Overview

SUI CHING ruins the celebration of the nationality day on which SUI CHUEN plans to spread the truth to his people. He humiliates SUI CHUEN in front of his people. Dessented, YUK SHING disguises as one of the common people and tries to kill SUI CHING. He fails and runs away with the help of SUEN KIU. Suppressing her anger, SUEN KIU begs SUI CHING to send his army to help TAK HOI to break away from the Chings. SUI CHING declines and sends her to lead the army to the north instead. SUI CHUEN designs a plan and asks SUEN KIU to pretend leading the army to the north while actually turning back to rescue TAK HOI. They then join forces and return to Nanking to tackle SUI CHING.
