Peace Between Qin and Zhao

In 309 BC, Meng Yao, a beloved concubine of King Wuling of Zhao, gave birth to two sons. Before the elder was old enough to wear a child's cap, he died young. The younger was named He, and would become King Huiwen of Zhao. The rulers of the realm were vying for supremacy, and distinguished ministers such as Lin Xiangru and Lian Po entered government service. Qin preyed on the weaker states, leaving people across the land fearful for their lives. The Six Kingdoms formed an alliance in search of a way to survive.

This is a history-themed ensemble novel written in a script-like style. It respects history, but certain events have been adapted, so please don't get hung up on any particular historical detail.

To avoid the difficulty of reading a novel written entirely in classical Chinese, and because the author's command of it is limited, the dialogue uses a blend of classical and modern language.

One more heads-up: this novel leans toward a script format. Character expressions, actions, and perspectives are brief and appear mostly in the narration, unlike typical novels that focus on detailed descriptions.

If it's not to your taste, please just move on. Don't curse the author, okay? I'm sensitive. Thanks!
