Hua Ge, who has been a widower for generations, disguised as a man and is known as Hua Jiuye, solved a series of revenge murders in Lingling and uncovered the old widower Zhao Zuozuo behind the scenes. The King of Chu, Wei Wei, took a fancy to Hua Ge's ability and offered her an invitation to work in the Prince's Mansion of Chu. The two reached a deal: Hua Ge went north to the capital with Wei Wei to help him investigate old cases in the palace, and Wei Wei would assist Hua Ge in investigating the old cases of his father's attack. At the same time, Hua Ge also took the opportunity to take his mother out of the depressing Hua family's inner house. Hua Ge bids farewell to her grandfather Hua Jing. His grandfather is worried about her causing trouble in the capital, but he also recognizes her talent and gives her a token to prepare for danger.
The group set out for Beijing, encountered heavy rain on the way, and stayed at Ruanjiazhuang. Rumors of a curse circulated in the village, and pregnant women were hanged on the screen wall every year. That night, the girl Ruan Ying was killed and hanged on the wall. Immediately afterwards, the old patriarch Ruan was also brutally killed. Hua Ge and Wei Wei set out to investigate the case and clear away the superstitious fog surrounding the curse.
After investigation, it was learned that during the disaster year 18 years ago, three members of the Ruanjiazhuang tribe murdered the foreign woman Guan Niangzi, who was pregnant with Liujia, for money. Lady Guan's son Guan Yi survived by chance and was secretly raised in the mountains by Ruan Ying's mother Mao Ping. When he grew up, he came back for revenge. Ruan Ying was defiled and became pregnant out of wedlock. Unable to bear the humiliation, she was forced to cooperate with Guan Yi and use her own death to complete the illusion of the "curse".
Hua Ge sets up a trap to capture the murderer Guan Yi, and Mao Ping reveals the truth about the tragedy eighteen years ago. The government rushed to take over the case, and the evil-doing Ruan family members were brought to justice. After solving the murder case in Ruanjiazhuang, Hua Ge, Wei Wei and their group set out on the road to the capital again. Wei Wei carries a jade bracelet fragment related to his biological mother's old case. A storm in the capital is waiting for them on the way.
