It narrates a tale set in the Tang Dynasty, focusing on the lives of two young noblemen, 罗燦 (Luo Can) and 罗琨 (Luo Kun), as they navigate familial responsibilities, rivalry with corrupt officials, and their adventures against the backdrop of political intrigue. The opening of the book introduces the main characters,罗增 (Luo Zeng), a loyal servant to the Tang Dynasty, and his two sons, 罗燦 and 罗琨. The narrative begins with Luo Zeng receiving a military appointment to defend the border against an uprising, which causes him to express concern for his sons left behind in the capital. As Luo Zeng prepares for his duties, the dynamics of their relationships unfold, with foreshadowing of conflicts involving corrupt officials, specifically the antagonist 沈謙 (Shen Qian). The setting quickly shifts as we see the sons feeling restless and anxious about their father's absence, leading to further plotlines that tease their involvement in adventures and encounters that will test their bravery and loyalty.
