Despite his humble beginnings, Wei found himself journeying from Yangzhou to Beijing, where he unexpectedly crossed paths with the young Kang Xi Emperor. Through a combination of luck, genuine care, and unwavering loyalty to Kang Xi, Wei Xiao Bao earned a place of great trust and friendship with one of China's most significant monarchs. The storyline traces Wei's transformation from poverty to prosperity as he navigates political schemes and court rivalries, defending Kang Xi and achieving remarkable feats. Throughout his adventures, Wei encounters and charms seven beautiful women, rises in social status from brothel dweller to esteemed nobleman, and attains prestigious titles like Imperial Emissary, Ambassador, general, and admiral - all thanks to Kang Xi's favor. However, Wei also finds himself entangled in conflicting roles, such as Master of the Heaven and Earth Society and Marshal of the Mystic Dragon Cult. Ultimately, Wei Xiao Bao struggles to reconcile his dual identities as an anti-Qing rebel and Kang Xi's loyal subject. In a sacrificial gesture to repay Kang Xi's kindness and disentangle himself from the Heaven and Earth Society, Wei offers his own life, leading to his execution at Kang Xi's command.
