[A ruthless doctor + grooming an emperor + power politics through surgery: from death-row prisoner to imperial mentor.]
Reincarnated as the son of an imperial physician, only to await death in the Imperial Prison? Shi Cong gives a cold laugh. “The Ming Dynasty is terminally ill. Time to operate!”
He presses a scalpel to the neck of the young heir apparent. “Your Highness, your illness isn’t in your body. It’s in your weak bones.”
From then on, a condemned prisoner in the Imperial Prison becomes the empire’s sharpest “scalpel.” Shi Cong intends to treat more than just people: he will cure a dynasty sick for a thousand years.
