When he opened his eyes, the top forensic doctor became the legitimate daughter of the ancient Hou Mansion whose engagement had just been broken off. The fiancé marries another princess, the family is involved in a rebellion, and the whole family is about to be executed.
"When it comes, break it!" Shen Qingyue opened the coffin and performed an autopsy in court, using modern forensic science to clear away the grievances. Silver needles can detect poisons and bones can tell the difference between men and women, which stunned the civil and military officials of the entire court. The emperor personally granted the title of "female punishment", but she turned around and founded a women's school.
The prince, who had broken off their engagement in the past, knelt down and begged for reconciliation. She chuckled: "Sir, please respect yourself." The powerful chief minister blushed: "When I don't respect myself, girl, don't regret it."
When she was arguing with the scholars in the court, he prepared a soft sedan outside the palace; when she returned from the autopsy late at night, he was waiting at the Yamen with a lantern. Everyone said that Mr. Shofu was bewitched by a witch, until one morning——
"I would like to appoint Miss Shen as Minister of Justice."
"How can a woman be an official?!"
"Then I resign and become her master."
From the abandoned daughter of a noble family to the first female official in the dynasty, Shen Qingyue made the entire era make way for women. And the duplicitous Chief Assistant eventually became her staunchest ally and... The gentlest home.
