The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

“Even if you stay in Chang’an, the two of you don’t have to meet.”

"How about we have the Marquis of Huaiyin cultivate with me?"

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was becoming tense again, Zhang Liang spoke up at the right time.

He understood the meaning of "prudent self-preservation" very well.

He always knows when to say what.

They also knew how to save Han Xin's life.

They couldn't linger in front of Liu Bang, nor could they be sent to a remote place where the emperor would be wary of them.

As the Marquis of Huaiyin, his only way to survive was to obediently cultivate Taoism while receiving the imperial salary.

Han Xin: “…”

"Cultivation?"

"Do we have to be vegetarian from now on?"

He glanced at Zhang Liang with some confusion.

I am the Grand Marshal of all the armies under heaven, and I have killed countless people on the battlefield. I don't know how many people have died because of me, Han Xin.

Can someone like me cultivate Taoism?

Seemingly understanding his confusion, Zhang Liang smiled.

"The Tao follows nature. If you wish to be vegetarian, then be vegetarian; if you wish to become a monk, then become a monk."

"Cultivating the Tao is about achieving inner peace and joy."

"There are no restrictions on you. The only requirement is that you cannot go down the mountain at will, and you certainly cannot show off in front of His Majesty."

Vegetarian?

Even Zhang Liang himself didn't eat vegetarian food!

"That's no problem, but it depends on whether His Majesty is willing to spare the life of an arrogant person like me."

Han Xin did not have much objection to this.

He had indeed thought about the idea that "nobles and high-ranking officials are born with special privileges."

But after Liu Bang demoted him from King of Chu to Marquis of Huaiyin, he never again entertained the idea of ​​rebellion.

The question now is whether Liu Bang is willing to let him off the hook.

Upon hearing Han Xin's rather offensive words, Liu Bang did not look at him immediately, but instead looked at Zhang Liang.

"Zifang, you really are a mind reader."

"I'm just wondering, is it possible for you to guess what I'm thinking no matter what I'm thinking?"

He didn't believe that Zhang Liang had come up with the suggestion on the spur of the moment.

It's likely that Zhang Liang had already foreseen that he would kill Han Xin long before today.

"That's not the case. Your Majesty is the ruler of all under Heaven. How could I presume to guess Your Majesty's thoughts? It was just a suggestion that suddenly came to mind."

"If His Majesty does not agree, or if the Marquis of Huaiyin is unwilling to cultivate Taoism, then pretend I said nothing today."

"You two should resolve your own issues."

Zhang Liang first offered a compliment, then quickly distanced himself from the matter.

He has a very clear understanding of his own position.

Before the world was at peace, he was one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty.

Now that the affairs of the world have been settled, Liu Bang will surely use his sword to strike down some of his arrogant old ministers.

So from the very beginning, he used the excuse of cultivating Taoism to distance himself from the imperial court.

They stripped him of everything, to the point that even Liu Bang felt somewhat guilty towards them.

"Very well, Han Xin, are you willing to cultivate Taoism with Zhang Liang?"

Han Xin: “…”

“If this is the only way to survive, then I am willing, but Your Majesty, you are wrong.”

"Although Zhang Liang is the Marquis of Liu, I am still the Marquis of Huaiyin even after being demoted. How can this make it sound like I am inferior to him?"

Zhang Liang: “…”

He was truly exasperated by Han Xin's stubborn temper.

Is now the time to worry about this?

You're almost dead!

You're lucky to be alive right now, and you're still worrying about all this nonsense.

Liu Bang was also furious.

Han Xin was like this from the very beginning, finding fault with him everywhere.

He seems to feel uncomfortable if he doesn't verbally display his superiority!

"Alright, alright, I misspoke. You can cultivate Taoism with Marquis Liu, okay?"

"Get lost! Stop hanging around in front of me, it's annoying!"

Upon hearing this, Han Xin was finally satisfied.

"According to the order."

"According to the order."

Zhang Liang quickly led Han Xin away.

Beyond the sky, watching this farce come to an end, many people felt that if Han Xin had really died, it wouldn't have been a miscarriage of justice!

So arrogant, yet they dared to provoke the emperor.

Such a person would not have a good end under most emperors!

"If you ask me, Han Xin's death was not unjust. He didn't understand hierarchy and had no respect for Emperor Gaozu. He was too arrogant!"

Old Zhu issued a statement.

He also stated that if Han Xin were in his hands, he would not only be discarded after his usefulness was over, but he would most likely not even live to see the unification of the country!

"If it were used for conquering new territories, there would probably be few people in the world who could compare to Han Xin."

"It's a pity that this person has a rebellious nature and is too daunting. Otherwise, he alone would have had the opportunity to resolve the Xiongnu scourge that would last for hundreds of years."

Li Er stopped finding fault with Liu Bang.

If you have the ability, it's okay to be a little arrogant.

But you can't just use the act of picking on the emperor to show off your talent all the time, can you?

Even Wei Zheng would only argue his case when he was in the right.

When Li Er did nothing wrong, did you see Wei Zheng obediently remain silent?

"However, it is truly a pity about Han Xin. If he had been able to seize the opportunity precisely when the Han Dynasty was first established, he might have really been able to overthrow the country."

Cao Cao was quite familiar with the events that occurred during the early Han Dynasty.

The early Han Dynasty was also the period when the country was at its weakest.

At that time, Han Xin was still the King of Chu. Judging from the military strength under his control, his terrifying ability to rapidly build up troops, and his strength in commanding troops and arranging formations in battle, he was a formidable force.

If he had been more decisive, he would have had at least a 30% chance of overthrowing Liu Bang's Han dynasty.

"You could say that no one is perfect. Heaven gave him the talent of a military genius, but took away his talent for rebellion."

"When it comes to rebellion, any rebel in the thousands of years of history would be far more decisive than him!"

Han Xin walked out of the palace, looked at the lines of comments praising him on the screen, and curled his lip in disdain.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Liang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but smile.

"Let them say what they want. Whether you thought about it before or not, His Majesty said he would let you off the hook today and he won't bring up the past."

To everyone's surprise, Han Xin simply shook his head.

"No, I didn't mean to deny it."

"what?"

Zhang Liang was stunned.

He stiffly looked up at the sky.

The scene in the sky right now is still pointing directly at the two of them!

Brother, you're not going to say something outrageous at a time like this, are you?

This is no way to court death!

He was about to reach out and cover Han Xin's mouth, but it was too late.

“When I was enfeoffed as the King of Chu, my army was strong and well-equipped. If I had rebelled then, I would have been at least 50% confident that I could have overthrown the Han Dynasty.”

"I'm not bragging, but in my opinion, not a single one of these big men is any fight-ready!"

"But then I thought, military strategy is my forte, but what if I overthrow the Han Dynasty?"

"I can fight a war, but I can't be an emperor."
