The Three Menaces:Qingxian Liu,
Bin Ma
Zhou
Chu is a young and courageous man during Western Jin dynasty. However,
he is often a bully when he is drunk. He, along with the local devious
alligator and ferocious
tiger, are called “Three Menaces” among the locals. The newly arrived
Governor Wang has great expectation of Zhou and visits Zhou in disguise.
Once met, Governor Wang pretends not to recognize Zhou and recounts the
hatred and agonies about the Three Menaces
of the locals. Zhou repents and swears to eradicate the menaces: shot
the tiger, slaying the alligator and becomes a reformed man.

Jingtao Zhang, Kuixi Han, Jinhong Li, Jing Shan
Yue
Lei, running away from police for the crime of being the son of Song
dynasty’s war hero when the emperor has no interests in war, hides
himself in Yulian’s house.
Staying at home alone as a single woman, Yulian takes a great risk on
her reputation of chastity and hides him in her wardrobe, upon learning
his true identity. Brother of Yulian, who is accompanying their mother
to visit her brother, suddenly returns home.
To prevent having Lei discovered, Yulian diverts and tricks his brother
from opening the wardrobe, creating humors to audience. Fortunately,
Yulian has an understanding mother. They then get married after having
saved Lei.
