Given that $F$ is the right focus of the hyperbola $C$: $\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}- \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1 (a > 0, b > 0)$, a perpendicular line is drawn from point $F$ to one of the asymptotes of $C$, with the foot of the perpendicular being $M$, and intersecting the other asymptote at point $N$. If $3\overrightarrow{MF} = \overrightarrow{FN}$, then the eccentricity of the hyperbola $C$ is _____.
