I'm just a medical girl who wants to make a living in the Imperial Hospital, but unexpectedly I become the only living person who knows the core secret.
The strange pattern on the ebony hairpin is the "soul-breaking grass" from southern Xinjiang.
The soothing soup that the queen gave to the beauty was the gentle and unparalleled medicine "Qian Ji Teng".
I rescued Lin Xiaoyi and made her my first ally.
I worked step by step, using the most mediocre prescriptions, and played the most thrilling game of chess.
But I didn't expect that the first person to see through all my disguises would be Dr. Zhang, whom the Queen trusted most.
He stopped me with a deep look in his eyes: "Doctor Xu, your recipe is very interesting."
My heart tightened: "Sir, you are joking, they are just ordinary herbs."
But he took a step closer and said in a low voice: "Usual? Using the fire of ginger to cover up the coolness of the licorice tips is an unusual technique."
It's over, he knows everything!
Does he want to expose me, or... Wants to recruit me into his gang?
In this deep palace, the most poisonous thing is never the medicine, but the human heart.
