What is The Apothecary Diaries all about?

The Apothecary Diaries Season 1 follows Maomao, the daughter of an apothecary who lives a humble life until she is forced into labor at an imperial palace.

Unlike the other servants, Maomao possessed extensive knowledge of medicine due to her apothecary background. This caught the eye of the head eunuch Jinshi, who appointed her as the lady-in-waiting as a poisoned food tester for one of the Emperorโ€™s consort.

Being the servant of the consort, Maomao gets insights into the happenings in the rear palace. She alongside Jinshi takes it upon themselves to solve the medical mysteries that take place.
