[Two powerful male protagonists | Two parallel tracks | Court intrigues × secret battles | Fateful pull | Two-way redemption]
In the twenty-seventh year of Dashuo Yong'an, the court was turbulent and the rivers and lakes were turbulent.
On the Ming Rail, Wei Xueyuan was dressed in a scarlet official robe, taking charge of the Suzheng Platform, controlling the life and death of hundreds of officials, and ruling the world's prisons. He is the sharpest knife in the hand of the emperor, the cold-faced Yama who is avoided by all the civil and military officials of the dynasty. He works step by step and uses the law as the blade, just to reveal the bloody truth of twenty years of prospects and old cases, and to clear up the injustices of the whole family.
Under the dark track, Tan Jingchen dressed in white and defeated Xue, took charge of Wuji Pavilion, grasped the world's intelligence, and controlled the hidden lines of the world. In the eyes of the world, he is a rich and wealthy idler who is intoxicated and dreams of death. He is a traceless ghost master who stirs up the storm but does not reveal his trace.
Two trajectories that were never supposed to intersect unexpectedly intersected due to a serial murder case in Beijing.
He regarded him as a minion who brought trouble to the court, and he guarded him from being a troublemaker in the rivers and lakes.
In the court battle, they faced each other tit for tat, pressing forward step by step, breaking each other's disguise; in the rivers and lakes confrontation, they met their opponents, used every move to check and balance, and got a glimpse of each other's weaknesses.
They are each other's strongest rivals, the only people who can trust each other in desperate situations, and the only fellow travelers across twenty years of bloodshed.
When the sword of the bright rail cannot cut through the darkness of the deep palace, and when the net of the dark rail cannot capture the truth of the mountains and rivers, the combination of the two rails is the power to overturn the world.
Later, everyone knew that there were two jade stones in Dashuo. One was used to set up the court to solemnize the rules and discipline, and the other was used to maintain peace in the rivers and lakes.
