Liu Bang escaped death and ordered Xiahou to break off the queen to prevent the Xiongnu from sneaking attack.

When they arrived at Heijo, reinforcements arrived. Seeing that the Han army was growing in number, Mao Dun knew that there was no oil or water to be harvested, so he led the army back to the prairie.

Seeing that the Huns had retreated, Liu Bang also retreated, and when he arrived in Guangwu, he immediately released Liu Jing who was detained. Liu Bang personally untied the heavy shackles on Liu Jing's body, and looked at Liu Jing's unkempt face, Liu Bang apologized in his heart: If I had listened to this old man's words, I would not have been humiliated by the defeated army!

In order to appease Liu Jing, Liu Bang said: I don't listen to the public and invite this defeat, I have already killed all the messengers who lied about the military situation! In order to make up for my mistakes, I gave Aiqing the Marquis of Guannei, increased the number of households by 2,000, and named the Marquis of Jianxin, Aiqing don't blame me!

The minister doesn't dare, the minister doesn't dare! Liu Jing crawled on the ground, busy thanking.

Liu Jing jumped from Langzhong to Guanneihou, less than a year, and did not rely on political achievements, only with two admonitions to rise to the top, if there is a myth about being an official, it should undoubtedly be regarded as Liu Jing's share, you know, many people work hard and sweat hard, and they may not be able to get into this position for a lifetime.

Liu Jing struck while the iron was hot and presented Liu Bang with three strategies to deal with the Xiongnu for him to choose from. In fact, it is said that there are three options, and two are nonsense, just to take care of the leader's face, and deliberately make it out for him to cut, so that the leadership level is high!

Liu Jing is well versed in the way of being an official, and people like him who have obtained official positions, so far, there is only one and no other branches, so he naturally has to be more cautious. Among the three strategies he gave Liu Bang, one was to send troops to end the Huns' lair, this strategy, of course, was vetoed by Liu Bang without hesitation, with the current strength of the Han Dynasty, it would be thankful if he didn't come to end his lair, and he also sent troops to conscript, how could it be? The second is to pay tribute to the Xiongnu. To be honest, this article is not impossible to consider, Yang Huaxia called Yidi a minister, and some people did so, such as Shi Jingjiao of the Later Jin Dynasty who called the Khitan emperor. But in Liu Bang's era, this was almost impossible to happen, although the battle was lost, but it was not so cheap!

After the first two were vetoed, only the third one was left to choose, which was also Liu Jing's real strategy, and it was also the first basic foreign policy of the Han Dynasty - harmony, for example, the harmony policy is equivalent to the current five principles of peaceful coexistence.

So, what are the benefits of adopting a pro-peace policy?

For this problem, Liu Jing explained it like this: marry the princess to the Xiongnu Shan Yu, the Xiongnu Shan Yu hindered the face of the Han Dynasty, and the princess will be the princess, if the princess gave birth to a son, Shan Yu will hinder the face of the Han Dynasty, and set up the son as Shan Yu, then the son in the future will be the emperor's His Majesty, your grandson and other relatives, and His Majesty will send a Taoist to teach him to learn cultural etiquette knowledge, he will be able to recognize the shame of robbery, filial piety and glory. In the future, if the Han and Hungarians communicate with each other, there will be no more wars.

Liu Jing's words, how can you listen to it, Li is indeed such a reason! But after careful analysis, it is wrong. Who said that the princess would definitely be able to be made a princess? Who said she would have a son? Can a son be established as a single person? If you become a single Yu, you will definitely study well, make progress every day, and honor your elders?

Liu Bang is not a fool, he knows that Liu Jing has done his best to say that he has pinned all his hopes on the policy of harmony, which is not reliable, but at present, this is also a more realistic and effective policy.

Using this strategy, one explained to the Huns that I didn't want to fight, you see, I came to you to marry. The second also said that if you really want to fight, it's okay, I'll accompany you, isn't it just to marry you a woman?

As for whether the prescription is right or not, it depends on the efficacy.

Liu Bang adopted the strategy of harmony, and Liu Jing immediately said: Please send an envoy to the Xiongnu and make a peace treaty!

Liu Jing dared to take the initiative to go deep into the tiger's den, it was by no means impulsive, he knew very well that it was not a long-term thing to seal the marquis fiefdom with just a little bit of effort, who knows if Liu Bang was impulsive? When he feels that it is not worth it or should not be, he can take it back if he finds a fault! Therefore, when it is time to contribute, it is necessary to exert strength, and when it is time to take risks, it is best to take some bricks and bricks to let people see that it is worth the money, which is insurance.

