In the capital, Lin Beichen, the eldest son of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, was notoriously sick, and the imperial doctor concluded that he would not survive the winter. Everyone was waiting to see him die so that he could divide the property of the Hou Mansion. His cousin Lin Qingyun robbed his restaurant, his fiancée Liu Yue'er came to break off the engagement, and even his servants began to look for other options. But no one knew that the prince's illness was fake and his death was fake. While drinking bitter medicine and pretending to be rubbish, he secretly planned and held the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Caogang Gang in the palm of his hand. By the time the second brother of the Lin family and the Liu family reacted, the sky in the capital had changed. They discovered that the sick man waiting to die was the real man-eating tiger.
