Having become an avid fan of the anime in recent years, I was intrigued to read the manga when I saw it available on my library app. Like with most manga in comparison to the anime, this offers you a deeper dive into the characters inner thoughts - something I personally really enjoy. 
I see the library has a few more volumes available, and I will 100% be checking them out. I might even buy a few more on kindle in the future.

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!
