During the last years of the Tang Dynasty, a young aristocrat by the name of Nie Yinniang (Shu Qi) was taken from her home by her aunt, the Princess turned Taoist nun, Jia Xin (Fang Yi Sheu), to be trained as an assassin. Studying the ways of the assassin since she was ten, Yinniang has grown into nothing short of a living weapon, one wielded by her aunt to slay the corrupt government officials who would otherwise rule unchecked. But when Yinniang unexpectedly shows mercy to one of her intended targets, her aunt punishes her with a ruthless test of mettle.

Tasked with killing Tian Ji’an (Chang Chen), the military governor of the northern province of Weibo, Yinniang has no choice but to obey. Setting out to do just that, Yinniang is painfully aware of the fact that following her aunt’s orders will mean killing not only her cousin but also the man that was once her betrothed. Undeterred by her past ties to Tian Ji’an, Yinniang is willing to follow her aunt’s orders until, through extensive observation, she realizes that doing so would jeopardize the stability of the entire province.&nbsp;

Torn between what is right and what she’s been ordered to do, Yinniang must decide which path she will tread. With the fate of so many resting in her hands, will she choose to follow her head or her heart?

The year is 1627, and China is in the last days of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The young Emperor has decided that he must wipe out the powerful eunuch Wei (Chin Shi Chieh) and do away with his supporters. Three warriors and firm friends, part of a secret order of Imperial Assassins, step up to the challenge. They are the mysterious Lian (Chang Chen), the promotion-chasing Jian Xing (Wang Qian Yuan), and a young man with a troubling medical ailment named Yi Chuan (Li Dong Xue).

But although their assignment to kill the eunuch appears straightforward at first, the further along the trio progresses with their quest, the more they realize that conspiracies abound at every turn. The past is also catching up with them, and the secrets they hide from one another also threaten to complicate matters. The trio all need money for very different reasons: One hopes to raise enough money to bribe an official, another hopes to free his lover from her captors, and the other wants to pay off a blackmailer who is attempting to expose his criminal past. When they receive a tempting counter-offer, however, their plan to kill Wei could hit the rocks!
