Dragon Inn (1967) is set in 15th-century China during the Ming dynasty after Emperor Yingzong has returned to power following a palace coup. Yu Qian, the War Minister, is falsely accused of treason and executed, and his family members are exiled to a remote town in northwest China. Wu Ning, the owner of Dragon Gate Inn in the town, had previously served under Yu Qian and now sees it as his duty to protect the Yu family. He recruits three highly-skilled martial artists – Shih Chun as Hsiao Shao-Tzu, Pai Ying as Tsao Shao Chin, Polly Shang-Kuan Ling-Feng as Miss Chu Huei, Miao Tian as Pi Shao-Tung, and Han Ying-Chieh as Mao Zong-Xian – to help him defeat the treacherous eunuch Cao Shaoqin and his men.
