The story begins with the death of Fu Chai's father, 3 years before Fu Chai ascended the throne and successfully defeated Yue. As events advance, the timeline is fast-forwarded to 3 years later when Gou Jian, being complacent with his own victory over Wu, suggested taking the initiative to conquer Wu. He was met with the objections of Wen Zhong and Fan Li who thought that, as Fu Chai still harbours deep hatred towards Gou Jian for causing his father's death, it wasn't the right time to launch an attack on the angsty Wu. However, Gou Jian went ahead with his own desire and ended up suffering a major defeat. The true story unfolds here as it depicts the journey of how Gou Jian became Fu Chai's slave and rebuilt his kingdom discreetly enlisting the help of the famous beauty Xi Shi to seduce Fu Chai and making Fu Chai indulge in making merry with Xi Shi every day and neglecting the state affairs as a result - even killing his most loyal subject Wu Zixu under the insinuation of Xi Shi and Zheng Dan. And there begins the demise of the Wu kingdom.
