Competing

Chapter 340 Meeting
"Han Xin...Han Xin left a step..."

Under the moonlight, Xiao He rode his horse and galloped, and the guards accompanying him were all shocked, how could Prime Minister Xiao, who is usually Liswen, be so crazy today.Xiao He, who had never seen Xiao He rushing on a horse like this, completely lost his usual solemnity and demeanor, and some people were somewhat surprised.

Seeing a figure standing proudly by the stream under the moonlight, Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly feared that the horse would come over.Many guards had been ordered in advance, so they knew that Prime Minister Xiao was here for the food officer Han Xin.

Now that I saw him in person, we all looked at him at the same time, to see what was different about this Han Xin, who made Prime Minister Xiao read the Tao like this, and rushed to pursue it regardless of the night.This kind of treatment is in the whole country of Han, and I am afraid that no one else will have it.

"Han Xin, wait a minute!" Seeing the person running in, Xiao He felt relieved after seeing clearly that the person was indeed Han Xin.As long as people have not left and are still within the control range, these things will be easy to handle.It's just that people are already angry, and it would be difficult to persuade them to return after traveling so far?Thinking of this, Xiao He couldn't help but sigh, thinking of the great contribution Han Xin might have made to Han, he just had to bite the bullet and walk up.

Seeing Xiao He approaching, Han Xin couldn't help but forced a wry smile, Xiao He actually came.He wasn't there when I was waiting for him outside Nan/Zheng City, but now he's here, so what can I feel now?What is the purpose?
Han Dao said, "Prime Minister Xiao..."

Xiao He hurriedly said: "I'm sorry Han Xin, I went to the palace today, some things were delayed, and I couldn't return in time, it was my fault, please forgive me."

Han Xin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Don't dare, Prime Minister Xiao has an overview of Han's government affairs, and it is natural to take care of everything. Besides, I, Han Xin, how can I make Prime Minister Xiao treat you so favorably? gone."

Xiao He heard Han Xin's tone and knew that Han Xin was really angry because of this matter.He also understands that people with great talents are proud of their talents, which is completely understandable.Today is indeed because of his own mistakes, so Han Xin's thoughts and complaints are completely acceptable.

Xiao He said: "I'm very sorry for Han Xin, today coincides with the busy Han King, so..."

Han Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Yes, the King of Han is busy, entertaining civil servants and military generals with banquets in the palace, how can I have time to take care of such an inconspicuous little food official like Han Xin, I am really too ignorant and whimsical."

Xiao He never thought that Han Xin already knew about the banquet in the Han Palace, and he didn't have much time to wonder how the news was leaked.Now I just think about how to persuade Han Xin, how to explain this matter clearly, and solve it satisfactorily.

"Han Xin, since you already know, I will open the skylight and tell you the truth. Han Wang is having a banquet tonight. But in the middle of the banquet, my wife and I persuaded Han Wang and recommended you again. Han Wang has already realized that you are extraordinary. I was specially asked to come and find you." Xiao He could only explain "truthfully".

But at the same time of explaining, he had to tell a lie again, and now he had to obtain Han Xin's understanding in the shortest possible time.I can't manage so many things anymore, and I can only borrow the name of Hanwang in an emergency.I have been away for so long, Lu Zhi must have gone to see Liu Bang, I hope I can successfully persuade him!Otherwise, after going back today, it is inevitable that he will be betrayed, which will have a great impact on Hanwang and his own prestige.

It will also completely lose such a talent as Han Xin, which is the most critical point.At the same time, Xiao He also has a small worry, if he looks at others wrongly, the talents of the Han family can't reach the expected height, and if they can't bring such benefits to the Han country, then it will be a big embarrassment.But now I don't have so many scruples, I can only hope that the chosen Han Xin will not disappoint, and pray secretly!
Han Xin said lightly: "Prime Minister Xiao is serious, but Han Xin's words are light, but he is just an inconspicuous food official. How can he be so mobilizing to mobilize people to work for Prime Minister Xiao, what about the King of Han and his wife? It's wrong for Han to say goodbye, so now So I asked Prime Minister Xiao to resign, and Han Xin will not do the work of the grain officer. As for the other things...forget it, Han Xin just wants to visit his hometown in Huaiyin, and we can talk about other things later!"

Xiao He couldn't help feeling anxious, and hurriedly said: "Are you really determined to go?"

