I appreciate the character name help!

MaoMao turning down eating locusts and frogs kind of surprised me, she's the last person I expected to be a picky eater. Poisoned soup is a yes but roasted frog is a no, silly cat.
In further speculation Shi Sui chewing the lantern plant is interesting especially considering Maomao's comment about it being poison used specifically for abortion medicine. As I recall the emperor hadn't visited her (as Loulan) because she's too young but if I'm misremembering it seems like she definitely doesn't want a child with him. In that case I kind of wonder what purpose her time in the rear palace served if she just left like that, either he was confirming Jinshi's true identity or the mission was compromised my Maomao's meddling and they had to abort (pun intended) the plan.
Either way wonderful chapter, I can't wait for more.

She doesn't want to eat frogs because she's thinking about Jinshi's frog, lol.

The high consort that was too young for the current Emperor was Rishu, not Rouran. Rouran is around the same age as Maomao and thus considered a woman.

Remember in Chapter 43, Shisui tried to buy jasmine, and Maomao notes that jasmine tea is not something pregnant women should drink.

Yes! Thank you so much for the relationship chart. I really enjoy this manga but I was getting lost and I hate re-reading just for self-refresh names.

Spoiler: Comment with a LN minor spoiler

I fucking hate that kid in the novel (Shi Sui's little brother), the more screen time he gets, the more i dread that in the manga he will be the same.

Well

Chou-u saw the Frog eating grasshoppers, and there are other witnesses (Xiaolan, Granny and Gaoshun) as well, all for his love for the CatCat

Thanks for the chapter! I appreciate the relationship tree

Thank you for the translation! The family trees are very helpful in my opinion, I think it’d be a nice addition to help people understand the plot better.

Tbh, I can't wait for manga to come out anymore - I'm gonna start reading the LN.
