Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming dynasty ascends the throne, and the chief eunuch Wei Zhongxian (played by Jin Shijie) and his "castrated party" are exterminated by the Jinyiwei. Among the Jinyiwei, the sworn brothers Lu Jianxing (played by Wang Qianyuan), Shen Lian (played by Zhang Zhen), and Jin Yichuan (played by Li Dongxue) are the most brave and righteous. The eldest, Lu Jianxing, aims for a promotion to the rank of a hundred households; Shen Lian wants to rescue the courtesan Zhou Miaotong (played by Liu Shishi) from the Ministry of Revenue; and the youngest, Jin Yichuan, seeks to shake off the pursuit of the rogue Ding Xiu (played by Zhou Yiwei). The three brothers decide to accept the secret mission from the Eastern Depot's commander Zhao Jingzhong (played by Nie Yuan) to hunt down Wei Zhongxian. During the operation, they are blocked by Wei Zhongxian's adopted daughter Wei Ting (played by Zhu Dan) who leads the pursuit. After a bloody encounter, Wei Zhongxian's corpse is brought back, and Lu Jianxing successfully achieves his promotion. They initially believe all their wishes can come true, but unexpectedly, Shen Lian conceals a huge secret, raising the suspicions of minister Han Kuang (played by Zhao Lixin). The three brothers then face life-threatening danger, and when Shen Lian finally reveals the truth, it is too late, involving the medical clinic woman (played by Ye Qing) in a relationship with Yichuan and Zhou Miaotong. Faced with a crisis, Shen Lian decides to leave the capital with his brothers and loved ones. With the court in decay and chaos, what will happen to the fate of the small characters?
