A stranger succeeded to the throne (King Zhuangxiang of Qin) and appointed Lu Buwei as prime minister to implement the New Deal. King Zhuang Xiang died of illness three years after his reign, and his 13-year-old son Ying Zheng succeeded him. Lu Buwei co-regents with the Queen Mother as "Second Father". During this period, Lu Buwei twice presided over the handover of the overall situation, stabilized the government and the opposition, and expanded the territory, and his reputation greatly increased. However, his ambiguous entanglement with the Queen Mother Zhao Ji attracted criticism from the royal family elders. Lu Buwei used extraordinary means to free himself, causing Lao Ai, a barbarian, to have an affair with Zhao Ji. Zhao Ji used the power of the regent mother to designate Lao Ai as a Marquis of Changxin, monopolized the power of the palace, and plotted a coup to seize the throne, causing the biggest scandal in the history of Qin. The young Ying Zheng teamed up with Lu Buwei to eradicate the Lao Ai rebellion in one fell swoop, deposing the Queen Mother and placing her under house arrest. Ying Zheng came into power at the age of twenty-one, and Lu Buwei summoned his disciples to write "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" to establish the royal strategy for governing the country. Ying Zheng insisted on Shang Yang's legal system and was seriously opposed to Lu Buwei's political views. Lu Buwei decided to publish the "Lu Spring and Autumn Annals", hoping to decide the strategy of governing the country through public discussion between the government and the public. King Qin Yingzheng was under tremendous pressure, and the State of Qin was once again facing a turning crisis.

Qin used Fan Ju as its prime minister and implemented a strategy of distant diplomacy and close attack; with Bai Qi as its general, it achieved a major victory in the Battle of Changping. The Six Kingdoms began to decline, and Qin established its dominance. The Qin army marched eastward, and the king and ministers of the Emperor Zhou of Luoyang greeted him in panic. In the battle of Yiyang, Qian Fu Chang Bai Qi emerged. King Wu of Qin marched into Luoyang and died violently while holding a tripod. Bai Qi led a lone brigade to venture into Yan to welcome back the hostage prince Ying Ji, and allied with Gan Mao, Wei Zhen and other generals to jointly defeat the coup of Prince Ying Li to seize the throne and support Ying Ji to succeed him, known as King Zhao of Qin in history. Ying Ji's biological mother, the Queen Mother Xuan, brought order to the Qing Dynasty and appointed her younger brother Wei Zhen as prime minister to personally regent and stabilize the Qin state. King Min of Qi wanted to dominate the world and encouraged the six kingdoms of Shandong to destroy Qin. At the critical moment, Empress Dowager Xuan appointed Bai Qi as general to attack the Central Plains and defeat the six-nation coalition. He also fought against Wei and Han, and made a surprise attack on Chu. Qin became the super power in the Warring States Period.

During Tian Dan Jimo's six years of resistance against Yan, the Fire Bull Formation defeated the Yan army. Qi Yan declined together. During this period, King Wuling of Zhao rode in Hufu and shot, which greatly increased the national power. Qin and Zhao began a long-term strength confrontation. Fan Ju, a famous scholar who had been framed by traitors, entered the Qin Dynasty to assist King Zhao of Qin in taking charge of the government. He proposed the grand strategy of "diplomacy far away and attack near the land", and the Qin State formed a new joint force. The State of Zhao conspired with Han and Wei to suppress Qin from a high position. The Changping War, which lasted for three years, unfolded step by step, and more than 500,000 of Zhao's elite troops were wiped out in one battle. After the war, King Zhao of Qin entered his old age, and Bai Qi was forced to commit suicide, leaving Fan Ju worried. The greater crisis is that the prince is weak and sick and has no legitimate son. All the princes are mediocre and incompetent. There is little hope of selecting a legitimate son. For the first time, the Qin royal family is in a crisis state with no successor.

During the Han dynasty, historians divided it into two dynasties, called the Later and Later Han, also known as the Eastern and Western Han. Because during the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the country and usurped the throne for eighteen years, so the people before Wang Mang were called the Former Han Dynasty, and after Wang Mang, they were called the Later Han Dynasty. Moreover, the former Han Dynasty established its capital in Shaanxi, so it was known as the Western Han Dynasty, and the later Han Dynasty established its capital in Luoyang, so it was known as the Eastern Han Dynasty. "The Romance of the Later Han Dynasty" follows "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty", starting from Wang Mang and ending with the Three Kingdoms. "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty" is attached to the Qin Dynasty, and the "Romance of the Later Han Dynasty" is attached to the Three Kingdoms, but they are also unique creations. If we want to talk about the rise and fall of the Later Han Dynasty, it is more complicated than that of the Early Han Dynasty: Wang Mang usurped the country, and the disaster was caused by the Yuan Dynasty. Foreign relatives were harmed. As for this, Guangwu Zhongxing paid close attention to punishment and tried to prevent foreign relatives from intervening in the government. Emperor Ming was particularly paternal, and Emperor Zhang was very impressive in his early administration. After the emperor and the emperor, the national affairs deteriorated day by day. Foreign relatives and eunuchs fought and eventually died together. The power of the country was in the hands of the state pastors. The heroes competed for hegemony, and the weak and the strong preyed on each other. Thus, there were three kingdoms. In total, from Guangwu to Emperor Zhang, it was the era of the dictatorship of kings. From Emperor He to Emperor Huan, it was the era of relatives and eunuchs changing their powers. If Emperor Xian's reign was full of changes, it was an era of chaos and conflict at first, then an era of disputes in Fangzhen, and finally an era of competition among the Three Kingdoms...
