Tang Zheng was puzzled. He had just arrived and was sentenced to death. He had only stolen a chicken, so why was he put on death row? Was the law in ancient times really that harsh? Some wanted to kill him, while others wanted to protect him. In times of great strife and rampant warfare, the people live in peace and prosperity, but in times of chaos, people are treated like dogs. Local warlords carve out their own territories and become kings. It was truly an era where living was exhausting. Tang Zheng wanted to observe from the sidelines, but unknowingly he fell into a trap. Those who wanted to kill him continued to want to kill him, and those who wanted to protect him still wanted to protect him. In the struggle between killing and protecting, he gradually discovered a shocking secret. History has never been a matter of truth or falsehood; who can turn the tide and shake the world? The various states are constantly at war. In the past, Confucius traveled around the states. Now, watch as I, Tang Zheng, fight alongside the nation! This is a story about someone who goes from farming to becoming an emperor! (Also, my older book, "The Glory of the Tang Dynasty," has over 10,000 subscriptions. I guarantee it's a well-written book, and you're welcome to check it out. You won't be disappointed.) Book club: 707518143

(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.) At the end of the Warring States period, China experienced a great upheaval unprecedented in a thousand years. Some people are born into noble families. Some of them are noblemen. He was reborn as Hei Fu, a lowly soldier in the Qin state, a minor figure in the Qin bamboo slips of Yunmeng. To avoid dying in the ravine and to take control of his own destiny, he struggled to climb upwards. Fortunately, he was born in a great era. The six kingdoms were defeated, and the world was unified! 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?
