Extended data

Zhao's death is very strange, and there is no clear record about Zhao's death in historical materials. Zhao Yan, the son of Zhao Haoqi, was the monarch of Zhao in the Warring States Period, and his reigns were 245 BC and 236 BC respectively.

In 245 BC, Zhao Haoqi Cheng Xiao died and Zhao Yan succeeded to the throne. In 236 BC, Zhao Haoqi sent troops to attack Yan and seized raccoon city, the state of Yan. In the same year, Mou Xiang died, and Prince Zhao ascended the throne, known as Zhao in history. Zhao Shu and Li Mu were originally acclaimed as princes, but Zhao Yan listened to Guo Kai's encouragement and changed his son's son into a prince.
