Zhao Dan hurriedly left the palace with Yu Xin, got into the carriage and rushed towards Handan Guocheng.

If the originally somewhat critical battle situation made Zhao Dan's heart already very bad, then the news that Lin Xiangru was critically ill at this moment undoubtedly further intensified this emotion in Zhao Dan's heart.

This is an old minister who is both capable and prestigious, and is also loyal to Zhao Guo and Zhao Dan.

In this era when job-hopping is as frequent as job-hopping other companies, people like Lin Xiangru are really rare to be honest.

But it is such an old minister, but at such a critical moment, he is about to die!

The carriage galloped all the way, escorted by hundreds of Zhao court guards into Guocheng, and stopped at a mansion after another tea time.

Of course, this is Lin Xiangru's mansion, which is on the same street as the mansions of Zhao Sheng, Pingyuan Jun, Duping Juntian Dan and other ministers of the Zhao family.

However, compared to several other high-door mansions, Lin Xiangru's mansion obviously looks more restrained and quiet.

Zhao Dan stepped off the horse and walked into the gate without saying a word.

As soon as she walked into the gate of Lin Mansion, an old woman with more than a dozen men and women with mournful faces saluted Zhao Dan respectfully: "I have seen the king." ”

Zhao Dan's footsteps stopped, it was obvious that these were Lin Xiangru's wives and children, considering Lin Xiangru's age, the old woman in front should be Lin Xiangru's wife.

Zhao Dan stepped forward and comforted Mrs. Lin a few words, and then raised his head and said to the eunuch Ling Mixian, who had already arrived here in advance: "How is the situation?" ”

Mi Xian glanced at Mrs. Lin in front of Zhao Dan, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Zhao Dan understood, and after saying a few words to Mrs. Lin, he walked into the hall.

I saw Mixian whispering in Zhao Dan's ear: "According to what the palace doctor said, I'm afraid the limit is today." ”

That's right, for the sake of Lin Xiangru's condition, Zhao Dan sent all the imperial doctors of Zhao Guo to be stationed twenty-four hours a day.

It's a pity that this doesn't seem to be of any use.

Zhao Dan shook his head, and after a few seconds, he said, "And lead the way for the widow." ”

A moment later, in a bedroom with an extremely strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, Zhao Dan met Lin Xiangru, who had not seen each other for a while.

At this moment, Lin Xiangru was lying on the couch with his eyes closed, his face was extremely thin, and he was completely skinny and bone-ty.

Anyone who sees him knows that this important minister of Zhao State, who is destined to go down in history, has come to the end of his life.

There were also several medical officers of Zhao Guo beside Lin Xiangru's couch, and the medical officers saluted Zhao Dan respectfully after seeing Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan looked at the medical officer headed by him with blazing eyes: "Lin Qing still has a way to cure it?" ”

The old doctor shook his head and said, "The king atons for his sins, and the ministers really can't do it." ”

Zhao Dan's heart was gloomy, he walked to Lin Xiangru's couch, slowly knelt down, and held Lin Xiangru's hand hanging on the side of the couch.

Several medical officers retreated in good spirits, and only Mixian and Yu Xin were in the room.

Lin Xiangru was so thin that when Zhao Dan held his hand, what he was holding was a piece of bone wrapped in skin.

Zhao Dan sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Lin Qing, why abandon the widow at this time!" ”

Although Zhao Dan has only worked with this loyal Shangqing for two or three months from the time of crossing to the present, whether it is from the memory of the previous King Zhao Xiaocheng or Zhao Dan's personal experience after the crossing, it is enough to prove the importance of this Shangqing to Zhao State.

In every unit, there will be some sycophants who pat the leaders all day long, and there will always be some old scalpers who work diligently, and Lin Xiangru is such an old scalper who has been thinking hard for Zhao Guo for decades and resting until he dies!

If it weren't for Lin Xiangru's years of hard work in Zhao's internal affairs for so many years, how could Zhao have the second most powerful scene in the world today.

Such a courtier, but at such an important moment, left Zhao Dan and Zhao Guo, how could this not make Zhao Dan feel endless regrets.

If he could, Zhao Dan really hoped that Lin Xiangru could live for five more years, or even ten years!

It's a pity that even a traverser still can't fight against death.

It was at this time that perhaps Zhao Dan's voice was heard, and Lin Xiangru, who had his eyes closed, suddenly moved slightly on his face, and then slowly opened his eyes.

