The Legend of Mi Yue

Description： In 1974, a shocking secret that had been buried for over two thousand years was unearthed in Lintong, Shaanxi Province - the Terracotta Army of the Qin Dynasty. It is a huge pottery army and is known as the Eighth Wonder of the World. There has always been controversy in the historical academic circle about who the owner of the Terracotta Army really is. However, there is a fact that a strange symbol was retained on the Terracotta Army. After research, it turned out to be two characters - "Mi Yue". Through the vicissitudes of time, the name "Mi Yue" finally emerged again. She was the first empress dowager in Chinese history, also the first recorded powerful female politician, and even more, a pioneer who laid a solid foundation for the Qin Empire. There were very few records about her in historical books. Perhaps in that patriarchal society, people were unwilling to spend too much ink on a female figure, or perhaps it was because she broke through the moral constraints on women in that era. From being the lowly-ranked Mi Ba Zi to becoming the all-powerful Empress Dowager Xuan, how many struggles and sacrifices did she have to experience? In the imperial court and the imperial harem, this weak woman who once stood at the top of the Chinese land was destined to become an astonishing legend in history. In December 2015, the famous director Zheng Xiaolong led the original cast of "Empresses in the Palace" to create another historical drama "The Legend of Mi Yue".
