In search of the last model for his painting “Nine Pretty Women”, acclaimed scholar Tong Pak Fu (Moses Chan) goes on a trip to Hangzhou with his ardent disciple Wat Kei (Lee Sze Chit). While there, he meets a pretty young maid from Wah’s Residence, Chau Heung (Myolie Wu). Fu is mesmerized by Heung’s beauty and martial agility and falls in love with her right away. In order to approach the girl, he disguises as a servant and assumes the pseudonym Wah On, seeking to win her affections with his talent and ingenuity. But contrary to his wishes, Heung is unmoved and even harbours an intense dislike for him after a series of misunderstandings. Master of the family Wah Hung Shan (Ha Yu) knew from the very beginning that Fu is not a common man. By the time his true identity is revealed, the scholar has already developed a close bond with the whole of the family, except Heung.

In the meantime, Prince Ling (Tsang Wai Kuen), who has been attempting to rebel against Emperor Ching Tak (Lai Lok Yi), has managed to involve Fu in his conspiracy by stratagem, thus getting the man and the Wahs into big trouble. Ling’s daughter Chu Ting Yuk (Fala Chen) is in love with Fu. Desperate to save her dream man, she forces Ling to release Fu by threatening to kill herself. Yuk’s consuming passion for Fu seems to have caused a ripple of unease in Heung, who is starting to feel a little twinge of jealousy inside.

Synopsis :
The golden triangle of Zhang Guoli, Wang Gang, and Zhang Tielin reunite after four years for the fourth series of The Bronze Teeth! The highly rated Mainland television drama has shown no signs of slowing down, as the audience has demanded the three actors to continue to wreak comedy havoc as the wise scholar and official Ji Xiaolan, the pathetically corrupt minister Heshen, and the Qianlong Emperor respectively. The core trio gain some high-profile co-stars in this outing, most notably Hong Kong pop diva and actress Miriam Yeung, who plays a kung fu girl and follower of Ji here, after collaborating with Zhang Guoli (who doubles as the director) previously in Love at First Fight. Following her absence in the third series, actress Yuan Li’s adorable character Du Xiaoyue is back in the storyline this time. Also, the addition of comedian Yan Ni, famous show host Liu Yiwei, and Dream of the Red Chamber rising starlet Yao Di helps inject new blood into the popular franchise.

Cast: Charmaine Sheh, Moses Chan, Kevin Cheng, Tavia Yeung, Michelle Yim, Susanna Kwan, Selena Li, Raymond Wong, Kara Hui and more…

Synopsis :

Imperial Household Bureau is responsible for managing and directing all household services to the Emperor and the Imperial family in Tong Dynasty. It is comprised of four departments, namely Jewels, Attire, Food and Furnishings. Lau Sam Ho (Charmaine Sheh) and Yiu Kam Ling (Tavia Yeung) are introduced into the bureau in their tender age and brought up in the disciplines of the palace. The two girls are diligent. Yuen Tsui Wan (Susanna Kwan), Head of the Jewels, and Chung Suet Ha (Michelle Yim), Head of the Attire, are both very fond of Ho for she is a kind-hearted young girl. Soon, they start fighting for the fellowship of Ho.

Ho always remembers her mother’s words left to her before she passed away, that she was told, ‘Doing good deeds, Speaking good words, Showing goodwill’. She lives her life of being gracious and kind-hearted in the palace. On the other hand, Ling believes her survival in palace is achieved through cruel and calculating tactics. She cheats and schemes her way to the top and finally becomes the concubine. Though she realizes that Ho has fallen in love with the chess master Ko Hin Yeung (Kevin Cheng), her jealousy still arouses by Ho’s attraction to the Emperor Lee Yi (Moses Chan). Fearing that she is losing power, she ruthlessly makes up a false allegation against Ho for murdering the Empress (Mary Hon) and condemns her to death. No matter how clever she is to scheme, things do not go the way she planned. By using a strong comparison of the two distinctive characters, Ho and Ling, the message of the drama is that “benevolence” is the only way to gain final victory.

Wind and Clouds Change
Mountains and Rivers are Chaotic
Secretly, the Heavens Control Destiny
After all Chance has been Calculated
Why not Return to the Way of the Righteous

Yip Yeung (Benny Chan Ho Man) is very interested in the “Back Pushing Diagrams”, which according to folk legend can foretell the future and help people to find luck and avoid tragedy. Yuen Hei (Steven Ma Chun Wai) capitalizes on this opportunity and tries to make money from him with a fake set of diagrams, but he is discovered by Lee Sing Tin, who has changed his name to Wan Chung Hok (Yuen Wah).

It turns out that he once presented the diagrams to the Emperor Zhao Kuangyin (Kwok Fung), helping him gain his throne. With a deep understanding in foretelling destinies, he accepts Yeung and Hei as his students and hopes to pass on his lifelong knowledge. Yeung later also becomes the student of another master Nam Fong Man (Lau Kong). Man uses Yeung in hopes of seizing back the imperial throne.

Yeung finds out from Man that he is a descendant from the last dynasty’s royal family. As a result, he uses his prediction skills in a pledge to turn back the Sung emperor and take back his own right to the throne; however, no matter how much he tries to calculate his destiny, he only meets with a tragic ending…
