Lin Wan, a modern ICU attending physician, died from overwork and awoke as Xiao Yunxi, the despised concubine-born daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's household. As she took over the original owner's mess, she discovered that this era offered more than silver needles and medicinal herbs: it also suited the ICU emergency-care principles she knew best. She used pharmacology to poison people in reverse and acupuncture to revive the dying. When her stepmother and legitimate elder sister slowly poisoned her birth mother, she made them suffer the same fate. When the emperor suffered an acute heart attack and the imperial physicians were helpless, she pulled him back from death's door. From the Duke's household to the Imperial Medical Academy, she relied on her modern medical skills to rise to the phoenix throne and change her own fate.
