Ohhhh Jinshi SAID IT!
I'm also happy that this isn't a straightforward romance. I particularly appreciate how Maomao recognizes the problems in such a relationship. She's very conscious of her station in society compared to Jinshi and the power imbalance that comes with it. I'm curious what will happen in the future.
Asides from that, we get to see more of the medical offices at the palace! As interesting as the rear court is, I like seeing different areas of the palace, especially one where Maomao can make use of her apothecary skills. The new characters have their own quirky behaviour. They fit pretty well with Maomao.
