After the Shi Clan's rebellion, Maomao returns to her work as a pharmacist in the pleasure district. An unusual breakfast at the Verdigris House catches her attention, and her curiosity draws her into another investigation. Elsewhere, Jinshi faces the responsibilities that come with his identity as the Imperial brother while weighing Loulan's warning of a disaster threatening the nation. Rumors about a deceptive shrine maiden add to the unease. As the story moves between the court, the city and places beyond Li, Maomao's eye for small irregularities remains central to a mystery shaped by personal obligations and political tension.
