Idioms and allusions

This idiom comes from the biography of Huaiyin marquis in historical records. At the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty, there was a man named Han Xin in Huaiyin (now Jiangsu Province). When he was young, he lived a lonely life and was looked down upon. Later, Han Xin defected to Xiang Yu and took part in the anti Qin war. He had made some operational suggestions to Xiang Yu, but they were not adopted. Seeing that his talent could not be used, Han Xin turned to Liu Bang. At the beginning, Liu Bang did not reuse Han Xin. He only made him a small officer. He once violated the military law and was almost executed. After he was saved from death, he was only allowed to be a small official in charge of grain and grass. By chance, Han Xin meets Xiao He. Xiao He is Liu Bang's confidant. Liu Bang is obedient to him. After a long talk with Han Xin, Xiao he admired Han Xin very much and thought that Han Xin was a rare military genius. However, just when Xiao He decided to recommend Hanxin to Liu Bang, Hanxin ran away. It turned out that most of Liu Bang's subordinates were from Xuzhou. Liu Bang was granted the title of king of Han Dynasty, and the fiefdom was located in Hanzhong, which was too narrow to develop. Therefore, the subordinates fled one after another because of homesickness. Han Xin saw that Liu Bang didn't mean to reuse himself, so he ran with him. When Xiao He learns of Han Xin's escape, he is so anxious that he has no time to report to Liu Bang. He jumps on his horse and chases Han Xin back overnight. Liu Bang thought Xiao he had run away, so he was very angry. Later, I learned that Xiao he had personally recovered Han Xin, a humble official, and scolded Xiao He for making a mountain out of a molehill. Xiao he introduced the situation of Han Xin to Liu Bang in detail, and then said: "Han Xin has outstanding military talents, not ordinary talents. If you are willing to be the king of Hanzhong all your life, you have to use this person to win the world. " Thanks to Xiao He's recommendation, Liu Bang finally agreed to pay homage to Han Xin as a great general, and chose an auspicious day to hold a grand ceremony. After Han Xin was worshipped as a general by Liu Bang, he gave full play to his military talents and made great contributions to Liu Bang's unification of the world and the establishment of the Han Dynasty. But after Liu Bang became emperor, he became more and more worried about Han Xin. First of all, Han Xin's military power was relieved, and he was changed from "king of Qi" to "king of Chu"; soon after, Han Xin was arrested; after the amnesty, only a "Marquis of Huaiyin" was granted. Han Xin, who lives in Chang'an at leisure, is depressed and frustrated. He is framed for rebellion and informs Liu Bang's wife, empress Lu. Empress Lu wanted to call Han Xin in and get rid of him, but she was afraid that he would not submit, so she discussed with Xiao He. Finally, designed by Xiao He, Han Xin is cheated into the palace, and empress Lu kills Han Xin in the bell room of Changle palace for treason. According to this period of history, posterity leads to the idiom "success is Xiao He, failure is Xiao He", which means that the success or failure of things is due to the same person.
