Jaja, I definitely backup u!!! Poor Ryuuki. Yuushun is scaring. I really wanted to trust him, I thought he was on Ryuukis side up until the last volume. But now… I certainly dont know what to think, specially after that conversation he held with Kouki, plus we cant deny that Kouki and Anju are supporting Ou ki, can we?
And finally with that smile of his at the end of the meeting, as I said poor Ryuuki.
Well, he is hopless, I hope for Shureis return.

thanks for this!

I feel bad for asking this but is it just me or is Yuushun really confusing? I’m not sure if I’m not paying attention or it really is just confusing.. I still can’t tell if he’s against Ryuuki or if he supports him. I’m leaning on the former but it’s not really clear for me…And what is his goals really? Gah so confusing..

I’ve been also thinking. Ryuuki probably has the worst reign in Saiunkoku. I mean, in the beginning, not much problems arrived, but when Shuurei became an official, things started to get disturbing. like the officials said. First the worm infestation of Sa province, then the plague. It’s like seeing the ten plagues of Moses. Which God did Ryuuki angered anyway? I’m now waiting for the death of the first born sons. The conspiracy and crimes, I can take, a reign is never without them, but two natural disasters in what, 1 or 2 years? That spells unlucky to me.

His decision… I’m not sure if it’s really a wise move. Ou ki once controlled the locusts, so it’s good that Ryuuki allow him to handle it again… but having control of the army scares me. I just hope Ryuuki would be alright. yet another stale mate for Ryuuki.

針のむしろ: There’s a Chinese idiom 如坐针毡，meaning roughly unease/ anxiety.

And if you wanna use pinyin, it’s gui, not guei. Guifei is a title, the second highest rank of all ranks of consorts IIRC.

Maybe. XD Also, given Shuuei’s reaction to Shuurei and her questions, I’m wondering if there might be a thing between them later on? Or maybe I’m just being a fangirl?

LOL, Ryuuki is setting himself up for his own downfall. Giving the enemy full power of the army? Oh man. It’s yet another one of those moments of, it’s one of the better solutions, but also one of the crappier solutions moment, isn’t it?

Ki Kouki’s stock just keeps on rising doesn’t it?

I guess Shuuei now has to see that Shuurei is in fact much more useful as an official than any of those lunkheads foresaw. Good job guys. I wonder if Shuuei is kicking himself now? XD

Thank you as always! :D I wonder if this is some foreshadowing of how the rest of Ryuuki’s rule might end up.
