[Ming Dynasty + Divine Doctor + Political Intrigue + Bringing Glory to the Nation]
In the forty-third year of the Jiajing era, the Imperial Medical Academy was at a loss, and the emperor's beloved consort was gravely ill. The overlooked ninth-rank physician Lu Anping spoke up in front of the court's imperial doctors, cutting straight to the truth: “This is phlegm stagnation combined with blood stasis. The root lies in the lungs, not the liver or spleen!”
The whole room was stunned! Fang Boqian, the academy's finest diagnostician, went deathly pale! Who could have imagined that these astonishing words would come from the son of a merchant who had bought his official post and spent two years idling in a medicine shop?
No one knew that he was a modern pharmacy clerk who had transmigrated into this body and knew nothing about the theories of traditional Chinese medicine! His predecessor had been an utterly useless wastrel. To avoid exposing himself, he kept to the medicine shop, chose his words carefully, and lived on tenterhooks.
When he is on the brink of disaster, the [Imperial Healer of the Apricot Grove] System activates! But it gives him no miraculous medicine or peerless medical texts! Every improvement in his abilities must come from something “truly and sincerely given by another person”!
The retired imperial physician's [Nine Needles of Master Yin] give him godlike diagnostic skills, allowing him to determine life and death by the slightest pulse!
A colleague's gift, a [Family-Heirloom Medicine Grinder], helps him master prescriptions with ease and find a chance of survival among the hundred herbs!
From distributing epidemic-prevention medicine to benefit the people, to inventing surgical instruments that astonish the court; from surviving amid palace power struggles to arguing his case before the imperial court. When foreign missionaries sneer at and humiliate him, calling traditional Chinese medicine backward, this humble physician develops a surgical suturing device far ahead of its time. He reaches the pinnacle of world medicine and wins recognition for physicians across the realm!
