Shuang feng ji yuan (1966, Hong Kong)



The female prince
 Ivy Ling Po played several film roles in which she was a female warrior, and several in which she played a young man. In this film she plays an intermediate role, of a female character, Feng-hsiao Ching, who has to pretend to be a man, for comedy effect.

Complicated family situations lead to her disguising herself as her own husband (otherwise played by her real-life husband and frequent co-star, Han Chin), who has been unjustly imprisoned.

In disguise she heads off for the capital, where she ends up participating in the national Confucian scholar examination, doing quite well, leading eventually to a comedic romance with the Emperor's daughter.

The film is also known as The Female Prince.
