She experienced the Battle of Changping, witnessing the massacre of hundreds of thousands. She led the Qin cavalry, vying for supremacy with the six other states. She saw the world divided into three, the land shattered. She also heard the lingering melodies of the Longzhong Qin. She reveled in the prosperous Zhenguan era, but how did that legendary empress live her life? She rode in fine clothes and spirited horses, and also wore a feather fan and a silk turban. She was a farmer and a teacher. Yet, no one knows that such a person lived for two thousand years. Well, this is a relatively light and leisurely historical novel. Due to personal reasons, it may not be entirely historically accurate or withstand rigorous scrutiny. But I will try my best to research all the relevant materials.

(My new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty.)

A thousand years of bloodline could not withstand the power of military merit bestowed upon one. The nobles and powerful of the six kingdoms were all trampled underfoot by Qin officials. Hei Fu could only laugh and ask: Are kings and generals born with a special destiny? He conquered the Baiyue in the south, repelled the Xiongnu in the north, forced the Di and Qiang tribes to flee west, and sent warships eastward. Within the six directions, all was the Emperor's land. How did history change under his influence? Qin Shi Huang was destined to die, and the empire would soon be divided. As a Qin official, what choice should one make: to fuel the flames or to try and save the day?

Welcome to my new book, "1981". Huang Sheng, an experienced engineering graduate and small business owner, has run several small factories over the past decade, experiencing both successes and failures. By chance, he travels back to the late Ming Dynasty. He doesn't know the eight-legged essay, can't compose poetry, and can't ride horses or shoot arrows. However, he possesses knowledge nearly four hundred years ahead of the Ming people. Riding animals to fight is too unsafe; let's use armored four-wheeled carts to crush the Jurchens. Using fire ships to surround enemy ships is too primitive; let's use armored warships equipped with rifled cannons to destroy the Western barbarians. Using bows and arrows for long-range attacks is too backward; let's use coordinated infantry and artillery fire with flintlock rifled muskets to create a civilization where the sun never sets.
