Jiang Yi was once the queen of overwork among surgeons, but one day she died suddenly from exhaustion and was reborn as the daughter of a chancellor in the Great Yu Dynasty.
In this new life, she was determined to take good care of herself and lie flat, peacefully living out her days!
But before she had spent even a month lazing around, she was hauled off to the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
Nobody told me that curing the Crown Prince's illness and earning the emperor's favor would get me sent off to study traditional Chinese medicine!
Well, that's just great. I was reborn only to be forced to study medicine again, and a different kind at that.
For one reason or another, she kept accompanying the imperial physicians into the palace, where the Crown Prince would greet her with a cheerful smile. Jiang Yi gritted her teeth in frustration.
Later, when the ministers attacked her, the Crown Prince stood up for her and overruled their objections.
Jiang Yi felt her heart stir. Maybe this person wasn't so bad?

Yu Sui was the Crown Prince of the Great Yu Dynasty, The Outcast, second only to one and above all others. It was a pity that his health was poor.
During one of his bouts of illness, a young woman saved his life with a silver hairpin.
Afterward, he kept running into her in all sorts of situations. She always seemed to have some new and unusual medical technique to try, but why did she always look at him with... a hint of resentment?
He became somewhat interested in her, so when she found herself caught up in a storm of trouble, he stepped in to help.
The woman's eyes lit up at once.
Yu Sui's breath caught. Maybe this person was actually quite pretty?

Yu Sui: I've found you a scalpel and medicinal herbs, and even opened a clinic for you. Now, Divine Physician Jiang, can you spare some time to think about settling down?
Jiang Yi: ...Fine.
