Princess Medical Doctor

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

She is the Crown Prince’s fiancee, but on the night of their wedding, an edict was made and she was given off to marry the crippled and paralyzed God of War.

On their wedding night, the paralyzed groom pressed her under his body: “Do you want this prince to kill you or poison you?” Lin Chujiu was a famous surgeon so she didn’t feel threatened that easily. She turned and pressed the crippled man under her body: “Say, do you want me to completely waste your legs or waste your third leg?”

She is a genius surgeon doctor in the Modern Era that was transmigrated into the body of the Eldest Miss of the Lin Family.

He is a famous prince named as the God of War and was feared by many.

“I, Lin Chujiu, am not a good woman. I do not know how to write melodramatic words.”

“I am in love with you and willing to do anything for you. I will bear the blame of our country or even help you seize the vast territory of our motherland…”

“I hate you, I am willing to pull out your heart, take out your bones and after you lose your life I will destroy this picturesque country…”

I think this is one of those novels where I absolutely hated the male lead and I personally felt that he didn't deserve her

... more>>
Spoiler

maybe she would be better off just running off to the central country with a separate identity >_< I understand why she didn't though, it was probably a good choice as well but arrgghh the ML was such a jerk. Misunderstandings are one thing but almost all of their conflicts end with her life in danger

Spoiler

take that time where she noticed a problem with his treatment for example, she ended up with broken ribs and internal bleeding (I might be wrong, it's been a while) and he ditched her in the cold dungeon, alone, without medical help, overnight. SHE ALMOST DIED! He didn't even feel bad about it until like wayyy later when she almost died again.

Or we could talk about that time he used her as bait and she took an arrow to the chest and had to pull it out and operate on herself. Or that time he threw all his responsibilities on her while at war and the enemy commander forced her to eat poisonous food and she almost died AGAIN.

[collapse]

I'm actually surprised she managed to pull through with her horrible health. He probably didn't even remember that her predicted remaining lifespan is only like 3-4 years.

[collapse]

I think the relationship between them is built upon her sacrifices. The more times she risks her lives for him, the more positive feelings he would have for her. Gave it a 4 cuz the MC is honestly a good person even if the man doesn't deserve her... <<less

Objectively, this is a guilty pleasure. It has two main defects: the male lead and the female lead's cheat. The male is cold, beautiful without compare (of course), overbearing and is quite confused about the female lead.

One moment he is pleasantly surprised about how pleasantly "different" she is in comparison with other women, but the next moment he treats her badly. Why? Because he is unable to treat people in a decent way but at same time he expects her to feel grateful for the little attention he concedes her.... more>> I guess in future chapters he will redeem himself when he will madly fall in love with her, but, for now, he is unbearable. Then we have the very creative MC's cheat: a system which alerts her if there are sick people nearby and forces her to cure them otherwise the system will make her suffer or kill her eventually. It is clearly only a plot device to create "original" situations, and it annoys me how it stretches my sympathy for an author who goes miles away to elaborate a shred of plot.

Ignoring this two issues, I keep reading mainly because I like transmigrated story. At least, the female lead tries to keep her dignity refusing to bend to the difficult ML's personality and I hope she will not easily fall in love with him. It does not hurt that chapters are very short. The same cant be said about the translation that is barely acceptable and I am not a picky reader about syntax or grammar mistakes <<less

The chapter is so short, too short for convenient reading. The writing, dialog and translating is confusing. The only good thing in this novel is the overall story and premises. I wouldn't reccomend it. If you like this kind of story just read Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss

Entitled man-child treats everyone as a disposable tools. He physically and psychologically tortures his wife, who has saved his life a number of times. Yet he feels like he's entirely justified and it's everyone else's fault when they get upset.

"Oh. I used my wife as bait for a plot without telling her and she almost died. Now she won't talk to me. What's her problem? Don't I treat her well? I even threw her into a prison cell as a reward for her saving my life. The problem must be... more>> her!" -Male Lead

Up to this point, even the "villians" are of better moral character and more honest than this jackass.

I read to chapter 203 then started skipping around to see if things get better. They don't. This sh*t makes 50 Shades of Grey feel like a literary masterpiece and Christian Grey is pretty much a saint by comparasin.

He's also an idiot, and that is me being charitable.

There are only two characters in the story that actually come off as decent people. One is the protagonist, the other has nothing to do with the ML.

