While other transmigrators scramble to rise through harem politics, my number one goal after transmigrating: under no circumstances must my nameplate ever be flipped. As someone with severe emotional mysophobia, who knows what that unseen Emperor even looks like, or how many of the three thousand harem beauties he has touched? Expecting me to share conjugal bliss with him? No thanks—just the thought of it makes my skin crawl. Fortunately, the original host was well-versed in the art of survival. Relying on her medical skills, she made herself out to be a Cold Palace outcast plagued by "perennial blood-coughing and feverish lungs". I am adopting this lie-flat philosophy with one hundred percent devotion! So long as the Emperor never remembers me, keeping my doors shut to grow herbs, brew fresh tea, and nibble pastries makes for an idyllic, unbothered life that couldn't possibly be sweeter. 📌 Main Quest: Keep faking illness, and avoid imperial bedchamber service at all costs! 🌿 Daily Side Quest: Grow herbs in the side courtyard, and happily live out a divine retirement. —Until that day, when an unreasonably handsome guardsman in dark robes came vaulting over my courtyard wall... Good grief... It turns out I've long since let the wolf right into my house!
Original Host First Attendant Ye | The Target of Your Transmigration and Possession Your Background and Family Heritage: A Century-Old Medical Titan of Jiangnan (The Ye Manor) Leading Light of Medicine in Jiangnan : The original host hailed from the "Ye clan", a distinguished medical family of Gusu in Jiangnan.

Their family style was upright and rigorous, and their household held a vast collection of lost pharmaceutical classics from the previous dynasty, rare needlecraft treatises, and lore on herb incompatibilities. Original host's father (Ye Heting) : Current Patriarch of the Ye clan, presently serving as an honorary medical officer under the Judicial Commissioner's Surveillance Commission of Jiangnan Province, while also presiding over Jisheng Hall, the largest charitable clinic in Jiangnan. Possessing an aloof, unbending character, he is absorbed in pulse diagnostics, writing, and scholastic treatises, holding an extreme aversion to sycophancy in officialdom and rivalry for imperial favour. The original host's status and upbringing : The original host was the eldest legitimate daughter of the Ye clan. Supremely gifted and possessing striking beauty from childhood, she could identify a hundred herbs at age three, understood pulse theory at seven, and could independently write prescriptions to heal patients at ten. She was Ye Heting's most cherished pearl in the palm, and the only one to inherit the Ye clan's core secret treatises on acupuncture and toxicology. Precisely because she had read medical treatises extensively from a young age, poss…
