The Medical Queen's Rise to Power

>I was reborn as a female physician whom her stepmother had tortured to death. The original owner's memories end in a dark basement.

>In name, I'm an orphan; in truth, I'm the sect leader's illegitimate daughter. I survive by teaching myself medicine, yet still can't escape death.

>Reborn, I wield silver needles in my left hand and poison in my right, saving high officials and recruiting followers.

>A girl in red bursts into my world with a sword: “You saved me when we were children. Now it's my turn to protect you.”

>Three men are obsessed with me: the chancellor's son uses his influence to clear a path for me, the county lord's son keeps his unspoken love buried, and my deranged third brother is infatuated with my stepsister.

>When my family collapses and only my mad father remains, I roll a silver needle between my fingers and smile. “Time to settle the score.”

>But she, always dressed in red, appears whenever I'm in danger, gently brushing the bloodstained lapel of my robe with her fingertips. “You even make revenge look beautiful.”