The only thing this story nails is having tension. The sort of tension that makes you keep reading because you want to know where the raging dumpsterfire is going. So I'll give it a star for that. <<less

Unpopular opinion I guess but tbh why does MC like ML? She transmigrated, so it's not as if she has known him long enough. He tries to kill her, dislikes her, distrusts her despite her saving his life/ health and having potential of healing his legs. ML meanwhile continues to be the high and mighty but utterly useless POS husband. He also allows a third-party to plot against himself (aka she would have destroyed his legs) and attacks/ injures MC and sends her to prison (when she is already super... more>> injured and in pain). When MC manages to prove herself (for a billionth time, if I may add), he decides to use her to heal his legs (like she had offered a billion times before). She does it. She heals his legs (with a fellow doctor who is super impressed with MC) and what does the ML do? Use his wonderfully strong legs to use MC as bait and almost kill her (MC is shot at with an arrow v v close to chest. She has to take out the arrow and perform surgery on herself in a moving carriage or else she would bleed to death). Meanwhile, the ML swoops in like a shitty, late-entry hero (after she has been shot in the chest) to kill the assassins aiming for her. He doesn't give her any warning, doesn't try to give her a decent set of guards. Nope.

Btw, if u r wondering - does he even say 'sorry'? (Not that it changes the sh*t he did, imo a sorry doesn't do shit). He doesn't. Coz he is some hoity-toity important person and he doesn't say sorry.

I skipped some chapters, MC finds out what he did (use her as bait) and feels hurt. But she is still in love with him coz f*ck logic and f*ck self-esteem and f*ck self-respect and f*ck dignity and f*ck pride and f*ck everything else coz women, no matter how brilliant they are, have only one way forward in this world - to get married and get her husband's approval.

So, f*ck this novel.

T/L is pretty good. Good T/L for a bad novel. Not the first time I have seen it, not the last time, I suspect. <<less

Gonna say some good things before I say anything bad. I love the main character, she's not really OP even with the medical system. She's just trying her best to stay alive by earning her place & proving her worth to her cold husband. Which she does many times the man is just ungrateful ugh. The translation was very good and understandable. I like the concept a lot, unlike other cheats hers doesn't renew her supplies she needs to be careful with her supplies. MC is very adaptable, thinking on... more>> her feet.

Now the ML I could do without him, he just drags down whatever I was enjoying. Like I get he's supposed be cold & cruel but usually by this point the cool aloof MLs warm up to their wives and show a gentle side to them (or in regards to them). He was heading that way but then
Spoiler

MC ends up destroying a rare plant to keep him from being poisoned, ends up using her own body to destroy the poisoned bath ML was in, got heavily injured & thrown in prison

[collapse]
and he never apologized for any of his actions for that incident or any others, sure his actions are reasonable choices during those situations. But come on, at least apologize afterwards, especially when she was right. I feel so bad for her, I just wanted her to run away from this tr*sh pile we call a male lead. She's not even trying to get him to love her or anything like that, she just needs his trust and respect in her actions. Sure he's starting to feel something for her but he's too abusive for my taste.

There are at least three other guys that would better choices for her, because at least they respect her and show concern. Hell she could run off, spend her time with no love interests & just treat patients when she needs to and I'd be happy. Never have I wanted for a ML to be replaced or written out, as badly as I do with this guy. I've seen black bellied & yandere leads before but this guy takes the cake as the most unlikable, just throw out the whole man. Honestly not sure if I'm even going to continue past this. <<less

Story itself is ok but the ML is so horrible that it ruins the story. He is a narcissistic psychopath. Everything and everyone exist to serve him and if they don't he will punish them! He literally nearly mu*ders the MC multiple times throughout the story but is still surprised that she wants to leave. He threatens, blackmails, and abuses the MC. His demands and expectations of her are incredibly unreasonable. She's putting in a 10 in effort and getting at most a 1 in return from him. Its not... more>> until the end of the story that any real development happens and its pretty small. I hate the ML. I would rather the MC just su*cide than continue putting up with his abusive bs. The rare small moments where the ML has any sentiment is not nearly enough to forgive the wave of awful. Especially hundreds of chapters of bs before he sort-of gets better (mostly MC conceding). <<less

This novel is giving me frustrations. It started good and tbh, I like that the FL is not OP like other doctors who transmigrated. She is a very realistic character with room for growth but there's one major problem (Actually, many, but I will focus on the main one) and that is:

... more>>
Spoiler

The ML has a very bad character development.

