About This Novel
Why did Jing Ke fail to assassinate the King of Qin? If Jing Ke stabbed King Qin to death, how would history evolve? What role did the "Book of Remonstrance and Expulsion" play in the rapid demise of the Qin Dynasty? Why is it said that the lessons of Qin's collapse are included in the experience of Han's rise? At the Hongmen Banquet, why didn't Xiang Yu kill Liu Bang? ..."Assassination of Qin" is a blockbuster new work by Professor Li Kaiyuan, an expert on the history of Qin and Han Dynasties. From the perspective of historical research, it interprets the authenticity of the famous article "Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin" in "Historical Records".
