Daliang Dynasty, Shangshu Mansion in the capital.
Lin Wantang is the most inconspicuous concubine in the Shangshu Mansion. Her biological mother died young, so she lives a cautious life in this deep mansion. Her aunt, Mrs. Wang, was kind on the surface, but secretly she deducted money from her, reduced her expenses, and even gave up her personal maid to a cheater. Her eldest sister, Lin Yuyao, regarded her as a thorn in her side, and would step on her whenever she got the chance - making her embarrassed in public at a banquet, pushing her into the water in spring, and "accidentally" spilling leftover tea all over her in winter.
Everyone in the house knew that the third girl was a poor person who no one cared about.
But no one knew that Lin Wantang had inherited an extraordinary talent for medical skills - that was the only thing left to her by her biological mother, a incomplete medical book, a few silver needles, and an innate keen perception of the medicinal properties of plants and trees.
By chance, she rescued a critically ill old woman in a back street. The silver needle fell into her hole and everything moved smoothly. This move was noticed by the world's miracle doctor Zhou Muchen. Zhou Muchen has been practicing medicine for thirty years and has seen countless patients, but this is the first time he has seen a boudoir girl perform acupuncture with such skill and precision. He immediately accepted her as his disciple and taught her everything he could.
From a concubine who no one cares about to a goddess doctor respected by everyone in the capital, Lin Wantang's counterattack has not been smooth sailing. The aunt's mother's difficulties, the aunt's frame-up, and the open and covert attacks in the deep house compound are shocking at every step. But with a silver needle in her hand and a beautiful mind, she healed the nobles in the palace with her wonderful hands and carved out a bright future for herself.
She is a concubine, but she is not willing to be a concubine.
She used her medical skills as an edge to carve out her own beautiful path to Beijing.