For the first 100 chapters, the FL did her best to prove to ML she is of use. And ML made use of her not just to increase his fame & popularity in the capital but also to get things done and spite his enemies. But in just a chapter or two, he completely forgot all that she did and would rather believe a stranger doctor and his daughter who he already knew has a hidden agenda.

Even if the FL injured herself to save his life, he threw her into the prison without food, medication, and change of clothes. Both her arms injured, ribs broken, with internal bleeding, she's basically at death's door. And when his resident doctor finally said "prepare for her funeral, she only has 30% chance to live", he's like, "whatever".

Since then she's proven that she's in the right but she had this attitude of "we're back to being strangers" with the ML but OMG, the ML equate her indifference to a child throwing tantrums. She literally almost lost her life, you know. And he hasn't really done anything to win her back. Rather, he keeps on threatening her to do this and that for him. My heart aches so much for the FL.

I keep reading on hopeful that the ML would finally do something to redeem himself but no, the ML who is supposed to be Mr. General God of War can't think of other ways to fight the Emperor's bullying (now that he can't use his wife). So he just spread rumors on northern country so they (northern) would attack their (eastern) country, therefore ravaging 3 innocent cities, therefore diverting the emperor's attention, also dragging FL's maternal family into the situation. So the ML to FL said, "I give you 6 months to heal my legs, how about 5 months? No, make it 1 month to decide and 3 months to heal me". Really. He only thought about that after the Emperor took his so-called "divine" doctor.

Oh, while our FL is recuperating from her injuries, he blocked all outside contact for the FL. He allowed the unloving dad to see her but not the loving grandmother. Only, when she's healed did he invite the grandmother in to make himself look good to our FL and so she would be grateful to him.


OMG, I'm so done with it even though I still have more to say I'm gonna stop at here.
[collapse]

As for the rest of the characters, they are all either plain, dumb or uninteresting.

Schemes and plots are average.

Politics is average.

Warfare is average.

Writing is bad. Some thoughts are repetitive. Things has to be explained again and again every other chapter as if the readers don't get it.

The only reason I continued reading it is for the main couple but even the ML is a big disappointment. So, I'm dropping this novel for good and moving on to the next one. <<less

Don't bother reading. ML is a d*ck who deserves a goddamn thrashing. I am disgusted with him. There's no story. It's just MC suffers, ML makes fun of her, uses her, hurts her, makes her feel like shit, lets her almost die, and then the cycle starts again.

I'm serious. It's absolutely disgusting. The ML is sick in the head.

I wish I'd never started reading this.

If this was a dark thriller where a woman gets reincarnated into Ancient China and gets gaslit, abused and nearly killed by the man she was forced to marry, I would have rated it 5 stars.

But apparently, we’re actually expected us to root for the male. This is supposed to be a romance novel.

I think the author has some issues to work through regarding women, because I can’t explain how this novel came to be in any other way.

I cannot believe I used to read this. After a few months or so I finally pick this up again. I was reading it before I go to sleep, but now I cannot sleep. I'm full of rage effin rage I need an outlet so I went here coz there's hardly any comment in the chapter, I thought I'm the only sane one there reading. So yeah, 10 chapters after my comeback and I'm so done. This novel is just pure abuse.

Spoiler

After ML flirted and kissed MC he just pushed her down the ground and make her bleed bcoz she didn't tell him her secret about the system. Like hell you were just making affectionate eyes with her earlier. And hell MC keeps saying she will leave ML but she just jumps right back into his arms anytime like nothing happened. And god his subordinates totally not respect her.

[collapse]

What is this shitty novel. It's almost midnight here and I still can't quench my ire. It starts around in this chapter where we see clearly that ML is a scum. It's all coming back to me now.

Spoiler

ML went to war and left MC in capital to fend off herself, she even did great and had given ML a life saving grace which was used in the war. So they are just writing letters to each other. And here's when the sht turns, when they finally reunited. ML is a scum a piece of cr*p.

[collapse]

This is the 2nd worst ML I've ever encountered. Bye! Don't want to see you anymore! I will put you in my dropped list. Erased from my bookmark!

Ps

I hardly drop novels since I know that some makes a comeback and a good twist at the end, but thank god for our comrade who bleached his eyes for this and gave us the ending. Salute! Now it's time to sleep! Fire extinguished!

