黄棘 / Huangji

黄棘 / Huangji enters the wiki through 《资治通鉴·周纪》60丨 中国第一位把持朝政的太后竟是她？ as the 304 BCE meeting site for 秦昭襄王 and 楚怀王. The episode says the rulers reaffirm their alliance there while 秦国 returns 上庸 to 楚国.

Huangji’s role is diplomatic. It marks the high point of 芈八子 / 宣太后’s Qin-Chu repair before the later hostage incident involving 芈横 breaks the alignment.
