Rurouni Kenko

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the government was corrupt and treacherous officials were in power. People in the northern territories of the Song Dynasty were in dire straits, and various small-scale uprisings continued to occur. The Northern Song government was too concerned about one thing and not the other, and was unable to pay off all the crimes. So it issued a reward order and clearly marked the prices for criminals of all levels. This led to the emergence of a group of people who specialized in catching reward criminals.
