Shen Qingzhao, the first female Imperial College doctor in the Daning Dynasty, took the initiative to be transferred to the Suzhou Prefecture as Chief Registrar in order to fulfill the last wish of her late father, the Minister of Household Affairs, that "government affairs should be based on people's livelihood." Shen Qingzhao started from handling trivial government affairs such as tax account books and famine relief, and used pragmatic accounting skills and empathy for the people to solve a series of people's livelihood problems. In the process, he and the cold-blooded staff member Gu Huaijin went from ideological conflict to tacit cooperation, jointly promoting the optimization of local governance, and at the same time uncovering the truth that his father was framed for exposing tax corruption. In the end, he became the beloved "Master Shen" of the people. While fulfilling his father's last wish, he also found the value of his own life.
