Yang Tianbao is a chivalrous outlaw with a heart. When he meets the courtesan Wei Huachou, the two strike a common chord as both live in the margin of society. But after they are married, they find that life is hard with little means and often quarrel.A local upstart and bully, Wu Shou, tricks him into believing that his wife is unfaithful.The couple has a quarrel, and Tianbao leaves home in anger, leaving Huachou behind with his younger sister.Now having succeeded with his scheming, Wu Shou comes to visit on the pretext of collecting rent.He makes lascivious passes at Tianbao’s sister, and in a bid to save her, Huachou kills Wu Shou with a pair of scissors. She is arrested and sentenced to the execution ground to be executed.After leaving home, Tianbao has saved the Emperor on the road, and is awarded with the title as Prince of Fidelity and Bravery.On his way back to his home town, he passes by the execution ground and sees his wife going to be executed.This reminds him of her infidelity and is overwhelmed with anger.Fortunately, the younger brother of Huachou comes to her rescue in the nick of time.Realising that they have been fooled by Wu Shou, the couple makes up and is back together again.
