The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 3

Maomao's sensational food-tasting performance at the garden banquet has made her the talk of the palace, but fame isn't the only reward she's reaped. Using her newly acquired collection of hairpins, the clever herbalist secures a rare chance to step beyond the palace walls and return to the pleasure district for a long-awaited reunion.

While catching up with her father and friends is a treat, Maomao quickly finds herself entangled in a fresh mystery that demands her unique skills. Between explaining the garden party's poisoned cup to Jinshi and navigating her old stomping grounds, this young investigator's brief window of freedom is anything but quiet.
