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 is called upon to solve the riddle that a royal metalsmith left in his will. Next, she's asked to utilize her cosmetics skills to help Jinshi travel incognito for business in the city. Disparate as these and other incidents may seem, Maomao soon realizes that the cases she's solved so far are connected to a lethal conspiracy--and that a cunning tactician is lurking in the shadows.
