How to reconcile the two? After Lian Po was dissatisfied with Lin Xiangru's meritorious service, he was also very polite to Lian Po. Once again, Lin Xiangru went out on business and happened to meet two carriages in the alley. Lian Po ordered the groom to drive to the middle of the road, not wanting Lin Xiangru to get there, and planned to say a word to Lin Xiangru again. Lin Xiangru ordered the groom to turn away, unwilling to confront Lian Po.
Lin Xiangru's actions made his public feel wronged for him-you are above Lian Po, so why should you be afraid of him? Lin Xiangru laughed after hearing this, and said to them, Who is worse, Qin Wang or Lian Po? Everyone responded in succession, of course, the king of Qin was fierce! I didn't expect Lin Xiangru to say, I'm not even afraid of the king of Qin. How can I be afraid of General Lian Po? But if I fight with General Lian Po, Zhao will be affected, and even civil strife will occur. Wouldn't it be that the king of Qin benefited the most?
And this passage of Lin Xiangru was repeated to Lian Po by a willing heart, which made the old general who had been running around for Zhao all his life feel deeply guilty. He is a belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he is already a villain. He shouldn't let the country have a crisis in order to fight for breath, so he ordered his men to take Vitex negundo, carry Vitex negundo on their backs and go to Lin Xiangru's house to confess their sins. When Lian Po, who pleaded guilty, came over, Lin Xiangru went out to meet him, saying that he didn't take it to heart, and his tolerance was admirable. The two became friends of life and death, and decided that Qi Xin would work together to defend Zhao.
And their reconciliation has become a popular saying, which is also the origin of the idiom "offer a humble apology".
Why they can reconcile and why they can reconcile is actually the way of life between two gentlemen. Lian Po was aboveboard all his life, disdainful of trifles, upright, and never allowed himself to be sorry for others. Lin Xiangru's practice is undoubtedly forbearing him, so Lian Po will naturally treat Lin Xiangru with a gentleman. Therefore, their loyalty and integrity are the premise to solve their contradictions.
