Weighing and thinking about the two strategies, I think it is better to let the Qin state be morally inferior to us. I am willing to support Heqiao Nabaoyu to go, if the Qin State does not hand over the city, I will definitely be able to return to Zhao completely. ”

The king of Zhao sent him there. Lin Xiangru arrived in the Qin State and saw that the King of Qin had no real intention to exchange the city for the Zhao State.
