In the 24th year of Taiping, it appears to be a peaceful and prosperous time, but in fact the hero group monopolizes the government. The "Iron List of Meritorious Officials" system established by the founding emperor has been alienated for a hundred years. Twenty-eight families of heroes have controlled important military and political positions in the court to form a hereditary monopoly. It became a spy agency that monitors hundreds of officials. Ten years ago, the "Qingzhou Case" occurred: the border defense rations were subcontracted, leading to the starvation of 30,000 border troops. The coach Shen Yue (the father of the protagonist) committed suicide unjustly. The Shen family was deprived of their titles and exiled. A group of heroes who artificially broke up the monopoly power had to defeat them with the rules they set. In the end, it promoted a system change that transcended personal grievances. "
