Peerless Physician: The Path of a Foolish Eldest Daughter's Rise to Power

The Great Leap Forward, the tenth year of Yongfeng.

Black Fox Mountain, on the outskirts of Shihu Town in Northwest China.

This place, once a bandit stronghold for miles around, is now brightly decorated and filled with a grand feast.

Beneath the festive atmosphere were rows of mournful faces.

Today is the wedding day of the second-in-command of the mountain village, but the bride jumped off a cliff.

"Damn it! With war every year, she could have a life of plenty if she married the second-in-command. Why is she so narrow-minded? She really doesn't know how to enjoy life."

"What's so great about a young lady who can read and write? How dare she look down on our elegant and charming second-in-command?"

"If there weren't no girls within a hundred miles that our second-in-command would have taken a liking to, why would he have married this orphan?"

"They look down on us because we're bandits. If it weren't for making a living, who would want to be a bandit?"

The bandits whispered among themselves, expressing their indignation at the injustice done to them and their second-in-command.

Below the cliff, a dense forest stretches endlessly, resembling a magnificent painting. At the edge of the cliff, a towering ancient tree, seven or eight zhang tall, stands majestically, its branches and leaves abundant. A touch of red at the top of the tree is like the finishing touch, standing out conspicuously among the lush greenery.

Gu Xinyue woke up in pain, the pain all over her body was unbearable, and her arms were so sore that she couldn't lift them. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the cliff covered with green vines. Looking up at the azure sky, she felt the fresh air rushing towards her.

Her body felt unsteady, as if she were sitting on a small boat in a storm. She looked around and found herself in a large tree. "A forest? How did I suddenly end up here?"

Weren't we just researching the latest all-purpose testing scanner in the hospital? This device is extremely fast at testing and analysis, capable of scanning various parts of the body. The department head said that the chip in this device has powerful functions and memory capabilities. Originally, the developers wanted to implant the chip into the human body, but for various reasons, this was not achieved.

She kept testing the device's functions, getting more and more excited as she tried, until she became so excited that she seemed to suddenly black out.

Suddenly, she had a splitting headache, and many images flashed through her mind. She had actually transmigrated, transmigrated into the body of a 14-year-old girl with the same name as her, and transmigrated to the Great Leap Forward Dynasty, which had never existed in history.

She, a distinguished medical doctoral student, unexpectedly transmigrated into the body of a foolish and domineering villain.

The original owner of the body was the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Changning, and her father was a border general. Unfortunately, he disappeared five years ago.

At the age of six, he unfortunately fell from a rockery, lost his memory, and became mentally challenged.

When she was nine years old, a Taoist priest predicted that she was a cursed lone star and that if she did not leave the Gu family, the Gu family would suffer one misfortune after another, and her relatives would be in danger of losing their lives.

So she left the capital and came to Zhuangzi in Shihu Town.

Now she is fourteen years old, having inherited her parents' stunning good looks and grown into a graceful young woman, but her intelligence is like that of a six-year-old child.

She was the apple of her parents' eye. Five years ago, her father went missing, and her mother said she would come to live with her in the village. However, she ended up going alone.

Five years have passed, and she has not seen her mother or her father. She thought she had been abandoned by her parents and felt a deep sense of loss.

Her parents loved her dearly. Even though she was mentally challenged, her mother never gave up on her and patiently taught her music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

Gu Xinyue thought that the original owner's parents had not come to visit in the past five years, and there must be a reason for it, which the original owner did not know.

Thinking of her biological parents, Gu Xinyue felt very envious. She was an orphan and had always longed to have parents since she was a child. Without parents, she had to rely on her own efforts to get what she wanted.

For 25 years, in her memory, everything was due to her hard work and diligence. Even her doctoral dissertation was completed. How could she have time-traveled?

"Could it be that I transmigrated here to make up for the regrets in my life?" Gu Xinyue murmured to herself. Her eyes gradually brightened, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

In this unfamiliar world, she experienced the warmth and happiness of parental love in her memories. So this is what it feels like to be a child with parents! Her heart felt warm and fuzzy.

She truly felt her parents' meticulous care and love. This precious affection filled the long-standing emptiness and loneliness in her heart, making her radiate new vitality and energy.

Since she's already here, she might as well make the best of it. She wants to return to the capital, wash away all the humiliation of her original self, find her parents, and enjoy their love and a happy life.

