A massacre 12 years ago turned Lin Shu, whose father was framed and killed, into Mei Changsu, Chief of Jiangzuo Alliance. Amidst the fight for the throne between two princes, he returns for justice.
A husband selection tournament for Princess Nihuang is arranged in the will of the Emperor of Liang. Each side has their own plans to compete for the position as well as to recruit Mei Changsu.
Mei Changsu promises Prince Jing to free and teach a child from Servant Prison. Commander Meng Zhi, with former allegiance to the Lin Clan, recognises Mei Changsu's real identity and offers to ally.
Mei Changsu takes the chance of helping Liang against Northern Yan in order to set Tingsheng free. In front of Prince Jing, Su reveals his choice. Meanwhile, a plot against Nihuang is unfolding.
The three children trained by Mei Changsu overcome the Northern Yan warrior, which pleases the Emperor of Liang exceedingly. Nihuang is warned of an upcoming plot against her in the imperial harem.
Prince Yu shows up in time to cover for Prince Jing on the advice of Mei Changsu. People are impressed by Mei Changsu's exceptional foresight, and realise a huge storm is now brewing in the Capital.
