From Top Scholar to Night Watchman (Cancelled)

A scholar named Shum Man-so (Shen Wensu), being framed by a government official, disguises himself as a woman to flee with his servant.  He is saved by Lau Sim-kam (Liu Chanjin), leader of the brigands living in Kau Fung Mountain, who disguises herself as a man.  Man-so and Sim-kam get married. When Man-so learns that Sim-kam is a brigand, he leaves and goes to the capital to take the imperial examination in which he excels and becomes a government official.  Sim-kam hears the news, so she goes to the capital to see Man-so, who turns her away. Thirteen years after Sim-kam has gone back to the mountain, there is a war against Liao soldiers at the border, Prime Minister Wong (Prime Minister Wong) recommends Sim-kam to lead their soldiers to fight against Liu’s invasion.  In revenge for Man-so’s disloyalty, Sim-kam deploys him to transport military rations. Man-so is then punished to serve as a night watchman because of the delay in transportation.  In this adversity, Man-so repents thoroughly of his misdeeds.  With Prime Minister Wong’s help in mediation, this couple are finally reconciled.
