Comments
The girls in the background all episode admire how fantastic of a person MaoMao is, but they are too guilty and afraid of her still being angry with them for being so mean and stupid that they won't approach her. They admire her so much that the first two, despite being scared off, went to get their friends to see how cool MaoMao was. They even think so highly of her as to think that something she did was worthy of being "in fashion", high praise.

I always thought it was more along the lines of using Jinshi's, for lack of better word, "infamy" among the officers as he is viewed as the favoured one so it doubles down on the whole "stealing the attention" premise. But tbh wouldn't be out of character for Lakan to be petty towards Jinshi 😂

2024-06-12 04:01:10 +0000 UTCI do also believe he wanted to put Jinshi in an uncomfortable position! Lakan could have told everyone that there would be blue roses at the garden party, and if Jinshi failed to provide them (remember, it's his job to organize these things), he would look like a fool

2024-06-10 12:57:10 +0000 UTCSo from what I've gathered as to why Lakan asked for the Blue Roses: 🌸 from a politically strategic pov, it was to take away attention from the presentation of the new concubine, Loulan, and therefore subtly diminish the father's influence & presence which are implied to be a possible threat to the current reign 🌸 to get Maomao's attention essentially, he probably figured Jinshi would ask for her help and she wouldn't shy away from the challenge. In retaliation, Maomao used the nosy lady-in-waitings to start a "red nail" trend and as a result trigger Lakan and get a reaction from him 🌸 third, and more personal ig, was nostalgia maybe (which is addressed in the next ep) Lakan truly adept at manipulating others to do the work for him so he gets the results he wants without lifting a finger 🧐 ❗mild spoilers ahead❗ Absolutely in awe of how intentional that scene of Loulan and her ladies in waiting during the presentation is and what it's hinting 👀 #iykyk

2024-06-10 12:28:35 +0000 UTCI still don't get why Lakan asked for the blue roses lol, if someone else gets it, please explain. was it just to prank Jinshi with an "impossible" task?

2024-06-10 12:01:06 +0000 UTC2:27 You'll notice Lakan started with the monocle on his right eye removed it to be cleaned and placed it on his left eye. I can' remember if he's been doing this before. 15:35 Lakan is a brilliant strategist who never loses a battle so he has lots clout in the palace even the Emperor is hesitant to cross him.
