Chen Ping, as the top strategist of the early Han Dynasty, once said to himself: I have many conspiracies, which is forbidden by the Taoists. My world is ruined, and it cannot be revived in the end, and I have many evils.
It can be seen from this sentence that Chen Ping has a clear understanding of himself, and later generations have also regarded him as a conspiracy poisoner, probably because the means used to play with people's hearts are used too much, which will attract envy.
But Chen Ping's self-analysis also has a taste of being blunt. At that time, the world was in chaos, the masses were fighting, and some alienation tricks that the soldiers were not tired of, were not unseemly things.
If the lower limit is too low, it is naturally a different matter.
That year, Liu Bang was surrounded by Xiang Yu in Xingyang and could not get out. Chen Ping took advantage of the darkness to let two thousand women out of the East Gate of Xingyang, and he and Lao Liu turned their heads and fled from the West Gate.
Do you have any doubts, what can these two thousand women do? Let's try to make up for it, like a wolf-like Chu Jun, seeing a group of women running across from the opposite side, what will they do except Fa Meng?
Chen Ping's hand can be described as poisonous. If you change to Zhang Liang or Han Xin, even the smartest brain melon can't imagine such a brilliant plan.
Sima Qian said in the "Records of History": His calculations are secret, and the world cannot hear about them. From this we can see that there are still many poisonous points of Comrade Chen, but they are just unknown.
When Chen Ping was a teenager, his family was poor, he lived with his brother and sister-in-law, and although he lived a rough and light meal, he grew tall and strong, a table of talents.
He is good at reading, idle all day, does not work in the field, and often goes out to study, which makes the family, which is not rich, make it worse. The sister-in-law could not see it, complained twice, and was taken out of the house by her brother Hugh.
When Chen Ping reached the age of marriage, he could not marry his daughter-in-law because his family was poor. The ladies of the rich families did not look up to him, and the girls of the poor families did not look up to him, so they became old bachelors.
People were thinking poorly, and at this time, Chen Ping's fierceness was revealed.
Zhang Dahu, a fellow villager, had a widowed daughter who married five husbands, but all of them were short-lived ghosts, and they were the lives of Kefu, and no one dared to marry.
Chen Ping saw the opportunity and married the Daughter of the Zhang Family back as a daughter-in-law. Moreover, the old man is also very optimistic about his granddaughter and son-in-law, and often funds some money to serve as a family.
From this section, we can see that Chen Ping has a fierce force for himself, is not afraid of death, and at the same time is good at drilling camps for life, and is also willing to put down his face.
As we all know, money is a hero's guts, Chen Ping's life is rich, the waist bar is naturally hard, and it gradually becomes famous in the township.
Later, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang revolted, the world was in chaos, as a boy with lofty ideals, he bid farewell to his brother and threw himself into the torrent of chaos to seek a future.
At first, Chen Ping worked for a while in Wei Wang's place, but because he could not be reused and was ostracized, he ran to Xiang Yu's tent to mix up his life.
But Xiang Yu's virtues are also clear to everyone, unable to retain talents, because of a little difference, Chen Ping sealed the gold seal, and then hurriedly ran away and defected to Liu Bang.
Here is a special mention of the gold hanging seal. Chen Ping was able to return the original gold given by Xiang Yu, indicating that he had great ambitions and was not a particularly wealth-loving person.
When he joined the Han Army, Chen Ping's magnificent life quietly began. The first thing to face is factional struggle.
As a foreigner serving the second lord, Liu Bang gave him a lieutenant as soon as he struck, and he also held the position of supervising the army.
Lao Liu's hand was not at ease with the gang of brothers in Pei County, and deliberately sent an outsider to act as a third-party supervisor to prevent the tail from falling off and guarding himself.
And how could Zhou Bo, Dou Bao and others tolerate a new person riding on his head. They all complained about Chen Ping's complaint, saying that he was a bribe-taking and capricious villain, and at the same time led to the case of Chen Ping's sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law robbery incident should not be true, the uncle and sister-in-law have had a conflict. Most of the rumors that came out were because Chen Ping was handsome and single for a long time, and was choreographed by idle people in the village to make up some stories for fun.
However, this kind of thing is not clear, Chen Ping is also very bare, and he has not explained too much. And bluntly said Liu Bang, if you can use it, you can stay, you can't use my roll to cover the roll and go home.
In this section, we can also see that Chen Ping has a rough side.
As far as Chu and Han were fighting for dominance, he used all kinds of conspiracies and tricks to break up the Xiangyu clique and help Liu Bang gain the world, and his credit was very great.
However, compared with those upright conspiracies, the conspiracies that play with people's hearts are not elegant and upright in the eyes of the world, and even Chen Ping himself thinks that it hurts Tianhe. From the time he married the daughter of Zhang Dahu's family, he had already entered the side.
However, those who play conspiracies must be good at drilling camps. When Liu Bang died, Chen Ping immediately hugged Lü Hou's thigh, and his life was moist and moist, and he smoothly sat in the position of Chancellor.
Later, when Lü Hou returned to heaven, he also came up with a plan, united with Zhou Bo to destroy the Lü clan, and returned the world to the Liu family, which can be described as turning clouds and rain, smiling and proud.
Throughout Chen Ping's life, the experience of his youth has branded his character, although there are many conspiracies, but he is also a person who lives very clearly. However, in a chaotic world, if you can achieve something, you will not waste this life. As for the posthumous affairs, they can only be left to posterity to comment.
