I think you are referring to Emperor Qin (sounds like "chin"), the original emperor of China. Yes, he had enemies. In those days (approximately 264 BC), China was a collection of separate "states". Each state had their leader, and they all fought each other. Qin went to war with all the other states and eventually beat all the other states into submission. Qin united all the states of China under his control. This is why China is called China, because of the influence of Emperor Qin.

When he died, rumor says that he also buried the architects of his tomb, so the secrets of the tomb would not be given away. He, supposedly, buried his servants alive in his tomb. His tomb is in Xi'an (sounds like She Ahn). Supposedly, his tomb is a replica of his palace, with rivers of Mercury flowing as rivers. The Terra Cotta warriors in Xi'An were built by Qin's people.

Emperor Qin was a tyrant, but he did a good job at keeping China united. So, naturally, with any tyrant, he had enemies.
