The Qin is tyrannical, ruling with cruelty. People are torn limb from limb or executed by being cut in half in the marketplace. The people are kept under strict control, books are burned, and scholars are buried alive. To the east, the Epang Palace is built; to the west, the Qin mausoleum is constructed. The people can barely survive, and their suffering is beyond words.
The people are like water, and the ruler is like a boat. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it.
A modern youth’s soul travels back in time into Liu Bang, returning to the age of the Qin. He raises a rebellion, toys with dynasties, and watches Xiang Yu lift a massive cauldron. But brute force and hard fighting are no match for wielding a brush and ink to shape the realm.
