In 283 B.C., Lianpo was defeated by the Qi army and showed his head among the princes. Later, Lin Xiangru got the favor of the king of Zhao because of he Shibi, which angered the honest and upright people who worked hard on the battlefield. Lin Xiangru not only settled the contradiction, but also let Lianpo compromise. This period of history has become an eternal story. In the following years, Lian Po and Lin Xiangru won several battles hand in hand, which made Zhao Guoneng famous. But these victories are easy for Zhao Kuo, who likes to talk on paper. After the war of Changping, Lianpo defeated the state of Yan. Before long, the state of Zhao took on a new leader. Lianpo was not appreciated and fled to the state of Wei. Frustrated Lian Po is still attached to Zhao. At this time, the king of Zhao also wanted to recall Lianpo and send someone to investigate. At the instigation of the wicked, the messenger came back and reported that although Lianpo was old, he had a good appetite and had a good taste. It's just that the function of intestines and stomach is not good. After a while, I went to the toilet three times. This sentence has ruined Lianpo's future. Before long, Lianpo jumped to the state of Chu, and foreign monks were not easy to read. Lianpo still could not be reused and died of depression. According to historical records, Lianpo died in Shouchun.
