Time travels back to Zhao Lie, the only son of a peasant family in a famine year, and watches his whole family starve to death. He set fire to the granaries of the landlords where they were hoarding money. In the light of the fire, thousands of refugees knelt down and proclaimed themselves king. In troubled times, he used iron-fisted methods to organize the army and farmland, collect defeated troops, fight against profiteers, and destroy the government and army. But the cold strategist Shen Mo said: You can kill for a while, but you can't cure for a lifetime. When the mysterious mute woman handed over the offensive and defensive plans, and when the female doctor Chen Sanniang refused to treat the prisoners, Zhao Lie understood that becoming king was just the beginning, what he wanted was to shake things up. A fire can burn down the granary, but it cannot burn out the game of human nature.
