"Cough cough cough cough..." A mouthful of blood coughed out from Lin Xiangru's mouth. Looking at the wrinkled face in the bronze mirror, Lin Xiangru was stunned. Is he already so old? Time flies so fast.

Yeah. When people get old, they like to recall the past. Once upon a time, he was also a high-spirited young man. At the beginning, he was a retainer of Mu Xian and has been working for him. Fortunately, God has eyes, and Mu She recommended him as an envoy to Qin.

That was the beginning of his entry into the court, and it was also his highlight.

At that time, Lin Xiangru was only twenty years old, so he left the Qin Dynasty, fought with the Confucian scholars in Xianyang Palace, and finally lived up to the king's orders and returned the jade to Zhao. Lin Xiangru believed that just this one thing was enough to make himself famous throughout the ages and be respected and praised by future generations.

During the subsequent Mianchi talks, he saved the face of the late king, and because of this he was worshiped as a minister, ranking above all the civil and military officials in the court. However, who can understand the sadness of this?

There is also the harmonious story between generals and prime ministers, which is a story that is praised by everyone in the world. When Lin Xiangru entered the court for the first time, he overpowered Lian Po, which made Lian Po very unconvinced, so Lian Po often made trouble for Lin Xiangru after that.

The veteran general Lian Po believed that he was invincible and invincible, while Lin Xiangru was just a weak scholar who could only speak more powerfully than him. He was very dissatisfied with this, so he repeatedly said to people: "Let me see you later."

He will definitely humiliate him." After knowing this, Lin Xiangru put national affairs first, took sick leave and did not go to court, and tried not to see him. Later Lian Po learned that Lin Xiangru did this because he put national affairs first, and told Lin Xiangru

Afterwards, the two reconciled. Lin Xiangru was in charge of the internal affairs and Lian Po was in charge of the external affairs. With the cooperation of the two, Zhao's national power flourished and he became the overlord of the Central Plains.

Looking at a pulp-coated wattle placed on the table, a smile finally appeared on Lin Xiangru's old face. "The general and the prime minister will make peace, haha, the general and the prime minister will make peace..." Speaking of this, Lin Xiangru's cloudy eyes for the first time

Qingming appeared. "Come, please change my clothes. I am going to see the king." A rich voice came from Lin Xiangru's mouth, but it was the first time in such a long time that he got up and left the bed.

Under the attire of a servant, Lin Xiangru quickly put on the court clothes and prepared to set off. At this time, the old man stood upright, with no sign of illness at all. His snow-white hair was meticulously combed, and his old face was full of majesty. He was wearing court clothes.

The main colors are Zong and purple. The pattern outlined with gold thread on the clothes shows his status in the court. The jade pendant worn around his waist is made of the scraps cut by the former king from the Heshi Bi.

, this jade pendant is the greatest recognition of his past achievements.

"Prepare the car, I am going to see the king."

Today's sky is full of black clouds, gloomy, with pale lightning flashes and muffled thunder from time to time, which makes people feel depressed. The biting cold wind makes people dare not go out. In addition, because of Changping

The defeat of the battle and the countless white flags hanging in the wind outside people's homes made the city of Handan look particularly desolate at this time.

In the palace of King Zhao, King Zhao was warming himself by the fire and admiring Mei Ji's gorgeous dance. Suddenly, Mi Xian, the leader of the family, came out and said, "Your Majesty, Lin Qing wants to see you." Upon hearing this, King Zhao hurriedly waved away the dancing girl and said

: "Qing Lin? Come on, it's cold outside. Please invite Qing Lin in." He wanted to go out in person, but due to etiquette he had to let the supervisor, Miuxian, greet him as a way of showing respect for the veteran minister. Miu

After hearing this, Xian bowed and slowly retreated.

Looking at the minister in front of him, who was much older than himself, Muxian was slightly in a daze: "You are old." It was a very common sentence, but it contained a meaning that people who were not involved in it could not understand.

I remember that it was almost thirty years ago that I recommended Lin Xiangru to the Zhao Palace. Recommending Lin Xiangru was the proudest thing in Mu Xian's life. Even now, every time he thinks about it, he can't help but feel an indescribable feeling.

hapiness.

Looking at his Bole, Lin Xiangru sighed and said: "Yes, he is old and useless." The two of them did not say a word on the way to see King Zhao. As soon as they met King Zhao, they met King Zhao.

Lin Xiangru hurried over and said, "Qing Lin, why are you here this time?" Looking at Zhao Wangyan who cared so much about him, Lin Xiangru's clear eyes flashed with relief: "I'm here because of this?"

Came to save the Kingdom of Zhao."

