Why did Tang gaozu kill Huang Xie, who was an official and loyal to Chu with him?

There is such a group of people in history, although they did not gain prestige and wealth through military exploits like those generals who beat and killed fiercely. They only rely on their rich knowledge to produce different views and things from ordinary people, and then use the wisdom and logic in their heads and the eloquence in their mouths to achieve their goals when the country is in crisis, thus successfully completing the tasks assigned by the monarch. They are Tang Ju, Yan Zi, Zou Ji and Zhao Sheng. And Huang Xie, which we are going to talk about in detail today.

Huang Xie is a native of Chu, obsessed with the customs of Chu. Unfortunately, his father's education made him worry that his motherland would no longer exist, and he was unable to see people starving in the street, so he left home early and went to various places to acquire knowledge and explore suitable methods to save the country. In his eyes, he is ahead of the times, and whether the country is rich or not is the same as the monarch and the broad masses of the people, which makes him always sad and serious about his family after marriage.

When Huang Xie returned to Chu, Chu was already weak. He told Chuchu how to adjust their response measures according to the changes in the six countries. The monarch was very happy after hearing this. Because of his wisdom and eloquence, he left Huang Xie in North Korea. At this time, Chu, Korea and Wei San, all of the six countries, recently fought with Tian Lei of Qin, and all three countries finally failed and fled. In order to divert attention, Han and Wei listened to Qin's orders and planned to fight against Chu. When Chu heard the news, he panicked and found Huang Xie. Huang Xie was in no hurry. He has thought of a way to deal with this matter.

Huang Xie told Qin that if you want to fight Chu, even if Qin has a good chance of winning, it will be unable to cope with other countries' attacks in a short period of time, so Qin is at stake. After listening to this, Qin canceled his plan to attack Chu. However, the condition is to "imprison" the king of Chu in the State of Qin, and Huang Xie agreed to the condition of Qin and stayed with the king of Chu in the State of Qin.

After Chu's death, the prince needed to return to China to succeed him, but Qin always shirked this matter. Huang Xie was worried about the civil strife in the Chu Parliament because of the throne, which gave Qin an opportunity. He bravely helped the prince return to Chu. When Qin Guo Jun knew about it, he wanted to end Huang Xie's life with a sword. Huang Xie said that after the king of Qin knew about this, he would never make friends with Qin again, so Qin went easy on him and let him go.

The newly succeeded prince was King Gaolie of Chu, and Huang Xie was respected by him and became the prime minister of Chu. Since then, Huang Xie has had a large number of counselors. He had a good relationship with Zhao Zhao Sheng, so he helped Zhao win the pursuit of Qin and defeated Lu.

Later, Huang Xie had a great influence in the DPRK, and Tang gaozu hated his guts. Shortly after the death of Chu Gaolie, Huang Xie was assassinated by Tang gaozu.
