![]() ![]() Jinshi hasn’t just brought Maomao on-board as a food taster though, he’s also noticed how intelligent she is and is prepared to make full use of her abilities to help solve any mysteries that pop up around the inner palace. Maomao isn’t thrilled to be in a higher paying position with more of her pay going back to the kidnappers, but quickly changes her tune when she realises the position means she has more free time to practise medicine again! ![]() Maomao lives her days peacefully, going about her duties, that is until she finds herself solving the mystery behind some of the consorts and their offspring falling ill.Īfterwards, she’s picked up by the head eunuch, Jinshi, who has noticed Maomao’s abilities with medicine and feels she would be better suited to working as a food taster under the Emperor’s favourite consort. The story follows Maomao, a young woman who is trained as an apothecary but is working as a servant in the inner court of the imperial palace (a place where the emperor’s consorts and servants live) after being kidnapped from her home. However things are starting to change for the better there and an early indicator is the new series The Apothecary Diaries, a new manga from Square Enix Manga based on a popular light novel series. When it comes to manga based on light novels it’s unusual to find any that aren’t rooted in the isekai genre. ![]()
