Shinzei, who is actively engaged in political events, sends Kiyomori to Chinzei to raise money by collecting unpaid taxes. Meanwhile, Shigemori, Kiyomori's eldest son, not accepting Kiyomori following Shinzei--the person who ordered Kiyomori to kill his uncle, is reluctant with the marriage arranged by Kiyomori. After successfully fulfilling his duty in Chinzei, Kiyomori devises a plan to improve his status by using a tea set he obtained there.
