Where did Qin Shihuang die?
Sand dunes.
When Qin Shihuang went on a tour for the last time, he fell ill halfway. He tabooed the word "death", and no one among his officials dared to talk about death. When he reached the platform of the sand dune, Qin Shihuang felt that he could not survive, so he left an edict to his son Fusu: "After my death, you must return to Xianyang (the capital of Qin) to attend my funeral."
The edict at that time. Zhao Gao did not make it public. After the death of Qin Shi Huang, Li Si and Zhao Gao were afraid that Fu Su would come back to inherit the throne, so they destroyed Qin Shi Huang's edict and forged a fake edict to allow Hu Hai to ascend the throne. Since Qin Shihuang died on the way, Li Si was afraid that his son would know that Qin Shihuang was dead and the world would change, so he concealed the news and did not announce the funeral secretly. He ordered a long journey back to Xianyang and placed Qin Shihuang's body in the car.
Hundreds of officials accompanied him, and wherever he went, everyone still ate and performed as before, and only a few people knew about Qin Shihuang's death. The weather was very hot at that time, and Qin Shihuang's body soon stinked. Li Si asked the officials to load a lot of abalone into the car, and used the smell of abalone to cover up the smell of the body, and finally concealed it until they returned to Xianyang.

After the unification of the six kingdoms, various schools and talents who were strongly opposed to Shang Yang's reform came to Qin one after another. Perhaps Qin Shihuang adopted "Shang Yang's reform with Qin characteristics", which caused the Qin Dynasty Superstitions of all kinds prevailed in the empire. Among them, Huang Lao Taoist and Yin Yang schools combined the theories of Confucianism, Legalism and Taoism to put forward the so-called "theory of the end of the five virtues", which was especially trusted by the First Emperor. The First Emperor then believed that Qin was the virtue of water and Zhou was the virtue of fire. , Water can defeat fire, so Qin conquered the world. ?
The Confucian scholars and alchemists from Qi and Yan also gave a new look to the Confucian "Feng Chan". It is widely said that emperors from ancient times have held a ceremony for "Feng Chan".
