Yeah, with everything we heard for now, seem like Shenmei isn't the most lovable person in the building (literaly). She might even be the one that order Lolan and Suirei more than Shiso, the bref instant we see her, give her some bright and powerul woman vibe right of the bat. And if you take account that she was a concubine of the late emperor, given to Shiso after "grandma Suirei" gave birth to the baby, she might have big ressentment for the current emperor, Anshi and all the royal families. Having Lolan being the mother of the new prince could be a way to get in the palace again (and surprisingly, pretty close to what other empress did already), but now... That doesn't smell good at all.

2025-05-27 14:31:12 +0000 UTCIt was at the end of the episode where Maomao got kidnapped. When they talk about East and West, they are talking about the palace: Bureaucrats in the East, Military in the West. Lakan is the fox, Shishou is the tanuki. Shishou's lands are in the North, though. ..... The way this gene works, a woman needs two copies to express the gene, a man needs only one. So Shisui's mother must at least have one copy. A man can only get it from his mother, though. ...... Yeah, I, too, wondered why they let her keep the hair stick. ...... About Shisui. There were periods in time where female friends walked arm-in-arm, and I even think there were male friends who did that. I recently listened to a podcast about platonic life-partners. They weren't official (but there could be legal connections) and were often also married to other people. Basically saying it's okay to value friendships that highly. Maybe she is gay. But it's not the only way or only reason Shisui could be behaving that way. ....... I think what got me about Season 1, and everybody else, is that we were introduced to how everything comes together in this show, and how all our assumptions are turned on their head. Now we expect that sort of thing. This Season hasn't finished, so we haven't seen all of the revelations for it yet, but we know it's coming. ....... I don't think the sequence of events regarding the migration of the people from the west has to be that they came there from the capital or vice versa. We just know they had the same origins.
