I Rule the Emperor's Harem

Modern medical cosmetologist Luo Yunyu unexpectedly transmigrates into the harem of the Great Xia dynasty, rising from a palace maid who sweeps floors to an astonishing comeback. Armed with a solid foundation in traditional Chinese medicine and a modern medical mindset, she uses moxibustion to drive out parasites and expose witchcraft, acupuncture to reveal meridians and treat stubborn ailments, and carefully combined herbs to neutralize deadly poisons. Faced with Consort Chu Peixue's poisoned silver hairpin, the Empress Dowager's inscrutable scrutiny, and the Western Regions' shaman doctors with their sinister spells, she turns her beauty salon's business savvy into a set of rules for survival in the harem.

From an official in the Imperial Pharmacy to the ruler of the Six Palaces, Luo Yunyu uses the Five Phases and Six Qi from The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon to predict epidemics, applies the Six Stages of Syndrome Differentiation from Treatise on Cold Damage to see through traps, and employs ancient methods from Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold to overcome crises. When a plague sweeps the northern frontier, she cultivates penicillin from moldy tangerines. When framed with witchcraft, she turns the tide with a prediction of a solar eclipse.

When palace intrigue meets the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine, every noble lady becomes a patient to be examined.

Watch a beautician take charge of the imperial seal, with the fragrance of herbs rivaling a million troops.

This is not only a contest of political schemes and true affection, but also a dazzling showcase of traditional medicine!
