Qin Shi Huang and 4 unsolved mysteries, there is one thing that makes posterity controversial

In the history of ancient China, there were more than 400 kings, but there was only one king worthy of the title of "The Ancient Emperor of Heaven", that is Qin Shi Huang. There are still many mysteries about the life of this king.

1. Qin Shi Huang's background

The status of Qin Shi Huang - the first emperor to build a tomb for himself. This is one of the eternal mysteries about Qin Shi Huang. Nominally, Qin Shi Huang was the son of Zhang Xiang Wang of Qin. However, some historical documents suggest that Qin Shi Huang was the son of Lu Wuwei - a wealthy merchant who later became the general of Qin.

Explaining this thesis, many historians speculate that when Zhang Xiangwang was still a prince of Zi Su, as a hostage of Qin in the Zhao country, he was acquainted with Lu Wuwei. With great intelligence and intrigue, La Bu Vi offered Trieu Co - a pregnant concubine to Zi Su.

Later, Trieu Co gave birth to a boy named Zheng Zheng (i.e. Qin Shi Huang). Later, Zheng Zheng gradually became the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Until now, no one has dared to affirm who is really the father of Qin Shi Huang.

2. Qin Shi Huang's appearance

The face of this famous emperor of the Qin Dynasty is also controversial. A stream of opinions said that Qin Shi Huang was a handsome and stylish person. Meanwhile, another stream of opinions said that Qin Shi Huang had a modest height and had a deformed body, becoming ugly.

Accordingly, some opinions say that Qin Shi Huang has big eyes, a high nose, a loud and clear voice, a decisive spirit, a straight and confident gait like the god Apollo. On the contrary, representing writers, historians, and archaeologist Guo Moruo, said that Qin Shi Huang had a broken nose, bulging eyeballs and a voice that resembled the howl of a jackal. His chest protrudes. This emperor even suffered from tracheitis and rickets.

However, many people do not believe the argument that Qin Shi Huang has an ugly appearance. Because, Qin Shi Huang's parents, Zhang Xiangwang of Qin and Zhao Ke, are both "beautiful girls, beautiful boys", so there is no reason why their children are ugly. In addition, there is rarely an heir to the throne with a deformed appearance who is wholeheartedly supported by the gods and brought to the throne of the Nine Five Noble Lords.

3. Who was the Empress of the Qin King?

Qin Shi Huang did not make an empress. Legend has it that there is 1 famous woman who is most loved by him, A Phong. This person was not only beautiful but also grew up with Emperor Qin. Because he loved A Fang, Qin Shi Huang built a palace named after her - A Fang Palace. However, after Qin Shi Huang died, although the palace was still built, it was not fully completed when the Qin Dynasty collapsed.

It is said that after Qin Shi Huang unified the six vassal countries, he wanted to make A Fang the empress. Because she was from the Zhao country, he was strongly opposed by the ministers. After being objected to and witnessing what happened to his biological mother, Qin Shi Huang thought that after the women in the harem came to power, there was a great risk of an internal coup in the palace during the succession to the throne, so the emperor abolished the regulations on the queen. The emperor could have as many women as he wanted, but they could not rule the country.

Others also think that Qin Shi Huang is not passionate about female beauty, so he avoids many troubles and focuses on political affairs. Another theory is that because he was immersed in the search for the elixir of immortality, Qin Shi Huang no longer had the mind to think about making an empress. Many theories have been put forward to explain why Qin Shi Huang did not make an empress, but no one is sure which is the decisive cause.

4. The mysterious fate of the person who made Qin Shi Huang believe that the elixir of immortality is real

More than 2,200 years ago, Qin Shi Huang ascended the throne as emperor. Holding the whole world in his hands, power reached a peak that no one could reach, that was also the time when he went to find a way for himself to enjoy that privilege... forever by seeking the elixir of immortality.

Once, after Qin Shi Huang arrived at Taishan Mountain, he passed through Longkou (now part of Shandong) on a journey to the east - then called Huang County, under the arrangement of the local official, the alchemist Xu Fu met the emperor as a local celebrity and asked to accompany the emperor.

When he arrived at the area that is present-day Jiaonan, Xu Fu said that there were three sacred mountains in the Bohai Sea, and the people who lived in them after eating the elixir of immortality from the mountains, they all became immortal, becoming gods from there. Xu Fu set out to find that remedy for Qin Shi Huang.

Hearing this, the emperor was very happy, and immediately gave Xu Phuc a lot of gold and silver treasures and ordered this person to take 1,000 men and women and 3 years of spare food to go to find elixir.

Not long after, Tu Phuc returned empty-handed. They failed to find the sacred mountain, but they did not dare to confess to Qin Shi Huang, so they made up a story that they encountered a giant water monster on the way, so they had to retreat. Not giving up his original intention, Qin Shi Huang sent an archer and Xu Fu led another 3000 people to sail across the sea to find the elixir of immortality.

After a while, Qin Shi Huang still didn't see Xu Fu return with the precious medicine. Tu Fuc's whereabouts have since sunk into oblivion.

According to the account, it is possible that Tu Phuc was shipwrecked, or it is more likely that this person went to Japan to live there for the rest of his life.
