During the late Warring States period, the Qin State emerged as a dominant force with the help of leaders such as Ying Zheng, Lu Bu Wei, Li Si, and Wang Jian. Together, they worked to bring the six states under one rule, leading to the establishment of the Qin Empire as the first dynasty of Imperial China. King Zhao Xiang's aggressive tactics helped the Qin State gain strategic advantage over the other states. Following the deaths of King Zhao Xiang and King Xiao Wen, disputes over legitimacy arose within the royal court. Lu Bu Wei, a influential merchant, sought to seize power by supporting the exiled prince, Ying Yi Ren. The eldest prince eventually resolved the political unrest by leaving the capital. Despite facing difficulties in battles against Zhao, Qin continued its ambition to conquer all lands. Ying Zheng, with guidance from Lu Bu Wei, began to demonstrate leadership qualities as he returned home with his mother, Zhao Ji. To secure the throne for her son, Zhao Ji and Lu Bu Wei allied against Huayang Furen. Ying Zheng embarked on a ruthless journey towards becoming an emperor, utilizing those around him to consolidate power.
