As a result, Zhao Kuo was shot and killed, and hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops surrendered to Qin, but they were all killed by Qin. 450,000 people died. Then Handan, the capital of Zhao, was besieged by Qin for more than a year. Fortunately, the princes of Chu and Wei came to rescue them and they were able to relieve the siege.
Five years after the siege was lifted, King Yan listened to Li Fu's plan and said that all Zhao's strong men died in the Battle of Changping.

Lian Po’s enemy Guo Kai gave the envoy a lot of gold and asked him to speak ill of Lian Po. The envoy from the King of Zhao met Lian Po. In order to return to Zhao, Lian Po ate a bushel of rice and ten kilograms of meat in front of the envoy, put on his armor and galloped on a horse to show that he was still useful. The envoy reported back to King Zhao: "Although General Lian Po is old, he can still eat well, but he just sat with his ministers for a while, and soon he became incontinent three times." King Zhao thought that Lian Po was old, so he did not call him back.
When the King of Chu heard that Lian Po was in Wei, he secretly sent someone to greet him. Lian Po became a Chu general but had no merit. He said: "I want to use people from Zhao State." Lian Po finally died in Shouchun of Chu State (today's Shouxian County, Anhui Province).

According to "Book of Jin. Biographies. "Wen Yuan" records that Gu Kaizhi was knowledgeable and talented, witty and funny, so people liked to get close to him and even teased him.
Gu Kaizhi once wrote a "Zheng Fu" and said to people: "My Zheng Fu is comparable to Ji Kang's Qin music. Those who don't appreciate it must be because my works were abandoned after Ji Kang." "Those who can appreciate it deeply must also value the extraordinary writing of this poem." He is particularly good at painting, and his pictures are wonderful. He values ??his works very much and thinks they are unprecedented in the history of mankind. Every time Gu Kaizhi paints a portrait, he sometimes doesn't touch the eyes for several years. Asked him why, he replied: "The beauty and ugliness of the body has nothing to do with the magic and beauty of the painting itself. It is in this (eye) that portraits can be vivid and lifelike and show true expressions."
Gu Kaizhi was a regular attendant of Sanqi, adjacent to the official office of landscape poet Xie Zhan. He chanted aloud under the moonlight at night, and Xie Zhan often praised him from far away, so Gu Kaizhi worked harder and tirelessly. Xie Zhan was going to bed, so he asked someone to take his place. Gu Kaizhi didn't notice the difference and chanted all night until dawn.

However, he was ambitious and eager to learn, so the county magistrate Deng Shao asked him to study with his teacher at Taixue. Chen Shi was once wrongly accused of being a murderer by county officials and imprisoned. The disaster of imprisonment by the Central Committee of the DPRK could not be avoided. However, Chen Shi cultivated his virtues. Whether he was an official or lived in the countryside, he could always be fair, upright, and treat others peacefully. He was a role model for everyone and will be remembered. He died at home at the age of eighty-four. More than 30,000 people from all over the country came to pay their respects, and hundreds of people put on mourning clothes.
Chen Shi had six sons, among whom Chen Ji and Chen Chen were the most virtuous. Filial piety, respect for relatives, and family harmony are all respected and admired by later scholars. Chen Chen's virtue is equal to that of Chen Ji, and the three of them, father and son, are very famous. Whenever the Prime Minister's Office called for virtuous people, three people would often answer the call at the same time. People at that time regarded it as an honor. Chen Ji's son, Chen Qun, was named Changwen and had outstanding intelligence. Chen Chen's son, Chen Zhong, was named Xiaoxian. Changwen and Xiaoxian each talked about their father's achievements and virtues. They competed with each other and refused to give in. They turned to ask Chen Shi, and Chen Shi said: "Yuan Fang is difficult to be a brother, and Ji Fang is difficult to be a brother.
"It means: Ji Fang is so outstanding, it is not easy for Yuan Fang to be Ji Fang's brother; Yuan Fang is also so outstanding, and it is not easy for Ji Fang to be Yuan Fang's younger brother. In short, it is not easy for each other! Likewise! Good!
