This book takes the life of Empress Dowager Mi Yue of Qin Xuan as the axis and connects the magnificent history of the power change, diplomatic competition and institutional innovation of the Qin Dynasty in the middle of the Warring States Period. Focusing on her transition from a concubine in the Chu palace to a concubine in the Qin palace, and then to the queen mother in the imperial court, it explores her complex human nature and political wisdom in the cracks of patriarchal politics, balancing the court with wisdom, consolidating the royal power with iron-blooded means, and promoting Qin's eastward expansion with foresight. It not only shows her struggle and transformation as a woman in the field of power, but also highlights the deep connection between her personal destiny and the rise of the Qin State. It breaks the one-sided narrative of "beauty is a disaster" or the "perfect heroine" and restores the image of a historical figure who combines motherhood, ambition and political structure, and reveals the historical logic of mutual success between individuals and the times under the law of "the weak and the strong" during the Warring States Period.
