Shen Qingwu, the social beast, turned out to be the son of a guilty minister and presented "Ten Strategies to Benefit the Country" on the day his house was raided. Emperor Xiao Chengji regretted it and slapped himself in the face. But the road to reform is full of murderous intentions: the chief assistant Zhao Wujiu hides the family's sword, the female general Xie Zhao holds the edict to clear up the injustice, the wealthy businessman Zhou Yan sends a blood-stained silver note, and the female official Liu Ruyan unfolds the chess game of the restoration of the country late at night. While promoting the New Deal, Shen Qingwu dismantled the counterattack of the old forces, only to find that the biggest enemy was the emperor's wavering suspicion. He wants to survive in the whirlpool of power and intrigue, and he wants to let the decadence of this dynasty be reborn in the fire.