Her situation is not optimistic now; she has an arrogant fool, a jinx, and the people around her are also restless.

Yesterday, the maid Xiaomei urged the original owner to go to Qiji Teahouse for tea. After arriving at the teahouse, Xiaomei served her a cup of tea and then left. While she was in a daze, she was abducted from the teahouse.

Two fierce old women told her that she would soon be the second-in-command of Black Fox Mountain. Hearing the name Black Fox Mountain, she knew it was bandit territory. Helpless and not wanting to bring shame to her family, she attempted to run into a pillar but failed. The old women then forced her to drink a powerful sleeping potion.

She woke up today in a simple room, her stomach growling with hunger, so the maidservant on guard had to fetch her some food.

The thought that she was the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Changning, and that marrying a bandit would bring shame to her relatives in the capital, made her think that it would be better to die.

So Gu Xinyue took advantage of the maid's absence and slipped out of the house. She looked around and a sense of helplessness and fear welled up in her heart. She never expected that the house was located on the top of a mountain, with only one road leading to the mountainside.

Gu Xinyue gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and was about to look for another way down the mountain when the maid and two other men caught up with her from a side path. Gu Xinyue had no choice but to run forward desperately. Before long, she reached a dead end, and in front of her was a cliff!

Innocence or life? Gu Xinyue jumped without hesitation.

The original owner of this body perished, and she transmigrated into this body.

The once illustrious Marquis's mansion suddenly lost a garrison commander, which naturally displeased the emperor, making the mansion's survival difficult.

If she wants to return to her parents, she must first leave the forest and then return to the manor to deal with those who killed her. Otherwise, she will die before she even sees her parents.

The rumbling sound of hunger in her stomach reminded her that this fresh air couldn't replace food.

Gu Xinyue struggled to get up, turned around and stared at the forest in front of her. The boundless greenery came into view, and the dense trees separated the sunlight from the earth like a screen.

In this silent and vast forest, faint sounds occasionally drifted through, highlighting its vibrant life. Gazing at the undulating peaks before her, she couldn't help but wonder how she could escape this expansive forest.

Why is it so difficult for her to return to her parents? Alas! Things need to be done one by one. The most urgent task is to find a way out of the forest and back to the village.

Suddenly, Gu Xinyue spotted a wooden house a hundred feet away. She was overjoyed and observed it closely for a long time. She noticed that the greenery next to the house was different from the rest of the place. Under the afternoon sun, a bright starlight path formed in that lush greenery. It turned out to be a lake.

"Wow, that's great! I won't get lost in the forest anymore." There must have been people living there before. That's hope. Let's go check out the cabin first. But how do I get down there?

Gu Xinyue, who was observing the treetop, suddenly opened her eyes wide and her body stiffened. She discovered that a bamboo viper, as thick as a forearm, was flicking its red tongue about ten feet away. She didn't want to be poisoned by the snake, so she didn't need to think about how to get down. She just jumped down, and the branches and leaves of the tree could cushion her fall.

Gu Xinyue quickly rolled backward, sliding down a branch and making snapping noises as she fell freely before landing with a thud. Before she could even touch her sore spot, Gu Xinyue scrambled to her feet and ran towards the winding path.

She slowed her pace after walking about ten feet away from the big tree. Wildflowers of various colors were blooming on both sides of the path, filling the air with their fragrance. The moss under her feet was soft and gentle.

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Xinyue saw the wooden house. She quickened her pace and walked forward, only to find herself at the edge of a cliff. Below was a small basin, about 50 zhang long, 20 zhang wide, and 10 zhang deep, covered with lush green vegetation.

The pool, about 1.3 acres in size, is crystal clear and emerald green. About 3 zhang (approximately 1.5 acres) beside the pool is a bamboo house, its yellow color adding a touch of human warmth to the basin.

Gu Xinyue pondered how to reach the bamboo house. She thought that if she walked along the edge of the cliff, she would eventually find a way down.

Gu Xinyue planned to walk along the edge of the cliff, but as soon as she turned around, she saw a large tiger staring at her from the left. Oh no, she didn't have the skill of Wu Song fighting a tiger with his bare hands.

A tingling sensation ran down her scalp, her jaw clenched, her heart nearly suffocated, her hands slowly rubbing the outside of her thighs, a chill ran down her back, and she gently turned her body to the left.

Oh no! There's a tiger in front and a wolf behind; three wolves are crouching in the bushes.