Han Xin turned around slightly, looked sideways and asked, "Could it be that Prime Minister Xiao doesn't intend to let me go? I don't know if this is the intention of the Prime Minister or the King of Han?"

Xiao He was anxious, knowing that Han Xin had misunderstood himself.During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the attitude towards talents was that they could not be used by me, so killing others was not cheap.Since the appearance of this habit, it is not uncommon. When Gongsun Yang was not reused in the state of Wei, Qi Xiang once persuaded King Wei to kill him if he was not used.

This is what Han Xin thinks of now, if he does not agree to Xiao He's request, he will die here.Since Xiao He said that he opened the skylight to speak frankly, then he was straightforward and took off the disguise clearly, so that there was no need to hide and hide, and he treated each other sincerely.

Xiao He said: "Of course not. If you must leave, Han Xin, then Xiao He will send you away...but Xiao He doesn't want you to leave!"

Han Xin said lightly: "Then Prime Minister Xiao, do you think there is a need and a reason for me to take it with me? There is nothing here that is worthy of my nostalgia."

Xiao He explained: "It's my fault that I didn't come here in time today. Please forgive me, Han Xin. The King of Han already knows about Han Xin's achievements and deeds, and I really want to see you, so... please give it to me, to Xiao He, to the King of Han, and to yourself. Is there a chance?"

Han Xin shook his head and said, "I've seen you last time, who can guarantee that it will be different this time? I, Han Xin, don't want to go on like this. I hope that Prime Minister Xiao will be successful..."

Xiao He shook his head and said earnestly: "Han Xin, you think too much, you won't. The King of Han will definitely treat you differently this time. This time it was my mistake and the King of Han's. Don't leave, go back with me to meet the King of Han .Wouldn’t it be better to show the King of Han your talents and abilities, and make people convinced?”

Han Xin stood where he was, and began to hesitate.He has always longed to be able to stand out, make contributions, and even be crowned king.Therefore, what is most needed is a platform, a carrier that can showcase one's talents and abilities.This was the case when he participated in the Chu uprising army during the anti-Qin uprising earlier.

It's a pity that things backfired, and we have been waiting until now.At present, Han Country is a very good choice for him, and he also wants to make a difference here, because he holds the most precious and mysterious secret in his hands.When the army left Bashu, he already had a plan for how to develop in the future. He had confidence in himself, and he could see the infinitely glorious prospects of Han. It was for this reason that he wanted to have his own land here. world.

So to be honest, he didn't want to really leave. Today's situation is completely helpless, and such a result can only be caused by being disheartened.But now that it's here, maybe this is what he expected, but this guess is a bit long-term and the risk is too high.In fact, whether he has the idea of ​​putting on a show, others have no way of guessing. As for what he thinks in his heart, I am afraid that only Han Xin knows.

Hearing what Xiao He said at this time, how could Han Xin not be tempted?There will inevitably be some thoughts in my mind.Now he began to hesitate, if what Xiao He said was true, then his status in South Korea would also rise, and he would be reused by the King of Han Liu Bang just around the corner, as for the rest, he was not worried at all.

He has the Chen Cang path from Bashu in his heart, and he has a full stomach of military strategies, so he will definitely be able to live up to his name and be reused.This has an unprecedented good opportunity for his own development, and at the same time, it is also the fulfillment of what Yue Wang Yinxu confessed.It is precisely because of this reason that Xiao He said such a condition now, which is very attractive to him, Han Xin.Let him be moved involuntarily, even hard to extricate himself!
Han Xin asked in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Xiao, I don't know if what you said is true? Han Xin doesn't want to waste unnecessary time on these trivial matters, please forgive me."

Xiao He replied: "Yes, Xiao He will try his best to help you. I hope you can bring hope and prospects to Han."

There was a smug smile on the corner of Han Xin's mouth, Xiao He clearly grasped it, he knew that this person's psychology had begun to relax, and he slowly accepted it.Without losing the opportunity, he added: "Han Xin, you see that I was entrusted by the King of Han to come here overnight, which shows my enthusiasm and sincerity. Also, look at the water in the cold stream, which suddenly soared so much that it made you stop. , it is obvious that this is God's will, and you will not be allowed to leave your country of Han."

