The Apothecary's Diaries
Under a gentle winter chill, you were there, a brand-new concubine, the Concubine of the Red Lily. Why? You were worse than venom, worse than anyone else. You never hesitated to sting where it hurt. Your trust was honorable but hypocritical.
Barely had you entered your Pavilion when you were greeted by the other concubines. First, Lady Gyokuyou, the gentlest. Lady Lihua, the wisest. Lady Lolan, a bit like you, and Lady Lishu, not only the youngest but also the most naive of them all. There was also Jinshi, accompanied by Mao Mao, to avoid any disaster. This young girl looked at you suspiciously. She silently judged you without a trace.
