    Summary

    In a world filled with mythical beings and magic, Maomao is finding her place. She was born into the La clan, one of the few remaining families that come from a long line of magic-users. As a sorceress with a penchant for healing magic, she struggles with the fact that all living creatures have an expiration date.

    As her power grows—defying the natural order—she begins to draw the attention of others who are intrigued by what she can do. After she accepts a role as an Imperial mage, working directly under the Crown Prince, she finds herself having to navigate through webs of politics and treasonous plotting.

    She never expected her greatest ally would be the elven prince, and he never expected someone could be so irresistibly fascinating to him. As their love blossoms, a dark evil looms. Maomao was warned there would be tribulations but nothing could have prepared her for the truth.

    Is she destined for greatness or will she bring ruination upon the realms?

    Rated explicit for violence and sexual content. Appendix included at the end.

    Summary

    Maomao considers herself a plain, lowly woman who shouldn’t interfere in others’ affairs. But her keen sense of justice won’t let her stay silent— especially, she finds, when Jinshi is involved.

    When he’s poisoned and falls into a coma, Maomao risks everything to find a cure. But saving him is just the beginning.

    As secrets unravel and danger creeps closer, the two are drawn into a web of intrigue that could shake the Capital— and bring them closer than ever before.

    Summary

    Years prior, the Emperor of Li and the Grand Commandant came to an arrangement. By promising the La Princess to the Moon Prince, they hoped that they could protect their children and secure their futures.

    Maomao is against this from the start, understanding that if she became the Moon Prince’s consort, a man whose real name and face is a mystery to her, then her life would go from mixing herbs to dodging assassination attempts. Meanwhile, Jinshi does his best to avoid her… even going as far as to hide his true identity as her betrothed; believing that she will be no different from countless others who sought only to use him. But after she arrives at the rear palace, he becomes fascinated with the indifferent, freckled girl, who may be the only one able to see past the masks he wears.

    AU where Jinshi is forced to take Maomao as his consort—and future bride—against their will. To survive, the two begin to low-key rebel against a court of vipers in silk robes that’s trying to crown them and crush them in equal measure. Because here, royalty feels more like a prison.

    Summary

    In a different world, Crown Prince Ka Zuigetsu might have been known as the Imperial Younger Brother, disguising himself as the eunuch Jinshi to avoid the brutal fight for the throne and to give his nephew Ziheng more siblings. But here, he wears the same disguise to protect his half-siblings and ensure their safe passage into adulthood.
    In a different world, Kan Maomao would have been the adopted daughter of the disgraced former physician Luomen, shunning her noble lineage to live out her days as a lowly apothecary in a pleasure district. But here she was, Young Lady Kan Lanmao, the beloved daughter of Kan Lakan, disciple to Master Physician Kan, and Wood sorrel of the Verdigris house.
    When a new position in the court brings the two together, Maomao resists the urge to bodily harm the irritatingly flirtatious eunuch manager of the Rear Palace while also avoiding her father and the emperor's hawklike gazes. How long can Maomao and Jinshi resist each other while evading their fathers? How long can Jinshi hide his double identity from the one person who can right through to his soul?

    Until they return, she is left to hold off the mob as they descend.

     

    Or: Who is to say that Jinshi is the only eligible marriage candidate who has to avoid unwanted proposals?

    Summary

    ​"Why are you already like this?" he demanded, his hand wrapping firmly around her throat. "Are you wet for someone else, Maomao? For the fool who sent you that gift?"

    ​Maomao gasped against his palm, looking directly into his maddened violet eyes. "Only... for you," she whispered hoarsely. "Only you..."

    ​Or: Maomao’s professional curiosity gets the better of her when a gift laced with a potent aphrodisiac arrives at the medical pavilion. Her internal calculations about her own immunity prove severely flawed, leaving Jinshi to deal with the consequences—and a terrifying spike of royal jealousy.

    Summary

    The Queen of Swords: intellect, truth, independence. Sharp-witted, clear-thinking, objectively honest and logical. La Maomao, newly crowned princess of the royal court.

    The King of Cups: compassion, balance, grace. Emotionally intact, experienced wisdom, harmonious and understanding. Ka Zuigetsu, the emperor’s only living son.

    With unrest among the kingdom and the defecting Shi Clan, a marriage is arranged between the La Clan’s daughter Maomao and the crown prince, who is often referred to as Jinshi in the Inner Palace. Ripped away from her peaceful life in the countryside with her Great Uncle, Maomao quickly discovers the life of a royal is more than she bargained for: scandals, murder, and betrayal haunt the Inner Palace halls, and leaves her entangled in a series of incidents that threaten her very life.

    Summary

    Maomao is given as a concubine to the Moon Prince in an attempt to control Lakan. Jinshi is against the idea of trapping a young woman in the rear palace for her father’s poor attitude and tries his best to accommodate her as both the palace manager and as the Moon Prince. But as time drags on, he falls in love with his odd concubine and his double life poses many issues.

    Maomao never expected to be part of palace life and finds it rather difficult to adapt to. That being said, she loves the new access to overflowing ingredients the palace offers, especially the extremely rare ones the Moon Prince has taken to giving her as presents. If only the meddlesome eunuch would leave her alone, he’s making things far too complicated for her liking.

    (Mostly follows canon, but with Maomao as the Imperial Brother’s concubine)

    Summary

    Jinshi couldn't bear the frustration any longer. Once again, he saw Maomao slipping from his fingers before he could tell her what he wanted her to know. On the other side, it was getting harder and harder for the apothecary to keep swallowing that pill. How will their relationship play out after their return to the Royal Capital?

    This story takes place after the events of LN5 (spoilers up to LN13, for now - but it's nothing that gives away that much of the canon).