Oh yeah you might think that this is worth the try coz of some few high rates but I assure you, it will turn bad around this chapter. <<less

Ok. So I just want to say one thing first: BE PATIENT WITH THE ML. I swear it gets better and you will not regret holding on despite the frustrating circumstances. The character development is very good in this one. This definitely deserves a five stars for me.

And yes, the MC indeed has one of the best personality out of all those female protag. You might question her choices sometimes but let me remind you that she has nowhere to go if she escapes or divorce the ML in this... more>> era of male dominant society and her husband is a Prince ok. Wherever she goes he can definitely find her, especially during their initial relationship, as he is a very cautious and he is suspicious of her. But the thing is, she is very firm in her feelings. She doesn't let him lead her on after THAT specific incident (AND I TOO WAS SO FRICKIN FRUSTRATED WITH THE ML during that time). She is not aloof, cold, naive or sweet. She is just right. A correct mixture I might say.

Regarding the ML, yes, be prepared for this initially-douche of a person. But can't really blame him as he has been through a lot and he can't help but be more extra careful on choosing people who can stay by his side. Because if he is not, he might have been killed hundreds of times since the one who doesn't like and wants him gone is his brother- the emperor. His brother is someone who commands the heavens so almost nothing is really impossible. His legs were already wasted so he can't really afford more lost on his side. It's not an excuse regarding his behavior towards the MC but please be reminded that
Spoiler

the original body where the MC is currently occupying has some kind of a relationship with the empress

[collapse]
And she is an absolute stranger to him. They have no feelings for each other initially. Though the MC has fallen for the ML first and done some great service for him, for all he knows she's just giving him some honey before giving the stick.

The MC and ML are the same on the aspect that they are very firm on their feelings and on theirselves. Both of them always tries to see the bigger picture, though not on the same situatuions-that is why there is often a misunderstanding.

But on the end, the ML will be very good to her. He worked hard to express his feelings and in order for her to gain her trust for him. It will be worth it. Trust me. You should hold on until around 700 chaps I guess? Cause the character development is slowly being integrated and that is what I love about this. There is no turning point. The feelings, respect etc. They have for each other is slowly built up for a much stronger relationship. <<less

Do you want a roller coaster ride of emotions and feelings??

This novel is for you.

I can totally understand the low reviews for this novel because this novel is deep and heavy.

... more>> I actually feel irritated too when the MC suffers too much, but I like this story's premise. It is realistic. When a modern woman transmigrates into an ancient setting where females have low authority and standing, chocolate chips and rainbow-filled life is what you won't really expect. Everything is suddenly different.

The personality of the characters are realistic, especially the ML. A big turn from the typical 'sudden' change in personality of MLs in ancient setting.

I also like the MC's personality too, at first, she focuses more on surviving, which we can expect because she's suddenly dumped into a new world. <<less

Amongst all the light novels I've read, the couple in this story has the strongest and most solid foundation in their relationship.

The FL and ML from the beginning do not have trust with each other. The story progressed from mistrust to ML slowly accepting the FL to threatening to kill her again then coaxing her then contradicting of beliefs and the ramble goes on. The ML totally gets the cake for being so hard headed at the beginning to the point that even if the FL voices out her discontent,... more>> he reasons out that he doesn't think that his decisions are wrong. His way of thinking though changed throughout the novel. Even the capricious behavior of the FL changed and she now understands the decisions of the ML. Well as always, the husband spoils the wife and follows her every command. Totally different from his personality in the beginning of the story.

Even the development of the side characters are on the good side too. I ain't gonna give out more spoilers though. But overall, this story gets into my Top 5 of most fave historical stories. Strongly recommending it! <<less

In my opinions this novel is great because FL is cleverly self reliant even though she not good express her emotion well to ML that why the ML often miss understood her.

ML also not good showing affection. I think in the relationship not 1 person can immediately believe someone after witnesses their parents deaths in front their eyes. ... more>> So in my conclusion this novel great for someone want to self reliant without depends on others person.

First time writing a review of sorts, so sorry for the rantiness of it all.

