In the 14th year of Zhengtong, the Tumubao Incident destroyed an army of 500,000, and the emperor was captured. Shen Weiyong, the minister of the Ministry of War, was accused of being the culprit and became an eternal sinner, and his whole family was overturned. His son Shen Ce fell from the clouds into the mire overnight. In order to clear up his father's grievances and seek a chance to survive in this treacherous court situation, he hid his former pride as a scholar, entered the feared Imperial Guard, and transformed into the emperor's eagle dog.
During the day, he was a ruthless Tiqi captain who was ordered to investigate cases and apprehend hundreds of officials; at night, he turned into a lonely explorer, piecing together the truth behind the shocking national disaster bit by bit in the dusty files and the ghosts of people's hearts. He has no golden fingers and no system. His only weapon is his determination to never give up and leave his name in history. In this game where the world is the chessboard, can Shen Ce use his mortal body to lift the fog of history, rectify his father's name, and bring justice to the world?
