In the seventh year of King Xian of Zhou, Duke Xian of Qin died, and his son, Duke Xiao, took the throne.
At this time, Qin was in dire straits, its lands shattered and its future hanging by a thread.
At home: short on troops and resources, with a young ruler whose authority was questioned and powerful clans acting with impunity.
Abroad: the other states looked down on Qin, refused to form alliances with it, treated it as a barbarian land, and shut it out.
So Duke Xiao issued a decree throughout the state: "Any guest or minister who can devise an extraordinary plan to strengthen Qin will be granted high office and a share of land!"
When Wei Yang heard of the decree, he traveled west to Qin.
Thus began the meeting of ruler and minister. They entrusted the fate of the state to each other and shared every hardship for more than twenty years, in life and in death.
The Duke of Qin: "For as long as I live, I will never let you down!"
Lord Shang: "To have met you in life, what more could I ask for in death?"
In short, this is the story of a ruler and his minister supporting each other on the long road to enriching the state and strengthening its armies.
From weak Qin to powerful Qin, rulers, ministers, generals, and the tumult of the Warring States: let me tell it all in time...
PS: This story begins with Wei Yang's arrival in Qin. It tells of Qin's rise from weakness to strength, along with the stories of King Hui of Wei, King Wei of Qi, Zou Ji, Sun Bin, and a host of other figures from the early Warring States period. Find the romance in the histories, and seek the truth in the retellings. This is a work of imaginative fiction, so please don't take it too seriously if it differs from the historical record!
Another PS: I've seen some readers asking if this story has a bad ending. All I can say is that it isn't a bad ending, but it isn't a happy ending in the usual sense, either. I don't want to write about a Wei Yang who is consumed only by romantic love. I want to write about the Lord Shang of the history books, who was willing to give everything for Qin and for his ideals. So I really don't consider this a bad ending.

The writing style is really good, but what I like most is the detailed description of the situation of various countries in the pre-Qin period and the delicate description of the characters! Love it! ! Come on!
The author's writing style is really good, but what attracts me most is the detailed description of the situation of various countries in the pre-Qin period and the detailed description of historical figures! ! Love it! ! Come on, author! ! !
I can't help but think about how Wei Yang was trapped by his own reforms and had no choice but to die = =
But is this considered benevolence and benevolence?
Finally, I have another fanfic of this pair, but this kind of historical fanfic can never escape the destined tragic ending. Is this a historical fanfic or a fanfic of Da Qinyi? I really hope it is a historical fanfic. I have also read another one also called Daqin Empire. I don't know why. I can't find it anymore. The Wei Yang in there is a man with rich clothes and wide sleeves. He is intolerant and fierce, and he is determined to have his own way. If Mr. Sun's Wei Yang is the pines and cypresses on the green mountain, that Wei Yang is the storm and flames that sweep over the high hills. I think that Wei Yang is closer to the reality of history.
I'm just here to complain about the speed of bathing!
Fifteen minutes is so fast, isn't it?
It's convenient and quick for boys to take a shower, right?
Even with a flat figure, bathing is convenient and quick!
1. Wei is destined to have a hard time unifying China because it is surrounded by enemies from both sides and has enclaves. . 2. Is J Jingjian just an errand boy who serves as a contrast to King Qin's wisdom and martial prowess? 3. The background becomes more grand!
Mr. Deng is very powerful! Shang Yang is also very powerful! It has advanced the times! . . . Most people like this are tragic, sigh
Because he was jealous of the talents of his fellow junior Sun Bin, he set a trap to make Wei Hou Tom mistakenly think that Sun Bin was having an affair with the state of Qi.
Wrong thinking
... I always feel that it is difficult for Qin to produce a big king because it is... Too poor ORZ
Even if there were, I'm afraid it would be difficult to be like the aristocratic families of the Five Kingdoms of Guandong, so that they could continue to grow stronger from generation to generation until the three families were divided into Jin and the three Huan usurped the level of Lu...
Isn't anyone cute about Yu Yi × Du Zhi! 2333
