You are wrong, Qin Shi Huang did not "tolerate" concubines. What he "can't tolerate" is the rebellion of Concubine.
At that time, the Qin State was originally outside the mainstream culture of the Central Plains. Have you read "Lian Po Lin Xiangru Lie"? At the meeting of the pond, the King of Qin asked the King of Zhao to play, and the King of Zhao agreed without hesitation; Lin Xiangru asked the King of Qin to strike the sword, why did it cause "the King of Qin is angry, not allowed"? Isn't that reciprocal?
It's really not peer-to-peer. The ser is an instrument, and the drummer itself is not insulting. It was the record recorded by the king of Qin that "the king of Qin and the king of Zhao would drink, and make the king of Zhao drum" that was insulting: two kings of equal status, one "ordered" the other to do things, and stood high.
As for the striking, the original text reads: "King Zhao eavesdropped on the King of Qin for Qin's goodness, please bless the King of Qin for entertainment", is to ask the King of Qin to hit the "Bun Qi". Add a "basin" and it is easy to understand: this is not a professional musical instrument, but a clay vessel for drinking water. Because the culture of the Qin State is backward, it can't play such an elegant thing as "Se", so he can only beat the crockpot and crockpot.
Therefore, Lin Xiangru "Fengpen Ling", in addition to demanding reciprocity and saving King Zhao's dignity, also has the meaning of mocking the Qin State for not knowing etiquette, so King Qin will be angry, and he needs Lin Xiangru to return to the same to threaten each other, and then reluctantly accept.
Having said all this, I just want to tell everyone: in a culturally backward place like the Qin State, it has not yet been infected with the stinky problems of "from one to the end" and "martyr women do not marry two husbands" in the Central Plains (during the Warring States Period, the Central Plains did not impose such moral standards), and it is normal for widowed women to remarry or find lovers.
Qin Shi Huang's great-grandmother Empress Dowager Xuan (yes, Miyue in the TV series) had a lover and had two children with her lover; Qin Shi Huang's mother Zhao Ji also had a lover and had two children with her lover. Their son, even if he is slightly dissatisfied in his heart, will not oppose it.
The problem was that Zhao Ji favored Concubine and was already completely controlled by Concubine: she moved with him to Yongdi, far from the royal palace, made him Marquis of Changxin, and gave him rich rewards so that he could accumulate thousands of disciples and servants. He became more and more inflated, openly claiming to be the "false father" of the King of Qin (who had not yet become emperor at this time), and even staged a coup d'état to replace him with the King of Qin.
Which ruler would allow a rebellion?
Ying Zheng defeats Concubine, tears her chariot apart, and puts her two half-brothers in a cloth bag and falls to death. He also lost peace with his mother Zhao Ji, but soon, for the sake of political influence, he welcomed his mother back and reconciled.
However, Lü Buwei, who recommended his concubine to Zhao Ji, was deposed because of this rebellion.
He not only quelled the rebellion, but also dealt a blow to his powerful ministers and further consolidated his power.
