Yiqu of Qin State
There was a complicated relationship between Qin and Yiqu. One could understand that the Yiqu Kingdom was the most powerful of the Xirong tribes during the Warring States Period. They had once shown their ambitions towards the Central Plains and posed a threat to the Qin Kingdom. In order to solve their worries, Qin destroyed Yiqu Country during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of Qin. Before the war, the Qin Kingdom used a strategy called the honey trap. Through the close relationship between Empress Dowager Xuan and the king of the Yiqu Kingdom, they successfully removed the guard of the Yiqu Kingdom. However, this kind of behavior was somewhat unacceptable in ancient China culture. The method used by the Qin State to destroy the Yiqu State was avoided by later generations of historians because the Qin State's sending troops was equivalent to an unannounced war, which was not recognized in ancient China culture. In general, the relationship between Qin and Yiqu was complicated and controversial.
Qin State and Yiqu
There was a long period of conflict and communication between Qin and Yiqu. During the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, the Yiqu Kingdom was a powerful Rong Kingdom and posed a threat to the Central Plains. In order to eliminate the vigilance of the Yiqu Kingdom, the Qin Kingdom adopted a policy of appeasement and established a close relationship with the Yiqu King through Empress Dowager Xuan, Mi Yue. Empress Dowager Xuan gave birth to two children for the Yiqu King, which made the Yiqu King trust the Qin country and let down his guard. However, the Qin State did not completely eliminate the threat of the Yiqu State. The war and conflict between the two sides continued for a long time. In the end, the Qin State destroyed the Yiqu State in a war and made it submit to the Qin State. However, the destruction of the Yiqu Kingdom did not completely eliminate the threat of the Qin Kingdom, because the Yiqu Kingdom still maintained a certain degree of resistance and resistance under the rule of the Qin Kingdom.

The Ending of Lady Wei of Qin State
In the TV series Legend of Mi Yue, Madam Wei ended up committing suicide. She was the princess of Wei and had a son with King Huiwen of Qin. After the death of Queen Huiwen (her sister), she became a figure with a certain status in the Qin palace. All her life, she had done anything for her son's throne. After her son died, she committed suicide in despair. In history, Empress Huiwen (a character related to Lady Wei) was executed in the second year of King Zhao of Qin (305 B.C.) because Ying Zhuang was killed for failing to fight for the throne. However, this was different from the ending of Lady Wei in the TV series.

The grudge between Qin State and Yiqu
The grudge between Qin and Yiqu could be traced back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty hundreds of years ago. The Righteous Canal was already very powerful at the end of King Ping of Eastern Zhou. It had built a city for decades and became a powerful country in the northwest region. Due to the border with Qin, the relationship between the two countries had always been tense. In 331 B.C., King Huiwen of Qin took advantage of the civil strife in Yiqu to send an army to attack Yiqu, forcing it to submit to Qin. However, the Yiqu Kingdom still secretly disobeyed and often attacked the Qin Kingdom. In 327 B.C., the Qin State attacked the Yiqu State again and seized Yuzhi City. After the Yiqu Kingdom failed, they once again submitted to the Qin Kingdom. In 272 B.C., the King of Yiqu was trapped and killed by Empress Dowager Xuan in Ganquan Palace. Qin sent troops to destroy Yiqu and finally destroyed this Rong country. Qin had set up Longxi, Beidi, and Shangjun in Yiqu. Thus, the grudge between Qin and Righteous Canal ended with Qin's victory and Righteous Canal's destruction.

Yiqu attacked Qin
The Yiqu crusade against Qin referred to the year 318 B.C., when the Yiqu Kingdom took advantage of the chaotic war between the Central Plains countries to break away from the control of the Qin Kingdom and join forces with the five eastern countries to attack the Qin Kingdom. In order to eliminate their worries, the Qin Kingdom tried to bribe the Yiqu Kingdom. However, the Yiqu Kingdom did not fall for it and still attacked the Qin Kingdom. In the end, they defeated the Qin army and recovered part of their lost land.
Qin destroyed Yiqu
In 272 B.C., King Zhao of Qin launched an attack on the Yiqu Kingdom and finally destroyed it. The reason why the Qin State wanted to destroy the Righteous Canal was because the Righteous Canal was one of the more powerful branches of the Xirong, and they often had conflicts with the Qin State. Before this, Qin had adopted a policy of appeasement to make friends with the Righteous Canal. However, in order to remove their worries, Qin had decided to destroy the Righteous Canal. Before the war, the Empress Dowager of Qin, Mi Yue, had an affair with the King of Yiqu and trapped him. This war allowed Qin to advance eastward without any worries. After destroying Yiqu, Qin set up Longxi, Beidi, and Shangjun. At the same time, they built the Great Wall to defend against the invasion of the Hu tribe.
