Everyone in the city envies the Ye family's legitimate daughter for her good fortune. Though ugly, she managed to marry a noble family's young master, who moved into her home as her husband.

She thinks she's found a haven of tenderness, but six months later, she ends up in death row.

Before she dies, Ye Wanyu proudly holds up her right hand, missing its little finger. At last, she's finally evened the score.

She is the legitimate daughter of an alchemical family overseen by the Nine Clans. Born with a peach-blossom face, she has been forced to drink poisonous, supposedly nourishing tonics every day.

Disfigured and with her clan wiped out, Ye Wanyu thinks she has no chance of revenge in this life.

Reborn, she changes her face and name and enters the capital. She wears her learning like clothes, wields goldwork as a blade, and uses medicine to build connections. She presents a gold headdress to congratulate the commandery princess on her wedding, and in front of a hall full of nobles, makes her enemy Zhou Xiulian unable to forget her, yet leaves him utterly distraught.

With money and allies, killing her wicked ex-husband would be easy. But she also wants to assassinate the emperor, for the sake of the person who would hide his own face yet still walk beside her to the end.

Xuanwu Yunlou parts his thin lips and says coldly, "If you want to learn medicine for the sake of your face, that's only natural."

Ye Wanyu retorts, "Young Master, you don't happen to have some hidden ailment too, do you? We can treat it together. I'm clever enough that I might even surpass my teacher."