Liu Jing was then given the emissary Fu Jie, and led a team of hundreds of people to march towards the Xiongnu royal court.

Liu Bang continued to lead the army to retreat.

On the way back, Liu Bang caused an incident and almost caused trouble.

Liu Bang passed by Zhao State, Zhao King Zhang Ao originally inherited his father Zhang Er Wangjue, and the credit was not great, and Zhang Er had been with Liu Bang about his in-laws, so he always regarded Liu Bang as a benefactor.

At that time, Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, and Princess Lu Yuan were not married.

Although he has not yet married, he has long regarded Liu Bang as his father-in-law, so he prepared a set of major welcome ceremonies and went out of the city thirty miles to meet his future father-in-law, Zhang Ao's attitude was very respectful.

But Liu Bang was surrounded for seven days and seven nights, and he had a fire in his heart, and he had long wanted to find a punching bag, and when he saw the submissive appearance of this future son-in-law, he scolded in his heart: How can this kind of waste still be the prince and king of my Han Dynasty?

At this moment, the depression of the days completely exploded, and the anger rushed to the door of the head.

Not only did he turn a blind eye to Zhang Ao's obedience, but he kept finding fault!

He chattered and cursed endlessly.

Liu Bang's scolding skills are quite level, I think when he was mixed on the road, this mouth kung fu, but he has not practiced less, scolding people, you can sleep endlessly, knotted and not short-circuited, in addition to being greatly traumatized by the soul, most of the people who have been scolded by him will have the desire to find a piece of tofu to kill in their hearts.

It is said that if he is provoked, he will jump over the wall with a tiger, jump directly to people's necks, scold and pull people's ears, and bite his teeth a little harder. If you wear a hat, it will be even worse, once the hat is pulled off by him, he will definitely throw it on the ground, step on it a few times, and then untie the belt, and a hot yellow soup will go down, and you will vomit blood on the spot. If you happen to run into him washing his feet, maybe a basin of foot-washing water will come down, and you will be salty from head to toe, licking with your tongue, and you will have to flatter him with a sad face: It tastes great!

Zhang Ao knew that his father-in-law was a good woman, so he specially gave him his favorite concubine, but Liu Bang didn't appreciate it when he received the woman. Zhang Ao has a hard time, who calls him his father-in-law? And is it His Majesty the father-in-law?

Hey, who's messing with whom!

Actually, Zhang Ao still didn't understand that Liu Bang was not angry, he was deliberately finding fault, he didn't want to insult King Zhao, he was looking at King Zhao's throne.

Zhang Ao endured it, but Zhao Xiangguan was high, and Zhao Wu really couldn't stand it. They were originally Zhang Er's subordinates, and they had a bold temperament, but they were very impulsive.

If it weren't for Liu Bang's well-guarded side, they would have brought an ax in and unloaded Liu Bang into eight pieces.

After Liu Bang left, Zhao Wu found King Zhao and said: "King, the emperor treats you so much, and the ministers really can't stand it." In the opinion of the minister, it is simply the opposite of the fuck!

As soon as King Zhao heard this, he immediately bit his fingers and said loudly: How can you say such a thing? Please don't talk about it again.

With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Guan Gao looked at the back of King Zhao leaving, and said: My king, the king is also! I think we might as well do it ourselves, the success will go to King Zhao, and the defeat will go to ourselves.

Since then, the two have been actively planning a plan to kill Liu Bang.

In the second year (199 BC), Liu Bang once again drove his personal expedition to Dongyuan to attack the remnants of Han Wangxin. This time, without the help of the Xiongnu iron cavalry, the remnants of Han Wangxin were quickly defeated, and Liu Bang's victorious division passed through Zhao again on the way back to the court.

Guan Gao and Zhao Wu learned the news and greeted Liu Bang in Bairen County, where they had ambushed the assassin in the Xingyuan toilet they had prepared in advance, and planned to invite Liu Bang to stay here, and when the time came, Liu Bang would be sent to the West Heaven, and then support King Zhao as the Son of Heaven.

But plans don't change as fast as they come.

After Liu Bang arrived in Bairen County, he asked his subordinates: What kind of county is this?

Kashiwa County!

Liu Bang seemed to smell the unusual smell in the air, and found something strange, and said: Bai people, forcing people, order the whole army, don't stay here tonight!

The conspiracy that Guan Gao, Zhao Wu and others had worked so hard to plan was in vain.

