The Emperor (Liu Yiwei of Karmic Mahjong) and Empress (Sandra Ng) are holding a competition to determine a husband for their daughter, Princess Rainbow (Song Jia of Curiosity Killed the Cat). However, Rainbow has her eyes on Royal Guard member Royal Tiger (Tong Dawei of Lost in Beijing), who enters the competition as a ringer – which is great for him, because he's got a thing for Rainbow, too. There's also a second ringer, Tiger's supposedly inept brother Royal Dog (Louis Koo). Dog has poor kung-fu but also a keen mind that allows him to outwit his foes plus invent all sorts of primitive, but still nifty technology. His skills make him a contender during the competition, with even Rainbow charmed by his tanned visage. However, there's a crossdressing female assassin (Liu Yang of Bullet and Brain) meddling in the competition, and she also comes between Royal Dog and his sweetheart Faithful (an overacting Barbie Hsu), leading to romantic shenanigans highlighted by Louis Koo crying. Meanwhile, the Empress laughs villainously and uses her ninjitsu skills to try to assassinate Royal Dog.
