Although Sean is weak, he is brilliant. After he defected to Liu Bang, he advised him and made indelible contributions to the establishment of the Han Dynasty.
After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Sean made great contributions to the consolidation of the Han Dynasty and was named Liu Hou. But what is his fate? There has been no conclusion. Some people say that he believes that Huang Lao resigned voluntarily and wanted to become an immortal. Some people say that he lived in the office and died well.
It's a long story. It took six years for Chu and Han to compete for the throne, and Liu Bang acceded to the throne. In order to consolidate their position, they successively killed Han Xin, Ying Bu and Peng Yue who made great contributions to the establishment of the Han Dynasty. Sean is chilling. He is associated with the tragic ending of this literary school in history and the prosperity of Fan Li. Deeply understand the truth that "the enemy country is broken and the counselor is dead". Afraid that Han Xin's fate would fall on him, he resigned and left. Liu Bang kept him, but Sean made up his mind, took the crown and went to Baiyun Mountain to cultivate immortality. The author of this statement is based on the records in Historical Records: A Family Living in Hou Dynasty. Later novels and plays also continued this theory, such as Sean Ci Chao, a Beijing opera, which is the representative work of this theory.
Another way of saying this is that Sean died a fair death. At the beginning of the founding of the Han Dynasty, most of the princes with different surnames were eliminated and the national life was on the right track, but a storm was brewing in the imperial court. Liu Bang dotes on Mrs. Qi, knowing her ambition. In order to abolish (Lv Hou) and establish (Qi) as the Crown Prince, hundreds of officials from the civil and military forces in the Qing Dynasty rose up and attacked it, thinking it was inappropriate. But Liu Bang made up his mind not to listen to the dissuasion of ministers. Seeing that the prince was about to be deprived, Lv Hou was anxious to ask his younger brother Lv Ze to turn to Sean, a "think tank". Sean believes that the abolition of the Prince is of great importance and cannot be easily established. In the early Han dynasty, it was very likely that a prince would be established after everything was abandoned. Only by letting nature take its course can we stabilize the world and protect the country. Based on this, Sean said to Lv Ze: Your words can hardly protect the prince. Now there are four old people, who are called "four noble people". They are all over 80 years old and are respected by people. Now they don't take the title of the Han Dynasty and hide in the mountains. The emperor invited them again and again; If the prince condescends to ask the "Four Nobles" to come down the mountain to help, it will certainly help consolidate the position of the prince. The "Four Nobles" were really moved by the sincerity of the prince and promised to go down the mountain to help. Liu Bang held a victory banquet against Ying Bu, and four old people entered the palace with the Prince. Liu bang was surprised to ask his name, only to know that these four strange-looking old people were hermits he had invited many times. The four old men said: the prince is kind and filial, respects the virtuous and loves the scholars, and everyone in the world is willing to work for the prince. Liu Bang saw that he was already beside the Prince, and it was obvious that the Prince was full-fledged. I was afraid that it would be difficult to shake him, so I gave up the idea of Prince Liyi. Lv Hou is very grateful to Sean. After Liu Bang's death, he urged Sean to end his schooling and return to North Korea to be an official. Sean listened to the advice and returned to North Korea to be an official. In the first year of Hui Di, Sean died of illness and posthumous title Wenchenghou died a fair death.
There are different opinions about the fate of Sean, but from a historical point of view, Sean's statement that "serve as an official and die a fair death" is more accurate.
