A mining accident that has been in the dust for thirty years, like a fateful spell, has drawn the two brothers Shen Mingyuan and Shen Minghai into a whirlpool of fate intertwined with love and hate. One sticks to his original intention and works step by step, vowing to uncover the truth and eradicate evil; the other falls into the abyss for revenge and becomes a hero, but secretly protects him. Amidst the ups and downs of officialdom, entanglements of love and hate, and the extreme pull of human nature's degradation and redemption, they were once each other's most trusted brothers, but eventually they became irreconcilable enemies. The trigger of all this was actually Shen Mingyuan's "unkindness" in "enforcing the law impartially" when he first entered the officialdom, and a love that was distorted by an unexpected pregnancy. Until an anti-crime storm swept across Jiangzhou, completely tearing apart all the dust-laden secrets.
