After being transmigrated into the body of a mistreated illegitimate daughter of a noble family, Gu Qingwu conceals her peerless medical skills and pretends to be timid and mediocre. All she wants is to protect her younger sister in peace; she wants nothing to do with family intrigue or court politics.
She secretly practices medicine in her spare time, but keeps running into Zhao Jingxing, the Imperial Censor whose name terrifies every official. Everyone says he is cold, ruthless, and heartless. In private, this man quietly helps her escape deadly traps, keeping his secret crush to himself and never saying a word. The contrast is irresistible.
Then there is Li Yuanhong, the young master of a noble family on the opposing side. He claims to love her to the bone, yet keeps scheming against her under the sway of political intrigue. Their endless tug-of-war between love and hate is truly exhausting.
But as one bizarre medical case after another unfolds, they gradually expose a shocking conspiracy that has lain buried in the court for years. Gu Qingwu can no longer hide the sharpness she once deliberately concealed.
One is a cold-faced censor who silently risks his life to stay by her side, keeping his feelings hidden. The other is a noble family’s son entangled with her in love and hate, unable to control his own fate. As turmoil sweeps through the court, where will Gu Qingwu, armed with the blade of her medical skills, go, and whom will she choose?
The pace is a little slower in the front, but it gets better and better towards the back!
