You guys go too deep with your guesses. The nails being painted was done just to get the annoying ladies in waiting go away

Empress Dowagers ( i.e Mothers of the Emperor) could have a lot of power politically actually, especially if the emperor was put on the throne at a young age or was not a smart or savvy they could basically be puppet rulers, it’s happened quite a few times in different Chinese dynasties so I wouldn’t say necessarily that she would’ve had any untoward going on with Shishou, he really could’ve been a political ally and thus like a ‘favoured’ offical and I think that’s what they mean in this context

also to clear up some confusion, Maomao said that Loulan’s face looks northern but she was dressing in the southern style (and a lot of other styles)

funny you’d talk about Maomao sounding different when talking to Xiaolan cause apparently she’s also the only person in the palace Maomao doesn’t use formal speech with (cause she’s pretty much the only one who doesn’t outrank her)