Honestly this is just a review on in my opinion I have read a story with the worse male lead ever, Ive read stories where the male lead r*pes that have a better reaction to traumatic events than this story. The Male Lead isn't just selfish he has the emotional maturity of a child, he doesn't know how to communicate and feels at all times superior to anyone he ever interacts with. When the story shifts... more>> the point of view from the protagonist to the male lead, instead of helping you like or in anyway sympathize with the male lead it only seems to cement that he is an as*hole who uses his authority to get what he wants. If you want a more traumatic beauty and the beast, with emotional abuse, and a relationship based on the inability for a person to ever treat there loved ones with a modicum of respect, trust, and any positive emotion in a relationship, regarless of unexplained reason at this point, then this is the story for you. <<less

The translator has done a really good job! :) But the story is utter crap! There have always been these type of cliché stories, genius girl/doctor/assassin/boss lady from modern world dies and wakes up in different world. She changes and becomes stronger and people take notice of this. But I'll admit, while it is a overused cliché, some of these novels are really good. Key word, "SOME". Definitely not this one.

... more>>
Spoiler

So, we start out with a girl named LN who was a famous doctor in her world, but then she dies. Wakes up in a new world with a medical system that will punish her if she ignores patients, even if they tried to kill her (Assassins on her wedding night, she had to safe their lives regardless of what they tried to do). Then we have a male lead, XT or W, who is cold and mysterious. He despises her and she's scared of him. I actually liked the part where she treated her maidservants normally, but didn't try to become friends with them or anything. I have read countless novels where maidservant and female lead becomes friends and do sisterly things together. So seeing something different was refreshing. To be honest, everything is okay in the novel until it gets to the point where the 1st tragic thing happens to LC (The bathtub, Divine Doctor Mo, his who*e of a daughter, and nearly dying for LC). What happened to her was bad, but even worse was W's attitude. LC went through all of that, getting majorly hurt, the humiliation, being thrown in prison, for a guy who didn't even apologize. Worse than even that, he actually thinks that she shouldn't be upset?! WTF?! But that's just the first event, and if it was only that time it would have been okay, but it happened a 2nd time. So, 2nd time, (LC is used as bait by W to lure in the famous assassin). She nearly died a second time, not to mention the excruciating pain she went through. What disappoints me the most isn't the way that W behaves, in fact that's actually expected. But how LC is portrayed as handling the situation. It's like she isn't allowed to be angry at him. In fact, she actually felt guilty after W helped her with something in the birthing (pregnant women needs help, her brother leaves, only W can help). Then after a while it seems likes she starts to forgive him really? Not to mention that W actually dared to downplay the 2nd situation saying that she would've have actually died and that she's alive. All of the above combined actually downgrades the whole trauma, and what she experienced, like oh it happened but LC isn't allowed to ACTUALLY get mad and angry. I mean I understand she's a princess and she needs to behave a certain way, but she cries a bit and what forgives him?! I honestly just can't even. Worst moment in a novel I've ever read!

Story 3/5, TL 3.5/5

This story is rather bland.. my ratings of 3/5 is quite generous.

The story is loaded with the usual plot armours like reincarnation, medical system, 'capable' FL, Tsundere ML and palace politics. Basically it has all the tropes that I love YET the story still falls flat.

... more>> I feel frustrated reading. I conclude that the author simply isn't clever enough and it is reflected by her insipid characters and simplistic story plot.

The political schemes and ploys are lame/ Low level... None of the characters, even the MCs strike me as particularly smart. I keep waiting for some suspense and mystery to egg me on to read, however even after 137 chapters I don't feel invested in the story at all.

Romance wise- it's super meh. The ML isn't entirely unlikeable but neither is he particularly charming....

I usually love Tsundere MLs and have no problem with slow-burn romance. I get that ML has to keep his guard up against FL and this is a typical hate-turns-love trope but he simply has too Low EQ. ML often regrets his actions but even behind the scenes he does nothing much to redeem himself because he is utterly clueless on how to handle FL.

Spoiler

FL saves ML from being poisoned by sacrificing herself. ML doubted her intentions and imprisoned her. Even after knowing that she was injured badly, he refused to part with his pride and withheld treatment. I simply don't understand his train of thoughts. FL almost died, but luckily she has her medical system which saved her life.

If ML is wise, he would have secretly sent the doctor to treat FL in the prison first without letting anyone know. Afterwhich he can continue to investigate the incident and determine if FL is truly guilty as charged.

FL (and I) definitely lost trust in ML for abandoning her when she needed help most.

[collapse]

I might continue reading this to fill up the void that Poison Genius Consort has left behind. I truly hope the story takes a turn for the better.

Please read Poison Genius Consort as it excels x100 in everything that this story hasn't deliver— truly intriguing plot, medical system, witty characters with depth, Tsundere ML, OP couple, hate-turns-love romance. <<less
