"Success is also Xiao He, failure is also Xiao He" comes from Historical Records Biography of Huaiyin Hou.
At the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty, there was a man named Han Xin in Huaiyin (now Jiangsu Province). He lived a lonely life when he was young and was looked down upon. Later, Han Xin defected to Xiang Yu and took part in the anti-Qin movement. He once put forward some operational suggestions to Xiang Yu, but none of them were adopted. Han Xin saw that his talents could not be put to good use, so he turned to Liu Bang.
After a long talk with Han Xin, Xiao He admired Han Xin and thought that Han Xin was a rare military genius. However, just when Xiao He decided to recommend Han Xin to Liu Bang, Han took it away.
Xiao He was worried when he learned that Han Xin had escaped. Before reporting to Liu Bang, he jumped on horseback and chased Han Xin back overnight. Thanks to Xiao He's recommendation, Liu Bang finally agreed to worship Han Xin as a general, and chose an auspicious day to hold a grand ceremony to worship the general.
After being worshipped as a general by Liu Bang, Han Xin gave full play to his military talents and made great contributions to Liu Bang's unification of the world and the establishment of the Han Dynasty. However, after Liu Bang became emperor, he became more and more uneasy about Han Xin.
First of all, Han Xin was relieved of military power and changed from "King of Qi" to "King of Chu"; Soon, Han Xin was arrested again; After the pardon, only one "Huaiyin Hou" was sealed. Han Xin lives in Chang 'an, depressed and frustrated. He was framed for rebellion and reported to Liu Bang's wife, Lv Hou.
Lv Hou wanted to get rid of Han Xin, but he was afraid that he wouldn't give in, so he consulted with Xiao He. Finally, Xiao He tricked Han Xin into the palace, and Lv Hou killed Han Xin in the bell room of Changle Palace on charges of rebellion.
According to this history, later generations derived the idiom "success is also Xiao He, failure is also Xiao He", which means that the success or failure of things is due to the same person.
