The Imperial Hospital of the Dajing Dynasty, on the surface, is a holy place for doctors to save lives and heal the wounded, but in fact it is a Shura field where power struggles. The position of the president of the hospital is vacant, and three major factions are fighting openly and secretly: the "Danding Sect" controls royal medicinal materials and uses warming and magical magic to win over the courtiers; the "Needle Stone Sect" is good at the secret knowledge of meridians and binds the royal family with its emergency and life-saving skills; the "Poison Medicine Sect" hides in the dark, uses secret medicine to control people's hearts, and has hidden ambitions.
The new court judge, Su Jingran, possesses the family's unique skill of "nine vitality needles". He wanted to rely on his medical skills to gain a foothold, but he was forced to get involved in the storm. He not only has to deal with the blockade of medicinal materials by the Danding Sect, crack the acupuncture trap of the Acupuncture Sect, but also beware of the silent assassination of the Poison Doctor Sect. The pharmacy of Taiyuan Hospital is a Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and the operating table is a competition ground. A piece of medicine can determine life or death, and a silver needle can decide the outcome.
When Su Jingran discovered that the death of Yuan Zheng hid a shocking conspiracy, and that a palace coup was involved behind the power struggle, the scalpels and silver needles in his hands were no longer just for saving people - should he stick to the benevolence of a doctor, or should he hold on to power to determine the outcome? In this medical mansion where corpses are wrapped in white clothes and scented medicine hides blades, a life-and-death battle with medical skills as the sword and power as the target is slowly beginning.
