It was a convention in Chinese history, not only for Qin Shihuang, but also for emperors of every dynasties. Since they knew the construction takes time, and they want to make their underground palaces as luxurious as possible to continue privileges in the other world. So it is a pressing need to see the completion of their tombs, but actually many of them had not lived long enough till that day.

There were allegedly huge amounts of quicksilver (mercury) placed in rivets on the floor of the tomb where Shihuang's body is held, it was meant to simulate shimmering of moonlight and stars in water.
