During the Yuanyou period of the Northern Song Dynasty, the blood-stained salt water of the Bianhe River opened a chess game in troubled times. Zhang Zijin, a gambler in the market, was involved in the whirlpool between the government and the public because of the Cao Clan extermination case. With his exquisite mind and extraordinary courage, he knocked on the door of officialdom with the blood-stained "Secret Account of Cao Transport". The royal street changes to black yarn, the brothel breaks the rouge situation, the left hand holds the square sword to rectify the new rule of law where silverfish are rampant, and the right hand holds the sacred fire order to stir up the storm of the eight major sects.
He circled between the undercurrent of Wang Anshi's reform and the Liao Xia spy network, lying on the imperial censor's daughter's bed with a smile, and outwitting Xixia's red hands. However, he glimpsed a shocking conspiracy in front of the dragon vein map of the underground palace - the heavy rain of the Jianghu sect, the pear blossom needle was connected to the beacon fire at the border, and the sound of the arithmetic beads of the Qingmiao method was mixed with the cries of the innocent souls of children sacrificed. When Zhan Zhao's broken arm was splashed with blood at the wedding banquet, and Murong Xue's Love Gu withered away in Yanmen, this chess game on the edge of a knife was finally burnt out by the "Wu Jing Zong Yao". However, the prime minister in white clothes and his four beauties disappeared into the fog of Taihu Lake, leaving only the storyteller under the stunned tree, a legend of the rivers and lakes and the court stained by the red dust.
