In the prosperous age of the Yuan Dynasty, the folk customs were humorous. Du Yunge was originally a country commoner, but he got involved in a fight between the rivers, lakes and temples due to a mistake in taking the "imperial edict". The gears of fate brought him together with Lin Ruoxi, the daughter of a powerful minister, Qin Dali, a hero, and Cheng Qiaoqiao, an assassin. With wit and humor, Yun Ge defuses dangers along the way, breaks the established plots of power, thwarts the ambition of powerful minister Shen Shouzhi, and exposes the conspiracy of the court. Between laughter and tears, he talks about his glorious life, and finally gains friendship and love, and also leads the little people to make a comeback against the wind.
