. This time, Luan Bu was ordered by Peng Yue to envoy to Qi State, and when he returned, he heard that Peng Yue was dead, and there was an edict prohibiting people from watching. Luan Bu was grateful for Peng Yue's personal kindness, and he was saddened that he had died unjustly, so he came to Luoyang regardless of his own safety, and let him be arrested after crying and sacrificing.

The samurai captured Luan Bu and heard about Gaozu. Gao Zu ordered Luan Bu to be brought in and scolded: "Peng Yue plotted against him, I have an edict to prohibit people from watching, you dare to cry and sacrifice, obviously rebelling with Peng Yue." "Say and drink, let it be cooked left and right. The left and right agreed, and they all hugged the general Luan Bu and lifted it, and was about to throw it into the soup kettle. Luan Bu had already put life and death out of the way, and he was not afraid at all, but because he had not vented his grievances, he looked back at Gaozu and said: "The minister has a word, and he is willing to die after he finishes speaking." ”

Gao Zu said: "If you have anything to say, you can say it. Luan Bu was put down left and right, and Luan Bu said loudly: "Your Majesty has been trapped between Xingyang and Chenggao since Pengcheng was defeated. At this time, King Peng was Chu then Han Po, and for Han Chu Po, Chu Po, and the success or failure of Chu and Han came from King Peng. If there is no King Peng in the siege of the wall, the Xiang clan will not perish. And the world has decided that King Peng will be enthroned, and he also wants to pass it on to all eternity. Now His Majesty conscripted troops in Liang, King Peng could not travel in person due to illness, His Majesty was suspected of rebellion and exterminated, and the ministers were afraid that everyone was chilled from then on. Now that King Peng is dead, it is better to live than to die, please cook it immediately. Luan Brown Lang said it again, exhaling for Peng Yue after his death, feeling refreshed, and not waiting for the samurai to do it, he picked up his clothes and jumped towards the soup kettle. Gaozu listened to what Luan Bu said well, and saw his generosity and righteousness, he couldn't help but be moved to pardon Luan Bu in his heart, and worship him as the captain, and later awarded Yu Hou with military merits, as the king of Yan. Later, Yan and Qi were all established as a society, called Luan Commune, which is a later matter.

After killing Peng Yue, Gaozu divided the land into two kingdoms. Lizi Liu Hui is the king of Liang, and Liu You is the king of Huaiyang.
