Lian Po is the general and Xiangru is the prime minister. Lian Poji was in charge of Xiangru, and he humiliated Xiangru many times. Xiangru put the interests of the country first and tolerated them again and again. Hou Lian regretted deeply and went to Xiangru to plead guilty. He reconciled with Xiangru and became friends of life and death. It was passed down as a good story in later generations.

Extended information:
The story of General Xianghe who sacrificed his life for the country is during the Warring States Period. Lin Xiangru, a native of the State of Zhao, was ordered to go to the State of Qin. He fulfilled his mission and returned the jade to Zhao intact. Therefore, he was made a doctor; he also accompanied King Zhao to the Mianchi Meeting organized by King Qin to protect King Zhao from the insult of King Qin. In recognition of Lin Xiangru's contribution, King Zhao made Lin Xiangru a minister. The veteran general Lian Po believed that he was invincible and invincible, but Lin Xiangru was just a weak scholar who only had more power than his words. Lian Po was very dissatisfied with this, so he repeatedly said to people: "Let me let you go from now on." If I see him, I will definitely humiliate him."
When Lin Xiangru found out about this, he took state affairs first and took sick leave to avoid going to court and tried not to see him. Later, Lian Po learned that Lin Xiangru acted in such a way because he was concerned about national affairs, so he apologized to Lin Xiangru for shouldering a thorn. After that, the two got along well and began to do their best to assist King Zhao in governing the country.