Hearing this, the whole hall was silent. After a while, Zhao Wangyan finally said: "What do you mean by Lin Qing's words?" Lin Xiangru bowed and raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, Changping was defeated, and Qin general Bai Qikeng killed me.

Zhao's entire army of 400,000 has shaken the foundation of our country."

"Wars are raging now. Not only the 200,000 troops led by Wang Jian, but also the Yan State in the north and the Qi State in the east are all trying to dig a piece of flesh out of Zhao State at this time. I predict that the Qin State will eventually retreat this time. However,

After Qin retreats, it will be a really difficult period for our country, Zhao. Here, I will offer you the last plan for our country!" Looking at Lin Xiangru's determined expression, it was as if he was arranging his own funeral arrangements.

Lin Xiangru ignored the reactions of King Zhao and Mu Xian and continued to talk to himself: "After Wang Jian is defeated, your Majesty will ask General Lian to continue stationing at the old pass to prevent the Qin army from attacking. After that, please ask General Le Yi to attack Yan as quickly as possible."

, Qi and the two kingdoms to frighten the young people around them."

"Although our great Zhao was defeated by Qin in Changping, the subsequent great victories will definitely deter these countries that are ready to make moves. Coupled with the threat of Qin in the west, our great Zhao should form an alliance with Han and Wei at this time.

Recreate the situation of the time when the three Jins were integrated into one."

"Your Majesty, please be careful. If Qin forces Yan to attack Zhao, we, Zhao, will not be able to take the lead in allying with Han and Wei! If the three Jins ally themselves, Liang Chu in the south and Qi Xing in the east will form an alliance. The three Jins are located in the Central Plains and are located in the fourth battle.

In this land, the enemy and the alliance are more than enough but unable to fight against the world! The alliance of the three Jins, Qin and Yan's participation in the war is the basis, and Liang and Chu's rebellion is a necessity."

"May I ask Qing Lin, how did Liang and Chu turn against each other?" Wang Zhao said. Lin Xiangru asked solemnly: "Is your Majesty willing to give up He's Bi?" King Zhao didn't even think about it: "If a piece of jade can help me, Zhao, to return to heaven, will it be possible?"

Why can't you abandon it?" Lin Xiangru smiled happily after hearing this.

"The King of Liang loves beautiful jade, but he has been spying on the He's Bi for a long time and cannot find it. The King can use the He's Bi as a bait to bribe the King of Chu to form an alliance with him. At this time, he secretly sent someone to steal the jade and offer it to the King of Liang. The King of Liang is crazy about jade.

He will not be willing to return it to Chu. The King of Chu is very happy to have great achievements, and he will never give up after being insulted. At this time, the two countries of Liang and Chu will definitely turn against each other, and the danger in the south will be resolved."

"So, what will happen to Qixing in the east?" King Zhao continued to ask. Lin Xiangru smiled and said: "Qi is weak, and the king is also a dog guarding the city. After the victory over Yan, the king immediately ordered General Le Yi

If we station ourselves in Yangjin and spread rumors about attacking Qi, then Qi will definitely not send troops to help Yan. If Qi does not move, Xingguo will not dare to act rashly."

"The danger in the east and south has been resolved. We, Zhao, can rest assured to ally with Han and Wei. If Yan and Qin are in an alliance during the situation, the king will immediately ask General Le Yi to attack Qi. In the situation, Yan will be the main battlefield and the fate of the country will be the decision.

The bet is to unite Han and Wei to fight Qin. If Yan is willing to reconcile, they can counterattack Qin's army, led by Zhao, and unite Han, Wei, Yan, Yu, and Xing to attack Qi in the east.

If the capital is Linzi and the Han Valley of Qin is defeated in the west, then the foundation of our Zhao Dynasty will be established for thousands of generations!"

When Lin Xiangru said this, his eyes kept shining, his face flushed, he looked particularly excited, and even his waist couldn't help but straighten a lot. He really wanted to explain the plan in detail, but unfortunately he didn't have much time. Lin Xiangru knew that he was now in a state of recovery.

He might die soon. He wanted to go home and tell his children some things.

Lin Xiangru believed that even if he was gone, the civil and military officials of Zhao State would complete the subsequent content based on the outline he listed.

Seeing that Lin Xiangru didn't speak, King Zhao hurriedly said: "Okay, I know, so just follow what Lin Qing said." After hearing this, Lin Xiangru smiled slightly, bowed and said, "Okay, that's it, I'll leave." After saying that, he turned and left, but

Before he could even take two steps, he fell to the road. With the sound of a broken jade pendant, Lin Xiangru struggled on the ground twice and never got up again.

"Qing Lin, Qing Lin! Someone is coming, someone is coming quickly!" King Zhao and Muxian rushed forward to help Lin Xiangru up, shouting loudly to the guards waiting outside.
