Also known as "The Executioner of the Qing Dynasty"
Qing Dynasty, Shunzhi period.
Young Jin Gu was sent by his father to study under the famous executioner Bao Xitao. He became close friends with Yongtai, a young man who joined the apprenticeship at the same time. The two cherished this rare brotherhood.
In Bao's courtyard, they grew up together and worked hard to learn knife skills together, but unknowingly tasted the care of the people around them, and also saw the warmth and turmoil of the world. Unfortunately, the master passed away, and Zhou Zhuo, who was the elder brother of the two, turned against him. Not only did he set up his own business, but he also framed the Bao Family Courtyard's people in an attempt to kill his wife, drive his junior brother out of the capital, and monopolize the Bao Family Courtyard's property.
In order to save his master's wife and Bao's family, Jin Gu relied on his cleverness and tried every trick, but he still couldn't escape the officials' calculations. He apparently defended his master's wife, but in fact, he put the invisible noose of a chaste and fierce woman heavily on his master's wife. Separated by a wall, the once happy Bao Family Courtyard has become a scar in the hearts of the swordsmen that can never be healed.
