In the fifth year of Jingyuan, a rebellion broke out in Jiangdu. The rebels used preaching to slander Emperor Jinglong. Wei Qiao, the eldest son of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the only king with a different surname in the dynasty, and Xiao Yu, the fourth prince who was a sister to his mother and concubine, were ordered to capture the rebel leader. The two rushed to Jiangdu at starry night and saw the devastation all over the city. They found the rebel leader Shen Li in the dungeon. His identity was very consistent with the brother of Wei Qiao's father Shen Qingzhi, Shen Qingzhi. Wei Qiao became suspicious, and despite Xiao Yu's dissuasion, he took Shen Li back to the palace for personal interrogation.
On the way, Shen Li bluntly stated that the rebellion was due to the suffering of the people of Jiangdu, and angrily accused the imperial court of ignoring people's livelihood. These words angered Wei Qiao, who severely punished him. After returning home, Wei Qiao just put Shen Li in the dungeon and then went to meet his father, queen, mother and concubine. After everything was said to his father, queen, mother and concubine, Wei Qiao took Shen Li to meet Shen Qingzhi, but Shen Li denied the relationship. Shen Qingzhi looked strange, which made Wei Qiao even more suspicious and made him realize that there was an unknown secret behind Jiangdu's rebellion. After learning the truth. After Wei Qiao finally learned of Shen Li's suffering, he led a rebellion and overthrew the entire corrupt dynasty. In the end, Shen Li ascended the throne and Wei Qiao cleared the way for him.
