Jiang Xueyao was just a country girl until one day she came to the capital and accidentally saved Prince Rui, the third prince. From then on, she was swept into the whirlpool of royal power struggles.
She thought she was simply treating the sick and saving lives. But Prince Liang kept pressuring her at every turn. After an assassination attempt failed, he even resorted to the underhanded tactic of poisoning her, nearly killing her! More shocking still, she discovered that she was a descendant of the Yong’an Marquis household, massacred more than a decade ago!
Just how sinister and ruthless is Prince Liang?
Furious that his plans had been exposed, he swore to eliminate Jiang Xueyao at any cost.
When open assassination failed, he secretly used a colorless, odorless poison, hoping to kill her without a trace.
And all of this was inseparable from the old case involving the Yong’an Marquis household, a case so far-reaching it had even alarmed the emperor! Even the palace consorts were on edge, trying to cover something up...
Jiang Xueyao had come close to death. She had no desire to fight for power, but in the capital, danger lurked around every corner, leaving her no choice but to fight! Relying on her medical skills and extraordinary courage, she rolled up her sleeves and decided to stop sitting back and waiting for death.
Through her efforts, the Yong’an Marquis household was cleared of its unjust charges, the true culprit behind the scenes had nowhere to hide, and the mysteries surrounding the old case buried deep within the royal family were unraveled layer by layer!
Those who had thought they could cover the sky with one hand and toy with her as they pleased ended up sobbing in their prison cells. And as for Prince Rui, who was always there to advise and protect her, and eventually spoiled her into becoming his princess consort... that’s another charming story altogether.
