At the end of the Warring States Period, the seven kingdoms collapsed, and the princes competed. The world was like a chessboard, and all living beings were pawns. In this vast and chaotic world, the Qin State quietly rose in the northwest corner, and a young boy with destiny moved to the center of history. His name was Ying Zheng.
This is the growth history of a young man - from the humiliation of life as a prostitute, to the forbearance in the Xianyang Palace, to ascending to the throne as king and commanding the world. With his cold iron fist and unparalleled talent and strategy, he created an unprecedented era of unification.
This is a majestic epic of intrigue and war - six kingdoms criss-crossing each other, heroes falling and wise men rising amid the light and shadow of swords. Lu Buwei's machinations, Wang Jian's iron blood, and Jing Ke's assassination all show the various aspects of human nature in troubled times.
This is an elegy about victory and cost - when the Great Wall is built, the roads are connected, and the country is in the pocket, tyranny and blood and tears also push the empire to the brink of destruction. The First Emperor could not foresee during his lifetime that the glory of the prosperous age he had created with his own hands would turn into fuel for the fire of troubled times.
From the tiger and wolf Qin army sweeping across Liuhe, to the death of the first emperor in the sand dunes; from Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rising up, to Chu and Han fighting for hegemony and dividing the world. This is a legend about conquest and destruction, ambition and destiny.
The eternal wind and clouds have cleared away, only the vast Qin song is whispering in the ears.
