Medicine and Strategy Conquer the World

Pu Wei, a gifted doctor born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, grew up surrounded by medicine and became obsessed with it. At just twenty, she earned the title of Hua Xia's miracle doctor, famed for bringing the dying back to life. She was also the youngest forensic pathology PhD to study in the United States. Because she studied medicinal herbs in such meticulous detail, she accidentally fell off a cliff while gathering them in the mountains, plunged through time and space, and transmigrated to another world. When she woke to find people in long hair and robes, she took it all in stride. After unexpectedly saving the county magistrate's son, she landed a job as a coroner and set about making a living in ancient times. With her superb modern forensic skills, she solved one strange case after another and made a name for herself in the county. A single silver needle was enough to drive off an entire band of assassins and send a chill through everyone who saw it. Her autopsy analysis reconstructed an assassination scene, earning one amazed compliment after another. She opened a medical clinic, diagnosing patients by inspection, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking, and living up to her reputation as a miracle doctor. Street beggars, wandering heroes, and palace nobility alike became her friends. She knew every acupoint on the body and could use them to kill or save. She knew every poisonous plant and herb and could heal or poison. She saw through the shifting ways of the world and knew when to advance or retreat. No one knew where she came from or where she was going, yet no one could forget her aloof, mistlike bearing or her peerless beauty. She saved a beggar on a whim, only to end up with a clingy nuisance she couldn't shake off. He changed his clothes and looked respectable enough, but his temper was still unbearably haughty. Fine, then: he could work as a medicine-fetching boy at her clinic. Wasn't he a beggar? Then why was he surrounded by expert bodyguards? Wasn't his background completely innocent? Then why was he constantly being hunted, dragging her into trouble along with him? Wasn't he all alone in the world? Then why did he take her to a grand palace and start calling people Mom and Dad? At first, she sought to practice medicine, while he sought to rule the world. When they first met, she sought to practice medicine, while he sought to win her. In the end, they stood side by side, smiling as they watched over the world. Scene One: “If you move again, you can forget about keeping that arm!” The woman glanced coolly at the restless man in bed. “If I don't move, how will I get you to look up at me?” “...” Scene Two: “My back hurts!” He edged closer to her. “Weak kidneys. You need treatment!” She jabbed a silver needle at him without mercy. “No need to waste a needle. How about you treat me in person?” “...” All descriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, forensic medicine, and forensic identification are based on research and reference materials.
