Description

Description

The widow Princess Ping-yeung has a lover, Wai Ching, who is a slave. To promote Wai Ching’s status, Ping-yeung arranges a romantic encounter between Wai Ching’s sister, Tze-hing and the Emperor Han who passes by Baling. The Emperor has a crush on Tze-hing and rewards her as Lady Wai. However, the Empire’s governing power is controlled by Empress Chan and her brother, who are the granddaughter and grandson of the Queen Dowager. To avoid the Chans harming his lover, the Emperor refuses to bring Tze-hing back to the palace, and promotes Wai Ching as the imperial guard. Yet, Ping-yeung discloses Lady Wai to the jealous Empress Chan, and the Emperor sends Wai Ching to lead the defensive troops as the Huns invades at the same time. How can Lady Wai go through Empress Chan’s trickery safely?
