The Liao troops invade the land of Song Dynasty by setting up a formidable formation at Tianmen Gate, which can only be cracked by the Dragon-Taming Wood from Muke Fortress. Yang Zongbao is ordered to investigate undercover. The chief of Muke Fortress Mu Guiying admires Yang Zongbao and hopes to marry him. But the arrogant Yang Zongbao despises and makes fun of this country girl because of his noble blood. After a series of funny twists and turns, they finally break through the Tianmen Gate and become a couple. Mu Guiying even becomes a legendary heroine in the war against the Liao Dynasty.
