Ten years ago, the entire Shen family was massacred overnight, leaving only the young Shen Song alive. Shen Song studied hard day and night to overturn the case and seek revenge, and finally won the palace examination. He hoped that the emperor would thoroughly investigate the old case for the Shen family, but the emperor demoted him to the people. Seeing the darkness behind the highest power, Shen Song was completely disappointed with the court and the government, and became a folk cook. Chef Shen Song was content with the status quo and seemed to have let go of his hatred. Until the Empress Dowager's Qianqiu Festival, the Huamen Tower caught fire and dozens of bones were dug out. The prefect was confined to the official road and did nothing. Shen Song angrily revealed the imperial edict and became the emperor's folk walker. As the investigation deepened, one strange case after another followed. Shen Song met Li Qin'er, Gongsun Li, Zhan Mao'er and others, and formed a deep friendship. The truth of the Shen family's genocide gradually surfaced, but powerful enemies were eyeing them in the dark. A love-hate relationship intertwined with conspiracy, betrayal and family and country secrets is entangled. Thanks to their efforts, the clouds have finally been cleared and a bright future has arrived.
