The Apothecary Diaries episode 10 starts off with the introduction of Lady Ah-Dou, one of the four high-ranking emperor consorts. The episode goes on to reveal how Lady Ah-Dou had lost her son soon after his birth. The episode then cuts to Maomao helping Lady Gyokuyou's maids to prepare the Jade Pavillion for a tea party that Lady Lishuu will attend.

During the tea party, Maomao observes Lady Lishuu's maids and notices they are not paying any attention to their mistress. While observing, Maomao comes to the conclusion that Lady Lishuu's maids were indeed bullying her, much like Maomao had previously doubted.

After the tea party, Jinshi asks Maomao to head to the Garnet Palace the next day to help them. Maomao then goes to Lady Ah-Dou's Garnet Palace the next day and meets Lady Ah-Dou herself, and Fengmin, Lady Ah-Dou's head maid.

During her stay at the Garnet Palace, Maomao tries to deduce the reasoning and intentions behind Lady Lishuu's poisoning during the Garden Party. Later, Maomao reports back to Jinshi and then goes to meet with Lady Lishuu herself.
