According to legend, Liu Bangceng promised Han Xin not to kill him with a knife, so he stabbed Han Xin alive with a bamboo stick. However, in the legend of unofficial history, the bamboo stick is just a cover for Liu Bang. In fact, Han Xin was executed every year, and this "candlestick" was used to execute the death penalty.

In the Song Dynasty, the annual torture was once abolished, and "asking for heaven" became a court plaything.

It was this "candlestick" that was used to execute the famous Yuan Chonghuan in the late Ming Dynasty. According to legend, when Han Xin and Yuan Chonghuan were executed, it was raining red. This may be Ou Yezi's puzzled answer. If you "candlestick", there will be resentment against the country.
