Maomao’s life as an apothecary is turned upside down when she’s abducted and sold to the Inner Palace as a maid. She’s determined to serve out her contract without drawing attention to herself, but her insatiable curiosity and passion for poisons pull her into a world of palace mysteries!
Maomao returns to Consort Gyokuyo’s service in the inner palace, but Jinshi once again asks for her aid, this time with a seemingly impossible request. Knowing that the sly tactician Lakan put him up to this, Maomao is eager to rise to the challenge and teach Lakan a lesson! Later, a trading caravan brings items from the far west to the inner palace, but something about the wares offered to Consort Gyokuyo raises red flags in Maomao’s mind.
