In the flames of the Warring States period at the end of the Warring States period, a life destined to subvert the world was born in Handan, State of Zhao. Ying Zheng, the son of a proton of the Qin State, struggled to survive in the discrimination and bullying of the Zhao State since he was a child, and suffered from the hardships of the world. With a precise vision, businessman Lu Buwei regarded his father Yiren as a "rare commodity to live in" and invested all his money to help him return to the Qin Dynasty to fight for the throne, which also changed the fate of Ying Zheng. However, returning to the Qin Dynasty was not the end. After the thirteen-year-old Ying Zheng came to the throne, his power fell into the hands of his "father" Lu Buwei and his mother Zhao Ji. He also faced the stormy waves of the Lao Ai rebellion.
The young King Qin, who endured the humiliation and heavy burden, accumulated strength in silence, and finally took over the throne with iron-blooded tactics to sweep away the obstacles, tear apart Lao Ai, depose Lu Buwei, and firmly hold the power in his hands. With the ambition to unify the world, he relied on Li Si, Wang Jian and other virtuous ministers and generals to make close contacts at a distance. In ten years, he destroyed the six kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan and Qi one after another like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. He established the first unified dynasty in Chinese history - the Qin Dynasty, calling himself the "First Emperor".
His writings were in the same text, his chariots were in the same track, he unified weights and measures, and established the system of counties and counties, which laid the foundation for the two thousand years of Chinese civilization. He attacked the Xiongnu in the north, built the Great Wall, and conquered Baiyue in the south, laying the foundation for the territory of China. However, behind the glory are the controversies of harsh punishments, burning books and humiliating Confucian scholars, the heavy labor of Afang Palace and Lishan Mausoleum, and the persistent pursuit of immortality. The gears of fate quietly turned in the sand dunes. The First Emperor passed away. Zhao Gao and Li Si tampered with the imperial edicts and supported the mediocre Hu Hai. The great empire quickly slid into the abyss amid tyranny and treachery.
