Ran out of character limit: continued. I didn't realise 假傳聖旨 is also part of history!! (the part where the Emperor's advisor ordered to kill the eldest son and elect the younger prince as the successor)

Emperor Mapidere inspired by 秦始皇 omg. The first Emperor to unite warring countries (like 春秋戰國), unifying languages into a standard script, seeking elixirs for everlasting life... then forcing labourers to build (instead of the Great Wall) a Great underwater tunnel, all the way to 焚書坑儒! When the 指鹿為馬 plot line pops up... wow, I'm screaming inside. Wish I've kept my Chinese history textbook.
