Good news: I’ve become the First Emperor’s son! A hug from the Ancestral Dragon!
Bad news: My mother died in childbirth, a comet appeared in the sky, a fire broke out at the palace gate, and the diviners declared me a calamity.
Damn it!
The real problem is that the Ancestral Dragon believed them!
Ying Yi was furious! Just because a baby can’t talk, you think you can bully him?
At last, he made it to the age of five and could speak clearly. Ying Yi had no reason not to clear his name!
A calamity? That depends on who you ask.
As far as the Ancestral Dragon and the Qin dynasty were concerned, he absolutely wasn’t one!
As for the descendants of the Six Kingdoms and the aristocratic clans, Ying Yi sharpened his blade eagerly…
The descendants of the Six Kingdoms and the aristocratic clans, years later: If we’d known what kind of calamity he’d turn out to be, we should have urged the First Emperor to kill him back then.
Ying Yi, Second Emperor of Qin: Looking for death, are you?
It's well-written, but it feels like a monologue with too little interaction. The other characters seem like background figures, with almost no internal dialogue, especially the lack of warmth between the First Emperor and the protagonist. Actually, the father-son relationship trope is quite popular; the protagonist's wholehearted devotion to the First Emperor would surely resonate with him.
Overall, it's a good story. The fate of Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, is a source of deep regret for many. The protagonist firmly stands by the emperor's side and adheres to his own principles. The emperor, in turn, is open and accepting of any suggestions beneficial to the Qin Dynasty. There are no secrets between them, creating a warm and touching atmosphere. The only drawback is that the author sometimes mixes up names.
It's so well written! The protagonist stands firmly behind Zheng Ge, and I really like his mental state.
It's not bad, but why forcefully cut it in half to continue the Han Dynasty? Can't later generations call them Qin people?
It was great! I thoroughly enjoyed watching "The First Emperor Dreams of His Daughter" 👍👍👍
The idea that Hu Hai killed all his brothers and sisters and that the Qin Dynasty collapsed after three generations feels like a forced attempt at historical correction. [Smirk][smirk][smirk][smirk][smirk]
