They couldn’t have Jinshi dance as the moon fairy in front of everyone because he would have recognized by those who know him (the four high concubines for instance)- the envoys demanding to see the moon fairy (or a beauty like her) is pretty much like Lakan’s request to see blue roses last season- a challenge that is potentially impossible (or at least very difficult) that the one it is posed to is expected to meet (and whoever “loses” I guess loses some face or whatever- like if the challenge is met successfully, the one who posed it “loses”, at least that’s my interpretation of this)

Maomao was nervous when the envoy approached the emperor because it was definitely breaking protocol- in fact approaching the emperor directly like that without being asked to could have meant a beheading lol

I think the envoys are supposed to be from this world’s equivalent of Turkey

I think I’ve mentioned in a comment somewhere else, probably a Black Clover video- but you’ll hear Gaoshun’s VA in that show pretty soon (I really like the voice too)

It wasn't during these episodes, and I don't remember now which specific one it was, but that frog close up that you commented on was intentional- and that's all I'm going to say about it for now lol
