典故 The episode this lot is named after

韓信在楚營不被重用,如明月被雲遮,後背楚投漢,終得蕭何月下追回並登壇拜將。

Han Xin (Marquis of Huaiyin) was a brilliant military strategist whose talents were completely ignored and obscured while serving Xiang Yu of Chu. Frustrated, he defected to Liu Bang of Han. Initially ignored there too (clouds obscuring the moon), his immense talent was finally recognized by Xiao He, and he was made Supreme Commander.
