Well, even in the caravan the merchants were depicted as quite brown with even arab facial features like the noses on some of the female merchants, however the royalty/envoy are white with very european features.

Random fact that this episode made me look up. The real life Forbidden Palace/City was built in just 14 years. So even though this totally "isn't China", that part is surprisingly plausible.

Mmm, yes, an upload right before work, must watch in the shower ππΏ
Hmmm, pretty sure Lindsey is right about the sewer smell. Maomao DID speculate it was the sewers being backed up because Shisui said it smelled weird in the North, where she does her bug catching. It was most definitely Concubine Jin's body that was smelling and causing the mushrooms to grow. Also, that weird red poison mushroom from the previous episode is real! I had to look it up. It's called the Trichoderma cornu-damae or fire poison coral. Very interesting, look it up if you're a nerd like me. :D

eating so good with the amount of Apothecary Diaries reactions rn, also iβm really glad Lindsay is reading the light novel(s), the anime is a very faithful adaptation but they canβt cram ALL of the narration/inner thoughts in there
