南越 / Nanyue

南越 / Nanyue enters the wiki through Hanji 170 part 1 as one of the outside destinations 朱家 says 季布 might flee to if 刘邦 presses him too hard. The argument pairs Nanyue with 匈奴 to show that talented defeated officers could strengthen external or frontier rivals if the new 西汉 regime handled them vindictively.

For this source, Nanyue is a strategic outside option rather than the subject of an independent narrative. Its role is to make 旧敌忠义重释 pragmatic: pardon and absorption are safer than driving capable fugitives toward powers beyond immediate Han control.
