Summary
Jinshi's latest undercover Op is about to go horribly wrong and change the course of his, Maomao's and possibly Li's future.
Maybe now Jinshi can get in on Maomao’s frequent kidnapping card and get to the bottom of… more things than he bargained for. Healing, heartache, and an unraveling of the muttled panoply of misunderstandings in palace and kingdom alike.
Intermittent 🌶️🌶️🌶️ chapters MOSTLY Mature rating, E kicks in at Ch 62, but this one is WAY more plot and character driven than straight spice. AND I mark it off so you can skip those parts if you like.

Summary
Maomao is bought out of her contract at the Verdigris House. Her true parentage had resurfaced, and the emperor needed a bargaining chip over Lakan. So she was sent to the rear palace. Not as a servant, not even as the emperor's consort, but as the Moon Prince's sole concubine. A mysterious figure nobody's even seen. How boring. She slowly learns to navigate her life at the palace. Maomao even makes a few friends. But mysteries soon begin to appear, and the sparkly palace eunuch somehow decides he needs her help every time something crops up.
This work contains spoilers for the Apothecary Diaries anime, but I've not read the light novels, so don't worry about that. And also Ah-Duo stays, because I want to write her in. And I don't like Loulan. I like Shisui though.

Summary
Jinshi would never pretend that he knew how the heavens and the earth moved to get him here, in this exact moment, but he did know of a certain game of go which lead him to, eventually, stand on the steps of the most prominent brothel in the capital’s red light district. For business, of course.

Summary
Jinshi paid for the whole night, but the reason why is far more innocent than Maomao expects. Jinshi's reason might be innocent, but as soon as he meets the brilliant and beautiful woman he quickly starts to fall head over heels. He might be able to convince her to assist with his investigation, but can he convince her to trust him with her heart?
A fic that draws on elements of canon, but is not actually canon. An AU where Maomao is a courtesan at Verdigris House. The palace is plagued with mysterious deaths, and Jinshi suspects poison. He's told of a courtesan that has knowledge of medicine and poison, and seeks her out with the intention of requesting her assistance with the investigation.

Summary
"She's a whore!"
He'd never appeared so loathsome before the emperor in all his years. "She's to be my wife-give her due respect. This is not up for debate or discussion, you said so yourself."
"Due respect?" A heavy, disappointed sigh filled the room—Zui always did have a talent for making the emperor pinch the bridge of his noes. "If you truly think that lowly woman is fit to be wed into the imperial family then I, too, must call into question your sanity. Simply because she wet your virgin prick does not mean you must surrender yourself and our country to her for all eternity."
"If loving her, devoting myself to her, cherishing her above all else is insanity then let them call me a mad—you call me mad—I will be the maddest of them all."
"So make her a consort, sure, and visit her each night—but a wife?"
"I'd make her empress if that's what she desired."
or
I wanted to try writing Jinmao smut and it ended up becoming my main fic taking on themes of challenging fate, the ubiquitous position of inferiority, and men always thinking they know best: told in dual perspective

They call her a cat immortal, a divine healer, a woman who solves any puzzle—if she deems you worth the effort.

He doesn’t expect the girl beneath the rumors and icy shell.
He certainly doesn’t expect to keep coming back.And Maomao doesn’t expect to feel anything at all.

Summary
🔆 Moon Prince Jinshi is told he soon needs to find a prospect for marriage, a topic he would rather avoid forever. Amongst the festivity his brother had thrown for him to help him get closer to ladies, he decides that he has no interest. But an encounter amidst the imperial garden with a mysterious lady courtesan leads him to believe that maybe fate is trying to play with his feelings.
"The most interesting part was that he couldn’t stop looking… due to her attire, she had to be a courtesan, but by the way she hugged some of the poppies and herbs from the garden, she didn’t seem like one… Still, that beautiful jade hair tied with some red ribbons, and her childish smile making her eyes reflect the lights like stars were enough to keep him in place admiring her for a bit longer… "

A poison called Jinshi with a ton of side effects that she doesn't like. And there is no medicine for him. It only gets worse when Jinshi is called away on a mission that Maomao can't follow him to. The attention she keeps getting makes her skin crawl.

Summary
Maomao had very odd ideas about places to go on dates. Jinshi always wanted to see Maomao's home, have a home date with her, but it just so happened that her home was the Verdigris House. Surprisingly they have more privacy there then back at the Palace. It's also a perfect place to lose your virginity at.
