i knew she looked way too young... what i don't get is why the creators put this line in.. even if this is historically inspired, they clearly state at the beginning of each episode that the story isn't depicting real events. so even if it wasn't rare for such young girls to be concubines or lovers to people in power, it is totally unnecessary to make her be only 9 when starting.

unless there's some secret plot like she's actually an illegitimate daughter of the previous emeror or some other important person and they just disguised her as a concubine to protect her or the emperor from the shame and never actually tauched her. in fiction that is supposed to be cute and romantic and all i don't see why they would feel the need to make her a literal child otherwise.

猫猫's tomboyish voice makes it sound like she's bored by being overpowered.

Anyway, her voice is similar to that one in Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear. It's another anime where the mc is overpowered. After doing some good deed, she gains some loyal followers, mostly lolis, and they become part of her 'harem' so to speak.

I now realise that this is similar to what's happening here. Whilst the OTP is Maōmaō and jinshi, she is slowly earning the trust of the emperor's concubines, and thereby making them part of her 'harem.' The latest would be that 15 yo concubine.

Reply to CaptainKenshiro
I didn't understand who is the younger girl's mother in law, the other concubine? And I'd like to know what the hairpins are or what do they mean or what they are for.
@CaptainKenshiro The hairpins are like "Hallpasses" or "Get out of Jail Free" cards. You can give them back to the person that gave it to you to request some favor from them. Obviously the higher ranked people in the court will not willy nilly give one of their hairpins to anyone. So for Maomao to get 4 pins and 2 of them from very high ranking people is unheard of and shows that she is currying favor with the people of the court expectantly.

Im surprised they dare to badmouth Maomao after she saved their concubine. And after she smacked them around lol
I guess they are jealous of her.

of course they had a minor concubine. And they managed to make it even more gross.
And the jealous lady in waiting nearly killed her, well thats the opposite side of the server spectrum I guess..

It only now hits me but I guess some women are just serving there willingly as a way to earn money?

The chinese military officers must have eyes likes eagles to spot her face from that far away.

Beautiful looking party.

Maomao saved the day. And we could see the scene from the trailer, haha.

It looks like there's an intrigue going on in the palace. Next episodes should unveil more details about it.

Why does MaoMao always imagine Jinshi in gay situations 😂

This episode flew by. I'm really wondering what's going on with the wood tablets now. Also I found it funny how all the ladies in waiting from different concubines were talking shit to each other

with the way maomao reacted, you'd think it was aphrodisiac that she ate. well, in her case, it might as well have been aphrodisiac since she got so excited when she tasted poison lol

H o l y s h i t, a 9 year old concubine????? I mean, not historically inaccurate, i'm just glad they simply stated the fact and didn't detail it much.

Decent episode. Why does Jinshi consult Maomao on everything that happens? Surely there are thousands of people better equipped to deal with this situation than Maomao? This really is a power fantasy like Solo Leveling but for women 🤣

The moment she had that elated look on her face, I knew the food was poisoned.