However, Guan Gao, Zhao Wu did not give up, he swore that as long as he still had his life, he would definitely seek justice for King Zhao!

But somehow, Guan Gao's enemies learned of Guan Gao's conspiracy and were very excited, so they immediately reported their rebellion to the imperial court.

Liu Bang was angry and happy, angry that they dared to be so bold and harbor evil intentions, happy that they finally had an excuse to get rid of King Zhao, speaking of this mediocre son-in-law, he was angry, occupying the pit and not pulling that or something, he deliberately humiliated him last time, I wanted to provoke him to treat him for a big crime of disrespect, but I didn't expect that stinky boy to really be able to bear it. Liu Bang was dissatisfied with Zhang Aoda from the bottom of his heart, if it weren't for his father's sake, he would never give him the throne.

Now it's okay, Zhang Ao hit the muzzle of the gun and fell into Liu Bang's arms.

Good son-in-law, no wonder father-in-law, in the land of Zhao Kingdom, I have already found a new master for him! Liu Bang was overjoyed.

Liu Bang immediately issued an edict to arrest King Zhao and his accomplices!

Don't even think about running!

When the officials of Zhao State heard the news, they were greatly alarmed and gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

But after thinking about it, there is no strength to confront the imperial court, as long as the crime of rebellion is confirmed, there is only one way to die, and for this crime, there is no so-called restriction on punishment by doctors, and the jailers will definitely not let go of a good opportunity to exercise their bodies when they catch these people who are bound to die. If you go to prison, it means shame!

A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated.

In desperation, everyone naturally thought of the last way to preserve their dignity, killing themselves. said that it was too late, it was fast, Zhao Wu had already taken the lead in drawing his sword out of the sheath and hitting the road, and then several of Zhao Wang's subordinates fell in a pool of blood.

Guan Gao saw that if this continued, no one in Zhao Wangfu wanted to stay, so he shouted: King Zhao did not participate in the rebellion at all, it is all our fault, if we want to die, we have to go to Chang'an to explain and avenge King Zhao! If they are all dead, who will restore King Zhao's innocence?

As soon as the minister said, everyone woke up!

They suddenly quieted down, and thought slightly: Yes, King Zhao is not at fault, if he is involved, we will not be able to redeem ourselves as courtiers!

So, Guan Gao accompanied King Zhao to Chang'an.

Liu Bang was a little surprised by their initiative: I have seen someone who is not afraid of death, but I have never seen someone who is not afraid of death.

In fact, Liu Bang knew King Zhao's personality very well, and said that the stupid boy rebelled, and he didn't dare to lend him ten dares. But this is a perfect opportunity to abolish the king with a different surname, and he has to make some truth and give him a crime.

King Zhao and Guan Gao were both imprisoned.

Princess Lu Yuan learned that her fiancé was arrested, and hurriedly pleaded with Empress Lu, who felt sorry for her daughter and went to meet Liu Bang and intercede with Zhang Ao, but Liu Bang was furious. Empress Lu touched his nose, so he could only secretly find the presiding judge, Wang Tian, and only said four words to him. It stands to reason that according to the truth, it is the professional ethics of the court lieutenant, and there is no need for the queen to discipline it herself. On the surface, Empress Lu said a nonsense! But if you think about it carefully, this is strange, what is the identity of Empress Lu, how can he come all the way to talk nonsense?

What does the queen mean exactly? Wang Tian is a clever person, and after a little pondering, he understands that the queen has something to say.

Lu Hou's meaning is obviously that there is someone above Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, and she is the person above, this is the 'truth' according to the truth.

High, Empress Lu is really tall! Her seemingly nonsense words are really too high, even if King Zhao's rebellion case is confirmed in the future, Empress Lu will have nothing to do with it.

Wang Tian took King Zhao to a special room, and secretly ordered the jailers to unify their understanding, proclaim to take care of King Zhao externally, and serve King Zhao internally, in addition to restricting going out, to make him feel at home.

However, Guan Gao did not have such a good treatment. Although the edicts of the Han Dynasty were not as terrifying as those of the later Ming and Qing dynasties, there were really a lot of tricks, such as scraping, beating, whipping, stabbing, and chopping, which can be described as eighteen kinds of torture tools, all available.

After Wang Tian's several interrogations, Guan Gao was adamant: This matter has nothing to do with King Zhao!

Wang Tian knew that such a result would naturally not satisfy Liu Bang, so he gave the jailer a look. The jailers understood, immediately rolled up their sleeves, spat on the palms of their hands, took out ten strength, pulled up the whip and whipped it hard, and the flesh and blood all over his body were blurred, but he still did not change his words.

