Ye Zhen, a modern surgeon from the twenty-first century, is heading home to rest after an exhausting shift when she gets into a car accident. When she wakes, she discovers she has transmigrated to the historically nonexistent Nanye Dynasty, where she is the daughter of a disgraced official and is being sent to the palace for the selection of imperial consorts. Her instinct to save lives draws her into palace intrigue. “Ye Zhen relies on her calm demeanor and modern medical knowledge to solve the problems of the ancient palace. ‘In the Imperial Medical Bureau’s eyes, a woman practicing medicine is a violation of convention. In my eyes, letting someone die when you could save them is the real outrage.’”
