THE SPEZIAL DIARIES 1

Maomao, a young pharmacist from the red light district of the capital, is sold in spite of herself as a scullery maid at the imperial court. Although she ardently desires to be free again, she finds herself not disdaining the all in all comfortable life that she has managed to carve out for herself in the palace, where, without getting noticed, she is able to continue her studies in phytotherapy and on the preparation of poisons. Faced with an evil that afflicts the emperor's children, Maomao nevertheless feels he is coming forward and, using his knowledge, he manages to save their lives. The girl thus attracts the attention of the handsome eunuch Jinshi, who has very specific plans in mind for her: it's time for the former herbalist to go back to preparing potions in, er, stable plant!
