Xiaolan appears to be finishing up her duties in the emperor’s palace in The Apothecary Diaries Season 2 episode 37, but she will be spending some time with Maomao first. This episode will mark the beginning of the Season 2’s second cour, and Final Weapon has everything need to know about the new episode of The Apothecary Diaries before the premiere.
The Apothecary Diaries episode 36 had an intimate scene between Jinshi and Maomao, with Jinshi preparing to tell her the truth he’s been hiding for so long. During the scene, Maomao was accidentally pressing her hand against his crotch, discovering that Jinshi is not a eunuch after all. She got an inkling of what he was going to admit, but Maomao decided to act evasive in order to avoid being more involved in his personal life.
In truth, Jinshi is the “Moon Prince” and the inheritor to the throne as the emperor’s younger brother. Gaoshun is aware of Jinshi’s true identity, as he also hides his own as a member of the Ma family. The episode resolves the situation at Shishou’s territory, as the culprits of the Jinshi’s assassination scheme are arrested quickly with the help of Basen and the others. Moreover, Jinshi and Maomao have another heartful moment when Jinshi gives her the ox bezoars that she was so wanting.
