Pei Gong stationed his troop at Bashang and didn’t have a chance to meet with Xiang Yu.

Fan Zeng counseled Xiang Yu: “When Pei Gong was at Shandong, he was greedy for valuables and preyed on pretty women. Now that he entered the Pass, he didn’t plunder precious things and had spared the women. It just shows his ambition is well beyond that small place.”

At the time, Zhang Liang was serving at Pei Gong. Xiang Bo galloped to Pei Gong’s camp at night to meet with Zhang Liang privately. Xiang Bo told Zhang Liang everything and asked Zhang Liang to leave with him and said: “Don’t die with them needlessly!”

Pei Gong was speechless, and then he said: “Of course it’s no match. What should I do now?”

Pei Gong toasted to Xiang Bo to wish him longevity in life and pledged linkup through marriages of their children. He said: “After entering the Pass, I have not appropriated even a tiny bit of thing. Upon registering the officials and common folks and locking up the public granaries, I have gotten things ready for the General.”

Therefore I dispatched generals to the pass to guard against bandits and contingencies.

For days I have been looking forward to the arrival of the General, and I dare not turn against him.

33

I hope you could put in words for me that I would not betray his good graces.”

Xiang Bo promised to do so and told Pei Gong: “Tomorrow morning you need to come early and express your regret to Duke Xiang personally.”

Pei Gong said: “That’ll be done.”

So, Xiang Bo returned at night. When he got to the barracks, he reported to Duke Xiang on what Pei Gong said and took that opportunity to comment: “If Pei Gong didn’t take Guanzhong, you wouldn’t have the audacity to go in, would you?

37

Now he has done you a great favor, and you are attacking him. That’s not fair.

You should treat him well instead.”

Duke Xiang undertook to do just that.

The next morning, Pei Gong went with a hundred riders to see Duke Xiang. When they arrived at Hongmen, he apologetically said: “My Honorable General! You and I collaborated to attack Qin. You fought north of the river and I battled at the south. Unexpectedly, I was successful in entering the Pass and taking over Qin. I am pleased to see you here again.

Now an inconsequential person is saying something which causes a rift between you and I.”

Duke Xiang said: “That was what your Army Assistant Administrator Cao Wushang said.

Otherwise, why would I come to be feeling this?”

On that same day, Duke Xiang asked Pei Gong to stay for drinks.

In the seating, Duke Xiang and Xiang Bo were facing east, Ya Fu was facing south (Ya Fu was Fan Zeng), Pei Gong was facing north, and Zhang Liang was facing west in serving.

Several times Fan Zeng gave Duke Xiang eye signals and raised the jade piece he was wearing to get Duke Xiang’s attention. Xiang Yu said nothing and did not respond.

Fan Zeng stood up and got outside. He summoned Xiang Zhuang over and said: “Our King is soft-hearted.

You go in and toast to wish him good health. Afterwards, you ask for permission to perform a sword dance. Then you strike Pei Gong at his seat and kill him.

If you don’t do that, you and your followers will all be taken captive by him.”

Zhuang went in to give a toast of good wishes for longevity.

When that was done, he said: “Your Highness is drinking with Pei Gong. In the army, there is nothing for entertainment. I ask for your permission to perform a sword dance.”

Duke Xiang said: “Go ahead.” Zhuang drew his sword and started dancing. Xiang Bo also drew his sword to dance as well and often he opened his arms like a bird’s wings to shield Pei Gong. Zhuang could not take a strike.

So, Zhang Liang went to the front of the barracks to see Fan Kuai.

Fan Kuai said: “How are things coming along today?”

Kuai said: “This is really urgent! Please let me in, and I’ll live or die with him.”

Kuai barged into the barracks’ door with his sword and shield.

Soldiers guarding the door with their crossed halberds blocking the entrance tried to stop him from going in. Fan Kuai rammed his way through with his shield at his side and knocked the guards to the ground. He managed to get inside. Upon lifting the curtain, he stood there facing west, and looked sternly at Duke Xiang with stand-on-end hair and over-taut, cracked eye-rims.

While holding onto the handle of the sword, Duke Xiang sat up and said: “What are you doing here?”
