After clearing her mother's name and setting right the injustice done to her, Shen Ci, the orphan of the Jing'an Marquisate, carries on her mother Su Wanniang's compassionate heart and medical skills. She establishes Anhe Hall and Wanniang's Medical School, upholding the medical precept, "Compassion at the heart, skill in healing," and devoting herself to saving lives.
Shen Ci improves prescriptions and controls epidemics, breaks down prejudice against women practicing medicine, trains a large number of physicians, and helps put policies for affordable medical care into practice, bringing medical treatment to borderlands, coastal regions, and remote mountain villages. With Xiao Jue's support, she promotes exchanges between Chinese and foreign medicine, spreading the medical knowledge of the Central Plains to the Western Regions, Japan, and Southeast Asia, while also incorporating the strengths of foreign medical practices to complete the Comprehensive Anhe Formulary for Saving Lives.
After generations of continuation, successors such as Lin Wanqing and Su Nianci carry on the work and establish Anhe branches overseas. They compile the Definitive Complete Edition of the Anhe Formulary for Saving Lives, unifying the medical tradition. In the end, the torch of medicine is passed down for more than a century. Official medical halls and medical schools spread across the land and overseas, epidemics disappear, and the people live in health and peace. Shen Ci's compassion and medical skills cross mountains and seas, creating a legend of healing that benefits the world for generations and brings lasting peace and prosperity.
