Chapter 556: The conflict between Han Xin and Xiao He, power!

When Han Xin said this, his voice was obviously a little angry. Although the relationship between Han Xin, Xiao He and Cao Shen had always been quite harmonious, the situation was very different now. Behind these three people, each of them had many supporters, forming small groups.

Xiao He said this in front of many officials without hesitation, which was tantamount to putting all the blame on Han Xin. This undoubtedly made Han Xin extremely dissatisfied, after all, he also had his own team and power.

Although they all served Gao Yao, as their status and position continued to rise, everyone began to build their own small circles. Although these small groups were loyal to Gao Yao on the surface, they would inevitably engage in some political struggles in private.

After all, Gao Yao now commands tens of millions of people, which is an extremely powerful force in any period of history. He has a wealth of weapons, equipment, weapons, food and other resources. It can be said that he has everything. The only thing that may be considered a shortcoming is that the resources of war horses are relatively tight.

Under Gao Yao's command, there would naturally be inevitable political games and struggles, especially since Gao Yao was already 40 years old and had not yet given birth to a son. Naturally, there were also many people with different ideas under his command. Although Han Xin's political vision was not good, he was not stupid enough to do so. If he really admitted what Xiao He said, then Han Xin would be extremely stupid.

"Han Xin, I am sincerely reminding you, don't wait until it's too late to regret! You must not underestimate the Prime Minister. Since he has the ability to train a group of people, he naturally has the ability to kill them. The Prime Minister has always been clear about rewards and punishments. If you don't believe it, then I have nothing to say!"

How could Xiao He not hear the dissatisfaction in Han Xin's words at this time? He simply said no more and turned around to leave.

Seeing this, Han Xin frowned slightly and watched Xiao He walk farther and farther away until he disappeared from his sight. The officials around him looked at Han Xin and seemed to have something to say, but no one took the initiative to speak. Seeing this, Han Xin felt even more annoyed. After a cold snort, he turned around and left the place.

All the way back to the mansion, Han Xin's mood still did not improve at all, and his face was always covered with a layer of depression. As soon as he entered the mansion, he went straight to the table, picked up the wine pot, raised his head and drank a few mouthfuls. However, the strong wine did not make him feel refreshed at all, but made his thoughts more confused.

As Han Xin continued to drink, he kept thinking about what Gao Yao and Xiao He had said. He couldn't help but wonder if there was any deep meaning in these words.

"General, it's late at night. You should go to bed early and stop drinking!"

With this shout, Han Xin came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream. He looked around and realized that time had passed quietly, the night was deep, everything was silent, and he was still intoxicated by the wine without realizing it.

Han Xin's eyes slowly fell on the servant beside him. He saw that the servant's face was full of fear, and he didn't dare to raise his head. It seemed that he was very afraid of Han Xin's gaze. Han Xin frowned slightly when he saw this, and a trace of curiosity surged in his heart.

"Who are you?" Han Xin's voice was low and majestic, with a sense of oppression that could not be ignored.

The servant shuddered all over, and quickly knelt on his knees, bowed his head and replied: "General, I am Wang Gui, a servant in the mansion. I saw that the general was still drinking late at night, and I was worried about his health, so I dared to speak out to persuade him."

Han Xin stared at the servant in front of him, thinking to himself. He was busy with military affairs on weekdays and knew very little about the servants in the mansion. However, he was a little surprised that this servant dared to speak so bluntly in front of him.

In front of Gao Yao, Han Xin was a general and he was loyal to Gao Yao, which was a well-known fact. This did not mean that Han Xin was someone who could be easily despised.

Thinking of this, Han Xin's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He looked at the servant in front of him and said slowly, "Get up. You are quite courageous, daring to advise this general. However, considering your good intentions, this general will not blame you."

The servant felt as if he had been pardoned. He kowtowed to express his gratitude, then stood up tremblingly, stepped aside, and dared not say another word.

At the same time in history, Han Xin was just beginning to make his mark under Liu Bang. He had not received excessive attention, let alone any great achievements.

Now, Han Xin's reputation has long been known throughout the world. He fought in Minzhong and captured Kuaiji, advancing with great momentum and defeating the Chu army. Then, he fought against the imperial army without stopping. In just half a month, he defeated the entire 200,000-man imperial army with a thunderous force! Such a brilliant record is not something that ordinary people can have. Now, Han Xin's reputation has long spread across the country. Looking at the world, he is a well-deserved first-class general.

Even the princes who ruled their own territories had heard of Han Xin's great reputation. Han Xin's reputation was so loud, but in front of him, except for Gao Yao, most people seemed to be trembling with fear, and they didn't even dare to breathe. After all, Han Xin's strength and achievements were there, and anyone would be in awe.

Not to mention that they were just servants who were responsible for serving tea and water in the mansion. They were simply insignificant in front of Han Xin. So when this servant dared to persuade Han Xin, Han Xin couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He couldn't help but wonder, is this person trying to show himself in this way so as to get his attention?

After all, this is not modern society, and people's behavior and ideas are very different from those in modern society. In ancient times, people had a strict distinction between identity and status, and their words and deeds were constrained by various rules and etiquette. Unlike in modern society, people tend to show themselves as much as possible, and even resort to flattery and other means to compete for attention and benefits.

In ancient times, one’s status was considered when answering questions, especially when facing superiors or elders, and one had to pay more attention to words and attitude. This was even more true when giving advice, which not only required a corresponding status, but also the occasion and timing.

In simple terms, if one wanted to persuade a great general like Han Xin, he had to be at least a captain of a thousand men in the army. Ordinary soldiers had no right to persuade because it was considered an act of usurpation.
