In the twenty-seventh year of Dajing and Yong'an, there was a bloodbath on a rainy night in Luofengzhen.
All thirty-seven members of the border guard general's family were killed, the secret border pass was stolen, and only half of the iron pattern order remained at the scene.
Huangji Secret Secretary Xuan Dao Shen Handao was ordered to go south to investigate the murder case with Yu Su Huaiyu.
Everyone thought it was an assassination attempt by the Netherworld Pavilion, but only Shen Handao saw the pattern on the token - this was the token left behind on the night the Shen family was wiped out.
The new case brings about old hatred, and the iron pattern links the blood debt of ten years. The powerful officials in the court, the Netherworld Pavilion, and the top secretaries all have their own plans.
The secret agent who is burdened with blood, wanders in the swordsmanship and court intrigues, and makes a difficult choice between justice and private hatred.
When the sword rises to great peace, the chess game begins.
