Lin Weiwei, a modern forensic pathologist with the Ministry of State Security, transmigrates one day and becomes the bride sent to bring good fortune to a coroner in ancient Qingyun County.
When faced with the ignorant superstition that the River God is claiming lives, she exposes a chemical trick in front of everyone. When a headless corpse case arises, she uses skull reconstruction to draw the victim's face. The seventh prince, Yun Yichen, who is traveling incognito, is impressed by her and offers her a high-ranking post in the capital. Yet her seemingly frail husband pushes a list in front of her late one night and smiles. “My dear, which illness in this land shall we treat first?”
From then on, she wields modern science in one hand and criminal investigation and political intrigue in the other, navigating between the prince and her husband. She solves bizarre cases, untangles strange poisons, battles the powerful, and ventures into the palace. When the truth behind the struggle for imperial power is revealed, she will use knowledge beyond her time not only to clear the names of the wronged dead, but also to prescribe a brand-new remedy for this age and usher in a golden era.
