内容介绍 :	Mei-yuk and Ying-ngor are Chiu Ying-keung's wife and sister, respectively. They look after Ying-keung's father at home and wait for Ying-keung's return to celebrate his father's birthday. Kwok Sung-on, the brother of the Queen, is a student of Ying-keung's father. Using a visit to the ill teacher as an excuse, Kwok Sung-on goes to the Chiu family . The truth is that he wants to have Ying-ngor as his concubine. Ying-keung's father tries to stop him but is beaten to death by him. Ying-keung is in deep sorrow over his father's death. He goes to ask for help from a district officer who promises to investigate the case. However, the district officer is slandered by Sung-on's gang. When Ying-keung returns home, he finds that Ying-ngor has been seized by Sung-on. Ying-keung and Mei -yuk report the case to the Baron who is about to arrest Sung-on. Sung-on then commands his people to kill the Baron. Ying-keung escapes while Mei-yuk is caught and kept with Ying-ngor. Ying-keung decides to follow Sung-on's master Monk Chung-sin to learn martial arts. Three years later, Ying-keung has become excellent at martial arts and goes back home to look for his wife. On the way home, at the West River, he saves a woman who is chased down a hill by a gang of wicked people. The woman is in fact his wife Mei-yuk. She was chased because when Sung-on forced Ying-ngor to marry him, Mei-yuk lied that she wanted to be with Sung-on. Sung-on then freed Ying-ngor. When Sung-on was drunk, Mei-yuk tried to kill him. But since he was wearing an armored vest, Mei-yuk failed and escaped. The couple appeals the case to the Head of the Penalty Department Fan Kwok-leung. Fan arrests Sung-on but Sung-on's sister, the Queen of the West Palace, gives Fan a hard time and brings up the case to the Emperor. The Emperor orders Ying- keung and Sung-on to fight a duel. Since Sung-on's armored vest is specially made, Ying-keung's sword is not strong enough to kill him. At this moment, Mei-yuk brings Ying-keung a precious sword given to Yig- ngor by Monk Chung-sin. Sung-on is eventually killed by Ying-keung.
