Shen Zhao drank the poisonous wine given by the enemy country, and the whole court burst into laughter. However, the next day, when the eight cities were beacon-fired, the enemy country was shocked. It turned out that he was not dead, and the poisonous wine was a fake medicine that Liu Wuyin had replaced. Xiao Yan, the general of Zhenbei, was ordered to trace the truth, but in the secret report from the barbarian prisoner He Lianshuo, he discovered that behind this was actually a shocking restoration network of the former dynasty's orphans and his old troops. Cui Jiuling panicked and usurped power, Su Lingyi borrowed a knife to kill people, and Shen Zhao and Xiao Yan, one with a blood feud, the other with torn loyalty, are turning from enemies to fellow travelers into the abyss together.