Wang Tian was very annoyed when he saw that Guan Gao's bones were so hard, and gave him another look to the jailer. The jailer nodded, his face turned hideous, and one of them took out an iron needle as long as a little finger, and burned it on a charcoal stove, and when the iron needle was burned to charcoal red, he took it out and slowly stabbed it into his limbs. The word "slowly" is really chilling. Although Guan Gao is a tough guy, he can't withstand this torture and passes out several times.

Guan Gao was tried and beaten at the same time, but what Wang Tian heard was always one sentence: King Zhao did not conspire!

After three days of trial like this, the result was still the same, and Wang Tian could only report to Liu Bang according to the truth.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bang was amazed after hearing this: what a strong man! The bones are so hard!

Liu Bang suddenly felt pity for Guan Gao. Liu Bang then sent Guan Gao's acquaintance, Dr. Zhongda, to visit him in prison, apparently for visiting, but in fact for investigation.

He immediately went to the Imperial Prison, and Guan Gao pushed his heart, and soon after, he came back to report to Liu Bang. After listening to the report of the leaking father, Liu Bang was silent, and said for a while: You go to the prison to deliver the decree, just tell him that King Zhao will be released immediately, and I respect him as a righteous man, and I will release him.

Liu Bang made such a decision because Guan Gao's words moved him, and he was reasonable! Liu Bang is not the kind of person who does anything to find fault, although he is insidious, he still has a conscience.

Born as a human being, who does not love his wife and children, Guan Gao is tortured, risking the extinction of the three clans, and does not slander King Zhao. Isn't the word of such a person worth believing? Let it go, even if he has a great crime of rebellion, my Han needs thousands of such loyal people, and I, Liu Bang, need thousands of such loyal people! Liu Bang said with emotion.

When he came back from prison again, there were still tears on his face, and it was because Guan Gao committed suicide. Guan Gao survived for the innocence of King Zhao, and now that King Zhao is out of prison, his mission is complete, and he wants to apologize to Liu Bang.

Liu Bang was even more moved.

The dead are long gone, and the living will suffer.

Although it was found out that King Zhao was not guilty, Liu Bang still did not pardon him, he issued an edict, demoted Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, as the Marquis of Xuanping, and incorporated the land into the Zhao State, and Liu Ruyi, the beloved son of the king, was renamed the king of Zhao, Zhou Chang was appointed as the minister of Zhao, and the former Julu County Shou Chen Feng was the acting minister, and it was in this place that Chen Feng began the secret plan in his heart.

This old brother Chen Feng is also a figure in the Han army, just because there were many famous generals who were more famous than him at that time, and he was not ranked, but he became famous later, and his fame was very dramatic, he was the same as Zang Di, he committed the big crime of rebellion, the same crime, but the difference is very different. Chen Xuan's level lies in the fact that when he traveled to the famous scenic spot Huangquan, he pulled a bunch of heavyweights on the road together.

This makes people have to sigh: the same crime, why is the gap between crimes so big?

Brother Chen Yanren had already visited a person before he became the warden of Julu County, and although this person was now powerless, he still worshipped this person as a god. This person is Han Xin, who has been living in the mansion.

In Han Xin's house, even ghosts don't dare to come to the door now, but Chen Feng dares to visit, which shows how bold he is.

Han Xin saw that the guests had finally come, so he naturally felt very cordial, he retreated left and right, took the hands of his old subordinates and said: Can you tell me something confidant? (suffocated)

Listen to the general's orders! Chen Feng said respectfully.

The public office is stationed, and the world's elite soldiers are also. And the public has won the trust of His Majesty, but if someone falsely accuses the public of rebellion, His Majesty will not believe it once, and if someone falsely accuses him again, I am afraid that His Majesty will have to believe it if he does not believe it, and at that time, His Majesty will definitely send troops to conscript. If we should be together inside and outside, the world can be rich!

When Chen Xun heard this, he was shocked, he knew that Han Xin was not a person who spoke falsely, it seemed that he really had the idea of rebellion, okay, with a genius leader like Han Xin, wouldn't it be easy to divide the world?

After Chen Feng made up his mind, he bowed to Han Xin and said: I would like to be taught by the general.

After speaking, he said goodbye and left, Han Xin looked at the back of Chen Feng leaving, and a fire of hope ignited in his heart.

And Chen Feng is silently preparing in Daiguo, and the storm set off by him will become the curtain call battle in Liu Bang's life.
