Plot
In the 3rd century BC, Ying Zheng, heir to the Qin state, seeks to dominate the remaining six Chinese states. Ying's strategy is to seem invincible. Ying sends his concubine Zhao to the Yan state as a spy, to enlist a Yan assassin to attempt to kill Ying. The assassination attempt is to be used as a basis to start war with the Yan. Zhao persuades Yan assassin Jing Ke, to perform the assassination. However, Zhao falls in love with Jing Ke, and after witnessing the aftermath of Ying's bloody massacre of the children in her home state, the Zhao state, takes allegiance with the Yan and helps them try to kill Ying. The assassination attempt fails, but Ying is disgraced as none of his associates attempt to stop the assassin and he is forced to kill Jing himself. Ying's disgrace is completed when Zhao, Ying's former love, comes back to Qin only to take the dead body of Jing Ke back with her to Yan so as to give him a proper burial.
The film covers a great deal of Ying Zheng's life, from his early life as a hostage to his dominance over all of China.
