What should an art historian do if he finds himself at a dead end and cannot find answers to his questions? Of course, to call on the help of an expert from antiquity! In the museum where associate professor Begemotov works, a stranger brought statuettes, very similar to those made by masters of the ancient Han era in China. And while Begemotov is in thought - whether these figurines are authentic or not, the great historiographer Sima Qian dropped by for a cup of green tea. An amazing meeting, isn't it? Together with scientists readers will visit the tomb of the formidable Emperor Qin Shi-Huangdi, on the streets of the ancient Chinese city, look at the feast to the nobleman and take part in the battle with the warlike Hsiung-nu.
