Hyuganatsu. 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 investigates the mysterious deaths of the emperor’s children and secretly intervenes to save a life, but her actions don’t go unnoticed. The handsome eunuch Jinshi catches her by surprise and pushes her into becoming one of Consort Gyokuyo’s ladies-in-waiting—the food taster, a role she’s perfectly suited for because of her expertise in herbology, medicine, and—perhaps most importantly—poison.
