Phoenix in the Palm!

A heart devoted to saving lives, a body of unyielding pride.

She only wanted to make a living as a physician, but was forced to play the game and contend with the whole world.

The Imperial Medical Academy was framed, her family destroyed. The physician Yun Wanyi enters the palace alone, carrying her medical skills and a blood debt of vengeance.

She once believed the palace was a prison, and that keeping her head down would be enough to survive.

Little did she know that from the moment she stepped through the vermilion walls, she had become a pawn on a board, with no say in her own fate.

The empress is overbearing and wants to grind her into dust; the noble consort feigns kindness, but beneath her smiling face lurks murderous intent; the virtuous consort is venomous, using witchcraft to kill without a trace.

It takes only one night to go from basking in favor to being a discarded consort in the Cold Palace.

When she loses her child and her closest friend dies a tragic death, she endures every kind of torment on a snowy night before finally understanding:

In this place that devours people, kindness leads only to death. Medicine can save lives, but it can also take them.

From then on, she uses compassion as her shield and strategy as her blade, advancing one step at a time through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

The emperor who once cast her aside like a worn-out shoe reaches out to her on the day she rises from the ashes, offering to rule the world at her side.

His gaze is deep as the sea. “Yun Wanyi, stay by my side. I’ll share this vast realm with you.”

She looks back at the nine-tiered palace that imprisoned her, tempered her, and ultimately made her who she is, and smiles radiantly.

From pawn to player, from a possession in someone’s hand to a phoenix among women: this time, she will write the rules of the world.
