In the late Five Dynasties period, Li Congjia (Li Yu), the sixth son of the Li clan in the Southern Tang has been making big plans for a long time. On the surface, he seems to be always indulging in poetry and song, hanging out in bars and brothels. But in fact, he has secretly cultivating a group of talented followers in preparation to contest the kingdom, while manipulating the Tangjiabao in the Shu kingdom, the assassin guild led by Chu Hanfei, the former duke of the State of Chu. Three major forces have emerged, and all three are focused on finding the ancient book "Pushback Diagram." Meanwhile, Zhao Kuangyin, the grand general of the Houzhou, is also carefully plotting out his grand plan to unite the kingdoms.
