Background and information of Lin Xiangru and Lian Po.
Lin Xiangru was a minister of Zhao in the Warring States Period. When Zhao Huiwen became king, he got a rare treasure jade from Chu, which Qin Guoqiang exchanged with 15 city. Lin Xiangru took the jade to the state of Qin, and went to court with the king of Qin to get it back to Zhao intact. Zhao Wang made Xiangru a doctor. In 279 BC, he followed Zhao Huiwen to Mianchi (now Mianchi West, Henan Province) to meet the king of Qin, so that the king of Zhao would not be humiliated in Qin. After returning home, he was named Shangqing for his work, ranking above Lian Po, and Lian Po was indignant. Lin Xiangru puts national security first and tolerates Lian Po. Lian Po endured an epiphany, offered a humble apology, and the two became close friends. Turn the story of Xianghe into beautiful talk.
