Liu Bo, Liu Bang's eldest brother, died earlier. Liu Bang loved making friends when he was young, and often took a group of friends to his sister-in-law's house for dinner.
Liu Bang's eldest sister-in-law didn't like Liu Bang, so once, when Liu Bang took a friend to clean the house, she pretended that there was no rice in the pot and scraped it with a spoon.
Liu Bang's friend left without food. After the friends left, Liu Bang looked at the pot and found that there was food in it. From then on, I began to blame my sister-in-law
When Liu Bang became emperor, he sealed all his brothers and princes, sealed his sons and nephews, but did not seal the son of his eldest brother.
Liu Bang's father, Liu Taigong, went to Liu Bang and told him, How did you forget your eldest brother's son?
Liu bang said, how could I forget my nephew? I didn't seal it because my eldest sister-in-law is not a loyal person!
Before the uprising, Liu Bang was the curator of Surabaya Pavilion. As the director of Sishui Pavilion, Liu Bang is "always generous" and "willing to give and open-minded." Such Liu Bang certainly despises the stingy sister-in-law, so Liu Bang's comments to her sister-in-law after he ascended the throne were "rude".
When Han Xin was a commoner, he was poor and had no food to eat, so he had to stay at Nanchang Tingchang's house. After Han Xin ate and drank in Nanchang Tingchang's house for several months, Nanchang Tingchang's wife was as stingy as Mrs. Liu Bang.
When Han Xin went to Nanchang Tingchang's house again for free, he found Tingchang's daughter-in-law got up early and cooked a meal. After eating, she stopped eating that day. Han Xin is a wise man and naturally understands that he no longer wants to give himself free food and drink.
Han Xin was furious and decided to leave. He has never been to Tingchang's house again.
Han Xin, who had no food, had to go fishing by the river.
It may be that there are few fish in that river, or that the fish are scared by the people by the river, or that Han Xin's fishing skills are too poor. In a word, Han Xin often fails to catch fish.
Seeing that Han Xin was hungry, the aunt who made money by washing clothes by the river gave her rice to Han Xin, and one point was dozens of days. Han Xin was very happy and told her that I would repay you heavily in the future.
The woman who washed clothes got angry and criticized Han Xin, saying that you are too big to eat. I looked distressed and gave you the rice. Am I repaying you?
A few years later, Han Xin was made King of Chu. In the countryside of Han Xin, I found the washerwoman who shared her meal and gave her one thousand catties. Instead of repaying Han Xin's aunt, she was rewarded.
What does this mean? Contact Liu Bang to talk about not sealing the eldest brother's children. Think about it. We can find that in the eyes of Liu Bang, Han Xin and others, it is the real gentleman's behavior not to report kindness. And a kind or kind person is not a gentleman if he doesn't make it to the end.
Liu bang's eldest sister-in-law can't be a good person, so with the help of her father-in-law, she reluctantly sealed her son. The director of Nanchang Pavilion is also a good man. He didn't make it to the end and was finally evaluated as a "villain".
Don't tell me that the good people in Nanchang Pavilion didn't do it because of their daughters-in-law. What can his daughter-in-law do if he doesn't agree? Did he stop his daughter-in-law from doing that? So Han Xin, the king of Chu, gave Nanchang Tingchang four words, which also explained why Han Xin said Nanchang Tingchang was a "villain". These four words are-
"Don't die for virtue".
