Information on Lin Xiangru and Lian Po

Lin Xiangru (date of birth and death unknown), a native of Xiangru Village, Quyang County, Baoding City, was a famous politician and diplomat of Zhao during the Warring States Period.

Lin Xiangru was the official's son, Miao Xian. When Zhao Huiwen was king, Qin Zhao wrote to the king of Zhao, willing to exchange fifteen cities for "harmony". Lin Xiangru was ordered to take "money" to the State of Qin. He argued and responded tactfully, and finally returned to Zhao intact.

Second, Lian Po.

Lian Po (former 327~ former 243), born in Hongzhong Mountain (now Xingyi Town, Dingzhou City, Hebei Province), was born in Lian. At the end of the Warring States Period, Zhao was a famous soldier, and he was also called "Four Famous Soldiers of the Warring States Period" with Bai Qi, Wang Jian and Li Mu.

In the thirty-second year of Zhou Nanwang (283 BC), he led a crusade against Qi, won a great victory, seized Jin Yang and was named Shangqing. Brave and good at fighting, he has repeatedly made meritorious military service and is famous as a vassal.

Lian Po offered a humble apology to Lin Xiangru:

After Mianchi meeting, Lin Xiangru was named Shangqing for his great contribution, ranking above Lian Po. Lian Po thinks he is a general of Zhao, and he has made great contributions in the field, while Lin Xiangru just talks eloquently and has made some contributions, but his position is above himself, and Lian Po is ashamed. And threatened to humiliate him when he met Mr. Xiang.

Hearing this, Lin Xiangru refused to see him. Every time I go to court, I often say that I am sick, and I don't want to compete with Lian Po for priority. The reason why Lin Xiangru is so forbearing is to put the troubles of the country ahead and personal grievances behind. Lin Xiangru's words reached the ears of Lian Po.

Lin Xiangru put national interests first, and the spirit of humility touched Lian Po, so he personally went to Lin Xiangru's house to offer a humble apology. He took off his shirt, put Vitex negundo on his back and went to Lin Xiangru's house to offer a humble apology. From then on, they became good friends and defended Zhao together.
