1. Zhang Liang
From a former Korean nobleman to the one who wanted to assassinate Qin Shihuang after losing all his wealth, to the one who met Liu Bang and helped Liu Bang win the world and establish the Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang's life was full of ups and downs. Because of the fall of South Korea, the decline of Zhang Jia, his hatred for Qin Shihuang and the state of Qin reached the acme, and he planned an assassination event. Although it was still the same failure as Jing Ke's assassination of Qin, it was very able to show Zhang Liang's lifelong pursuit of overthrowing the state of Qin.
Zhang Liang may also want to restore his country, but with the development of time and things, rebuilding South Korea has become an impossible thing for him. He tried his best to give advice for Liu Bang. With his wisdom and stratagem, he let Liu Bang out of danger and once again dissuaded Liu Bang from going in the wrong direction. Zhang Liang was Liu Bang's great hero in establishing the Han Dynasty It's absolutely out of reach.
2. Xiao He
Similarly, Liu Bang can't win by relying on Zhang Liang alone. He also has a right-hand assistant, Xiao He, who is not in front of the public. In Liu Bang's team, Xiao He is mainly responsible for logistics. Although it seems that there is no military strength, it is also very important. After all, it is like a big family. If the person who is responsible for making money and maintaining the source of income goes out and there is no one in the family to manage it, what is the significance of making more money?
Xiao He is just like this. He stayed in Guanzhong and built Guanzhong into a solid backing for Liu Bang. When Liu Bang was fighting outside, he didn't need to worry about food, grass and military pay, so he could fight with Xiang Yu wholeheartedly. Of course, Liu Bang may not have the ability to fight. The key is to rely on Han Xin. But Liu Bang has such talents as Xiao He, which is also the very important reason why he can win.
3. Why isn't Zhang Liang the prime minister
So back to the theme, why didn't Zhang Liang become the prime minister? From the above, we can see that Zhang Liang's main role is to plan and give ideas. Xiao He's mainly in logistics management and politics. As the prime minister, he has great responsibility and needs to assist the emperor in governing the country. In this aspect, Zhang Liang really can't speak up. He can't compare with Xiao He, Xiao he formulated the law and advocated the rule of inaction, which were the key reasons for the development of the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Liang may be able to do these places, but he must not do better than Xiao He, and he himself has no intention to do it. Maybe he is not attached to Da Yecheng, or he is avoiding trouble. He gradually fades out of the court and successfully ends his life