A few seconds later, Lin Xiangru's originally somewhat chaotic eyes began to gradually focus, and then he discovered Zhao Dan's existence: "Big, King..."

Zhao Dan was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Lin Qing, you are awake!" Widow, let the medical officer in! ”

said that Zhao Dan was about to turn around and shout, but Lin Xiangru suddenly grabbed Zhao Dan's hand: "Big, king, no, no need..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiangru coughed violently, and after a long time, the cough stopped, and he reluctantly said to Zhao Dan: "Minister... The old minister's limit has come, but、But I hope that the king will read the part and share that the old minister has done some modest efforts for Zhao and Zhao State, and listen to the old man and the old minister's words. ”

Zhao Dan took a deep breath and said to Lin Xiangru very seriously: "Lin Qing can do everything he can." ”

Lin Xiangru took a few heavy breaths, and said to Zhao Dan: "The general Lian Po, although his personality is reckless and reckless, but he is loyal and courageous. ”

Zhao Dan was stunned for a moment and didn't expect Lin Xiangru to say this, but he still nodded and said, "Lin Qing, few people know." ”

Obviously, at this time, even saying a few words is extremely difficult for Lin Xiangru.

Zhao Dan couldn't bear it when he saw this, so he said again: "Lin Qing, let's order the palace doctor to come in first." ”

Lin Xiangru shook his head, and suddenly his face quickly became rosy, and his speech became much clearer when he spoke: "The king doesn't have to worry too much, the old minister's body is like, the old minister already knows." If the king still thinks that the old minister still has some usability, let the old minister finish speaking. ”

Zhao Dan was helpless, so he could only let Lin Xiangru continue.

I saw Lin Xiangru say: "Since the three families were divided, the countries have risen together, and thirty years ago, there were three hegemons of Qin, Chu and Qi. From the perspective of the ministers, if one country is hegemonic, it will be attacked by the nations of others. If the king wins this battle, then my Zhao country will also be a hegemon. It is advisable for the king to marry the kingdoms, and to plan them slowly, and not to be impatient, so that the foundation of the previous kings will be ruined once and for all. ”

Lin Xiangru's words were very serious and sincere, not like a courtier's exhortation to the king, but a little bit of the elder's exhortation to the younger generation.

Zhao Dan also sighed secretly in his heart when he saw it, at this time, Lin Xiangru was most concerned about Zhao Guo.

Zhao Dan cleaned up his mood and said: "Don't worry about Lin Qing, the widow will follow what Lin Qing said." ”

Lin Xiangru glanced at Zhao Dan carefully, and felt that Zhao Dan didn't seem to be perfunctory, so a smile appeared on his face, and when he looked up, he happened to see Mixian standing behind Zhao Dan, so he spoke again: "Mr. Mi, but he is going to walk ahead of Mr. ”

Mixian looked at Lin Xiangru in front of him, and he was quite emotional in his heart, when Mixian recommended Lin Xiangru to King Zhao Huiwen, it was like yesterday, but he didn't expect that now this old man is going to pass away.

The corners of Mi Xian's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a reluctant smile: "Lin Qing go, Xian will follow." ”

Lin Xiangru's gaze moved slowly, and finally fell on Yu Xin's body: "Yu Qing, the general has a strong personality, if he makes a mistake in the future, please ask Yu Qing to do more." ”

Yu Xin's face was solemn, and he nodded slowly: "Lin Qing rest assured, the letter will live up to Lin Qing's trust." ”

After saying these words, Lin Xiangru's face began to turn gray, and the few traces of rosy that appeared on his cheeks began to disappear rapidly, and he wanted to continue to say something, but was stopped by Zhao Dan.

Zhao Dan gently patted Lin Xiangru's shoulder: "Lin Qing, this is enough." ”

Zhao Dan stood up and said to Mi Xian behind him: "Let Lin Qing's family come in." ”

After saying this, Zhao Dan walked out of the room with Mixian and Yu Xin.

Lin Xiangru's family, who had been waiting outside, rushed in from Zhao Dan's side, and many ministers of Zhao also rushed to hear the news, including Pingyang Jun Zhao Bao and Shangfu Lou Chang and so on.

After seeing Zhao Dan, the ministers saluted and greeted each other, and then stood in the courtyard outside the room with Zhao Dan, quietly waiting for the time to come.

After about half a cup of tea, a heart-rending cry came from the room, which made Zhao Dan, who was standing outside the room, feel a little sad in his heart.

Lin Xiangru, a famous minister of Zhao who is destined to go down in history, went after all.
