Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He is an allusion

First, Cheng is also Xiao He.

When Han Xin was young, he lived a poor life and was looked down upon by many people, and later defected to Xiang Yu, he made some suggestions after defecting to Xiang Yu but were not accepted, Han Xin felt that he could not be reused by Xiang Yu, and then went to Liu Bang.

Liu Bang didn't reuse Han Xin at first, but just made him a petty official. Later, by chance, Han Xin met Xiao He, who was Liu Bang's confidant at that time and was very much used by Liu Bang. Han Xin and Xiao He had a long talk, and after they finished talking, Xiao He admired Han Xin very much and thought that Han Xin was a rare talent.

So he wrote a letter to Liu Bang to recommend Han Xin, but when he wrote the letter, Han Xin ran away, and Xiao He rode a horse overnight to chase Han Xin back. After Xiao He's strong recommendation, Liu Bang finally made Han Xin a general.

Second, defeat is also Xiao He.

After Han Xin was named a general by Liu Bang, he gave full play to his talents and made great contributions to Liu Bang. But after Liu Bang became the emperor, he became more and more uneasy about Xiao He's power. Therefore, Liu Bang wanted to take back Han Xin's military power.

After that, he arrested Han Xin, and then pardoned him, and after pardoning, he was given the false position of the Marquis of Huaiyin and let him live in Chang'an.

After Han Xin was confiscated from his military power, he was depressed all day long, and later he was framed for rebellion and sued Empress Lu. Empress Lu wanted to summon Han Xin into the palace but was afraid that Han Xin would resist, so together with Xiao He, he designed to trick Han Xin into the palace, and then killed Han Xin on the charge of rebellion. This is how the idiom of "success and Xiao He defeat" comes from, saying that success is because of one person, and failure is also because of this person.

Song Hongmai "Rong Zhai Continues to Write Xiao He Xuan Han Xin":"Han Xin rebelled, and Empress Lu wanted to summon him, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do so, but he conspired with Xiao Xiangguo, and deceived people to say that Chen Feng had been broken, and he said:'Although the illness is strong, he enters the congratulations.

If you believe in it, you will be punished. The letter is a general, and he is recommended by Xiao He, and now he is dead, and he has a plan, so there is slang'Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He'Words. "Later"Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He"The metaphor is that the success or failure of things comes from the same person.

Han Xin was invested in Liu Bang's up and down, but he was not reused by Liu Bang, and when Han Xin met Xiao He, Xiao He introduced Han Xin to Liu Bang several times, and chased Han Xin back when Han Xin was discouraged, and successfully made Liu Bang worship Han Xin as a general, and later Liu Bang had murderous intentions towards Han Xin, and it was Xiao He who tricked Han Xin into the palace and was killed.

Han Xin's success or failure depends on Xiao He. Xiao He took advantage of Han Xin's trust to trick him into the palace, and was finally executed by Empress Lu.

It is often said that success is also Xiao He, and failure is also Xiao He, which is used as a metaphor for the success of a thing depends on one person, and the failure is also because of one person. So what's the allusion? This is actually related to the story of Han Xin and Xiao He. <>

Han Xin, who was magnificent, won many battles and helped Liu Bang seize the world, and was called "Soldier Immortal" by later generations. At the beginning, Han Xin was born in Huaiyin, lived a lonely life and was looked down upon by others, and later Han Xin defected to Xiang Yu to participate in the anti-Qin, and he also made some combat suggestions to Xiang Yu, but they were not reused. So Han Xin switched to Liu Bang, at the beginning, Liu Bang did not pay attention to Han Xin, at this time Liu Bang's army, many soldiers began to flee, Han Xin saw that Liu Bang did not reuse his own meaning, so he also fled.

Xiao He was very appreciative of Han Xin's talent, and when he learned that Han Xin was going to escape, he was so anxious that he didn't have time to report, so he rode a horse overnight and chased Han Xin back, which was the famous Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon. In the end, Xiao He introduced Han Xin to Liu Bang. Han Xin, who later gave full play to his military talents, helped Liu Bang sweep away the rest of the enemies, and made great achievements for the establishment of the Han Dynasty.

But soon after Liu Bang became the emperor, he became more and more uneasy about Han Xin, worried that Han Xingong's high mastery. First, Han Shin was relieved of military power, and Han Shin was arrested shortly thereafter. Han Xin sent out "The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackey cooks; After the birds are all gone, the good bow is hidden", Liu Bang pardoned Han Xin and renamed him the Marquis of Huaiyin.

In the end, Han Xin because of unfair treatment, he had a rebellious heart and Chen Xi, ready to rebel, after Liu Bang learned the news, Xiao He came forward to pretend that the north sent back good news, and invited Han Xin to the palace to celebrate. As a result, as soon as Han Xin entered the palace gate, he was surrounded and tied up by the samurai who had been ambushed in advance. Han Xin also didn't expect that Xiao He, who had vigorously recommended himself, ended up being the mastermind who killed him, so the people described Han Xin's ending as "Xiao He who succeeded, and Xiao He who failed".

So did Xiao He really fail Han Xin? The answer is no, because Han Xin and Xiao He have a good relationship. But the so-called higher you stand, the worse you fall, it is not easy to start and finish well, and Han Xin did not get a good end in the end, and died in the hands of Xiao He.

This is the ** of "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He".

Xiao He was the prime minister of Liu Bang in the Han Dynasty, and Xiao He's status at that time was very high and he was deeply valued by Liu Bang. So his political views had a great influence on Liu Bang. There is such a saying, success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He.

Han Xin became a general recommended by Xiao He; And Han Xin's killing was also Xiao He's strategy.
