Season 1:
Knowing that the ferocious mobsters kidnapped IT mogul YANG TAOGUO, quick-witted police officer WONG TAI-MUI immediately calls headquarters for backup. While the police are opening fire on the kidnappers, TAI-MUI risks her own life to give pursuit, during which a canopy collapses, hitting and injuring a passer-by and his dog. On impulse, TAI-MUI expresses radical criticism in a media interview, and she ends up being relocated to a station in Cheung Chau shortly after she gets promoted to Sergeant. Going to the hospital to visit the injured passer-by, BOWIE, TAI-MUI promises to look after his dog. Later on, she bumps into BOWIE again when she brings the dog back to her ancestral house in Cheung Chau, and she even recommends him to go sketching at CHEUNG PO-TSAI Cave.… ...
Knowing that TAI-MUI thinks CHEUNG PO-TSAI is merely a fictional character, KIM-FUNG leads her to the store room of the police station, briefing her about the history and background with regard to CHEUNG PO-TSAI, plus WONG’s Genealogy, which is then downloaded by TAI-MUI to her tablet computer. CHING SUM, from the VIP Protection Unit, is dispatched to Cheung Chau to conduct a site survey for his upcoming mission, so KIM-FUNG assigns TAI-MUI to assist him, and it turns out that they were a couple. On their inspection tour, CHING SUM and TAI-MUI run into BOWIE, from whose sketches CHING SUM out of the blue sees TAI-MUI's portrait, so CHING SUM misconstrues that the two are carrying on with each other. By chance, BOWIE overhears the conversation between FU MA and CHING SUM, learning that FU MA uncovered CHING SUM had an affair in Mainland China and had been cheating on TAI-MUI.… ...
Seeing that the guest for a large-scale outdoor event is YANG TAOGUO, TAI-MUI is of the opinion that the "Bandit King" is definitely going to show up in Cheung Chau, given the fact that they were engaged in fire during the rescue operation in Kwun Tong.

Upon TAOGUO's arrival at Cheung Chau by his private yacht, an abrupt climate change results in another unexplained, paranormal phenomenon.

In order to escape the shooting range of WONG YI's cannon, CHEUNG PO-TSAI has his crew throw the goods stored in the cabin into the sea and detain TAI-MUI in the cabin. At that moment, TAI-MUI comes to realise that she did travel back in time to the Qing Dynasty. One of TAI-MUI's modern world belongings accidentally blows up the cannon on PO's ship, leading to the defeat of CHEUNG PO-TSAI.

CHENG YAT has become old and frail, which places him at a disadvantage. In view of this, SHEK KIU gives him a hand, which on the contrary renders CHENG YAT disqualified from the competition. In the nick of time, CHEUNG PO-TSAI rushes back to duke it out with WONG YI. Just as CHEUNG PO-TSAI is looking to be on the verge of defeat, surprisingly, WONG YI's hand is bitten by a venomous snake, on the heels of which Siamese pirate WUSONA makes a sudden appearance.… ...
PALATINE takes the initiative to have a word with YAT-HIN, to whom he frankly discloses what actually happened between him and SHUK-KWAN the other night in Macau.

After learning of this, YAT-HIN changes his attitude completely, and with Prince MAN-HONG as their witness, he eventually ties the knot with SHUK-KWAN. Thinking that her mission has been accomplished after seeing this, TAI-MUI wishes the newlyweds to be blessed with a baby boy soon, without knowing that YAT-HIN doesn't sincerely want to marry SHUK-KWAN. In fact, YAT-HIN is a kind of person that refuses to give in under any duress, so he is determined to leave SHUK-KWAN to live her whole life alone in Wong's Mansion.… ...

CHEUNG PO-TSAI, MAN-HO and the others arrive at the late CHENG YAT's mourning hall, where SHEK KIU immediately reprimands PO-TSAI for being in cahoots with MAN-HO after seeing that MAN-HO is still alive. Using torture, namely "Three stabs and six holes", on CHEUNG PO-TSAI, she tactically flushes out CHENG YAT's murderer. SHEK KIU then reads out CHENG YAT's death note, which not only confirms CHEUNG PO-TSAI's position as the new Commander of the Seven Seas, but also agrees with his decision to surrender to the government. MAN-HO returns to the capital, receiving a warm welcome from the crowd on his way back. Meanwhile, Lady YIM gives birth to a baby boy, making Emperor JIAQING very happy.

Refusing to give in, Lady YIM endeavors to help YEE-TAI make a comeback. To her surprise, YEE-TAI indicates that she is no longer as influential as she once was. Therefore, Lady YIM becomes very angry at MAN-HO, which incidentally triggers her memories of the past, and she cannot help wondering how come MAN-HO was able to get well and make a full recovery after he got really sick at the age of four. Seeking to pry into the matter, Lady YIM goes to ask Lady SHUN for the secret cure for the scarlet fever, and she takes advantage of the situation to raise doubts about MAN-HO's sudden recovery. Ever since their submission to the government, CHEUNG PO-TSAI and the others have the government official titles conferred on them by the Emperor.

Amid the chaos, CHEUNG PO-TSAI and the others are arrested and thrown in jail, so CHEUNG PO-TSAI misconceives that he was framed by MAN-HO. MAN-HO begs the Emperor's pardon for CHEUNG PO-TSAI, so the Emperor gives him three days to probe into the matter even though the Emperor starts getting suspicious. Showing little compunction, Lady SHUN confesses her sins to Goddess GUAN YIN and asks for forgiveness, during which MAN-HO shows up to ask Lady SHUN about the matter agitatedly.… ...
EMPEROR JIAQING becomes infuriated after realising MAN-HO's real identity. While Lady YIM is burning incense for worship, a little golden pagoda is struck by a lightning bolt, and the remains of a baby are discovered, which links to Lady SHUN's hidden secret of switching her late newborn with another one. Just as Lady YIM is getting carried away after learning about the secret, Emperor JIAQING appears and reiterates that they should keep it secret because it is embarrassing, eventually putting the two noble consorts to death. Right in front of the late Lady SHUN's coffin, MAN-HO and MAN-JING are so sad that they break out in tears. Following that, Emperor JIAQING gets very suspicious, so he summons MAN-HO to ask him about the progress of the alleged assassination attempt involving CHEUNG PO-TSAI, implying that someone must die. MAN-HO then goes to the jail in an attempt to arrange for CHEUNG PO-TSAI to flee.… ...
