Don't you love it when the fmc literally plays with poisons? Because I sure as hell do.🤩😍🥳
I'm pretty sure who the MMC is, but reading too much romance has taught me never trust the first set of cast in any series. You never know who'll end up dead soon. 🌚

Kidnapped and forced into servitude at the Emperor's inner palace, Maomao quickly rises to lady-in-waiting after she uses her apothecary skills to solve the palace curse. In her new position, Maomao starts solving other mysteries too, but perhaps not the mystery of the attractive Jinshi...
A lovely light story with a cosy plot, sweet characters, and interesting puzzles. Much too short for the price and perhaps better consumed as a tv series binge watch!

I adore the anime adaptation of this manga so I just had to give reading it a shot! I love the art style in the manga and it's always really cool to see comparisons between the adaptation and the manga. I still adore the story and I'm so excited to read through the manga and see what lies ahead!
Content Warnings
Graphic: Medical content
Moderate: Child death, Self harm, Kidnapping, Grief
Minor: Bullying, Trafficking
Medical Content (Maomao is an apothecary so there is a lot of medical talk and content) | Child Death & Grief (Consort Lihua loses her infant son to poison and grieves his loss) | Kidnapping (Maomao is kidnapped and sold to the palace) | Self Harm (Maomao experiments on herself and we do get to see her injuries and where they came from) | Bullying (general bullying between the women of the Inner Court; Consort Lihua also slaps Consort Gyokuyo) | Trafficking (it's explained, in passing, that Maomao's kidnapping was part of a larger trafficking ring that abducts girls and sells them to the palace)
