Description
In the glittering imperial palace, young Maomao is drawn into a world of courtly intrigue, hidden rivalries, and mysterious illnesses. A former apothecary with an incisive mind and an unusual fascination with poisons, she uses her medical knowledge to investigate strange occurrences that others would rather ignore. As Maomao navigates the dangerous rules of palace life, her sharp observations bring her to the attention of powerful figures—and place her increasingly close to peril. Blending historical mystery, witty character drama, and richly detailed court life, this first volume introduces an intelligent and compelling heroine in a captivating light novel series.
