"Caravan" is the 26th overall episode and the 2nd episode of the second season of The Apothecary Diaries anime adaptation.

The caravan stirs up excitement in the inner palace. The merchants bring all kinds of goods. However, something gives Maomao a bad feeling.

Translated blurb from official anime website...

A large caravan arrived at the harem. The empress and her maids were excited with clothes, accessories, and other foreign items, and the harem was filled with a festival-like atmosphere. A few days later, after the festival ended, perfumed oils became very popular in the harem. Maomao smelled the scent and felt a strange sense of discomfort, so she headed to the Crystal Pavilion.
