Y/n tok the way of the Apothecary after her family got kicked out from the clans working by her uncle and brother. She lives with maomao and her great grand uncle until one day she and Maomao gets kidnapped and sold to work in the rear palace. Y/n finds it to be not as bad as she thought being back there again, but she meets on someone she was about to forget from her pass.

Yukihime grew up deep in the Red-Light District, side by side with Maomao-her sister not by blood, but by bond. Together they studied medicine, survived alley brawls, and found kinship among the courtesans of the Verdigris House. But when Maomao is kidnapped and taken into the depths of the Imperial Rear Palace, Yukihime makes a decision no one expects. Even if it means disguising herself as a man. Even if it means entering a world built for eunuchs and emperors. Even if it means catching the eye of a certain enigmatic, sharp-eyed eunch named Jinshi... Between delicate poisons, political games, and stolen glances, Yukihime must tread carefully. Because the Rear Palace is a place where beauty kills, silence saves, and love-if it dares to bloom-could cost everything.
