Trivia
- Shi Huangdi was the target of several assassination attempts in real life. When he was still King of Qin, Jing Ke tried to kill him with a dagger and the blind musician Gao Jianli also attempted to do so with lead pieces in his zhu instrument. As Emperor of Qin, Shi Huangdi was nearly killed by two men hired by Zhang Liang who threw a metal cone at his carriage. The Emperor reportedly died after swallowing mercury pills that were supposed to make him immortal in 210 BCE.
