Qin Shi Huang, the political figure who completed the unification of China for the first time, and the first monarch in China to be called emperor, this emperor has left us with too many mysteries, his birth, his appearance, his ability, his cause of death, his mausoleum, etc., have not been able to get a definite answer today.
For how Qin Shi Huang died, it has always been a public opinion, can not give an accurate answer, some people agree that Qin Shi Huang is a simple illness and death, and some people think that this is related to Zhao Gao. The view of Guo Moruo's faction is that Qin Shi Huang was nailed alive with iron nails.
Guo Moruo believes that Qin Shi Huang was on the parade, because of the hot weather, and Qin Shi Huang was very superstitious, he was disturbed by previous rumors: "This year Zu Long died", "Hu Ye the deceased Qin", etc., resulting in a recurrence of epilepsy, coupled with his long-term work, his body was close to the brink of collapse.
Guo Moruo had studied that Qin Shi Huang was probably assassinated because qin shi huang had black blood in his right ear after his death, and Guo Moruo said that if there were autopsy personnel at that time, he would definitely find an iron nail about three inches long in Qin Shi Huang's right ear.
