One reason is the Terracotta Army located to the east of the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang and its purpose is to guard the emperor. Thus, the emperor as the chief commander of this troop, his position is in the rear, with all soldiers back to him. Another reason is to prevent threats come from enemies, six kingdoms in the east. Though their troops destroyed, their land captured, there were still counter-forces remained to overthrow the newly established regime. That's what the emperor didn't want to see after his death.
