Jinshi sees Maomao making perfume with the doctor and is inquisitive as usual. Her package of books also arrived and unfortunately Jinshi and Gaoshun snooped around to see some stuff. This ultimately resulted in novels being the new craze in the palace due to more books in circulation. Maomao is now teaching Xiaolan how to read and write. Jinshi wants the palace literacy rates up.

Maomao notices a new trend going on that could potentially be dangerous to Gyokuyou's pregnancy. She speculates letting Jinshi and others hear about her thoughts but ultimately it is just speculation. In her down time she is having tea and relaxing but Jinshi shows up doing his thing and takes a stealing sip of her tea annoying her lol

Sussy wussy nightmare about Jinshi and his past. If Volume 2 was about establishing Maomao’s past I feel like this one is going to focus on Jinshi.