Han Xin sighed lightly and said: "Han, what virtue and ability, actually worked so hard that Xiao Cheng came here one night at a time, Han Xin was very touched..."

After Xiao He heard it, he finally heaved a sigh of relief inwardly, revealing a hint of relief.When Han Xin said this, he finally let go, and he was willing to go back with him, which was an indirect expression.It shows that he wants to give himself a chance and Han Guo a chance. All in all, this is a great thing.The only hope now is that Lu Zhi has successfully persuaded Liu Bang, otherwise the loss today will be small and the loss will be immeasurable...

Because Xiao He was chasing Han Xin under the moon, he came in a hurry, and he was not in such a hurry when he returned, so he walked quite busy this way.It was early morning the next day when we returned to Nan/Zheng.Before entering the city, Xiao He found an excuse and sent two confidantes back first. As for the purpose, of course, he went to see Lu Zhi, to find out what was going on first, so that he could have sufficient preparation and response, so as not to make rash mistakes.

When he entered the city, two confidantes had already returned to bring him good news that everything was settled with Lu Zhi.Xiao He finally breathed a sigh of relief now, and took Han Xin directly to the Han Palace without making any unnecessary stops.Now it is the time to deal with government affairs in the early morning, so it is a good choice to visit Hanwang Liu Bang.

In the palace, Han Wang Liu Bang had just eaten breakfast, and his spirit was a little out of sorts.During the banquet last night, Liu Bang was in a happy mood. This kind of drinking is not uncommon, and it is inevitable to feel uncomfortable after being drunk.Originally, he would be fine after a good night's sleep, but after returning yesterday, his wife Lu Zhi didn't give him a chance to sleep at all, but directly used the secret recipe to sober him up.

And he emphasized Han Xin's matter with himself. Originally, Liu Bang didn't take Han Xin too seriously, but now he has to pay attention to it.Maybe it was true that I didn't take things seriously before, and there should be something special about someone who can be admired so much by Xiao He.What's more, now that his wife Lu Zhi is also involved, if I don't see this Han Xin again, I'm afraid it will refute a lot of people's face.It is obviously inappropriate to do so, he will not do loss-making business, neglect Xiao He, and have a negative impact on the handling of Han's government affairs.If Lu's pheasant is neglected, life will be uncomfortable tonight.

Therefore, after a little consideration, Liu Bang agreed to summon the legendary Han Xin.According to Lu Zhi's idea, he also wanted Liu Bang to go out of the city, or to be greeted at the gate of the Taoist Palace, so as to show the attitude of a corporal who is thirsty for talents and courteous, but Liu Bang flatly refused.I don't know what this Han Xin is like now, so I recklessly give this high standard. If Han Xin's performance is mediocre in the future, wouldn't I be humiliated?Han Wang Liu Bang would not do things that would harm his dignity and face.

Liu Bang finally decided to summon Han Xin normally in the palace, which can be regarded as giving enough face, not face and dignity.At the same time, Xiao He went to invite him overnight, which was already considered a great face, and he thought the other party would be satisfied.Seeing that Liu Bang had already made concessions, Lu Zhi could no longer continue to demand further, so he nodded and agreed. This is already a very good result.

Today the King of Han did not convene the early court, just to meet Han Xin alone, which is considered grand.Liu Bang yawned from time to time when he was eating, although the secret recipe for sobering up could make him wake up quickly last night.But judging from the current situation, there are obviously side effects.However, those who can sit on the princes and kings are all extraordinary people, and naturally they also have extraordinary abilities. Liu Bang rubbed his eyes, wiped his face, and regained his energy, turned around and walked towards the palace with fast pace.

Xiao He took Han Xin all the way to the palace in a hurry. On the way, Xiao He told Han Xindao: "Today, the king does not deal with other government affairs. He made a special trip just to wait for you..." His intention was obvious, that is, to tell Han Xin that Liu Bang actually How much God cares about him, so that he will be more moved.

However, Han Xin was very indifferent to this. He didn't know the truth of these things, and they didn't have much meaning in themselves.What needs to be seen now is Liu Bang himself, the King of Han. What does he have to say?Han Xin is more looking forward to this, but of course he also has a little anxiety. Sometimes he pays too much attention to it, and he becomes more and more afraid of losing it. He is now in such a state of mind.

At this time, no one thought that this simple meeting would have such an impact on Han Xin himself, on Han, and on the world situation?
