3. What is the name of the emperor who did nothing but flaunt his love for men?

Answer: Shi Ryuki

Shi Ryuki is the present emperor when the story begins. He is the sixth son of the Emperor Senka. When he was young, his elder brothers (except Seien) likes to bully him and often takes refuge in the garden or at the archives. His own mother hates him because of his position.

He is the youngest of the sons of the emperor. He is really a straight man, he spread the rumors about him being a homosexual in order to not bear an heir to avoid another civil war.
4. What are the eight clans named after colors?

Answer: Shi, Ran, Kou, Ko, Sa, Heki, Koku, Haku

The eight ruling families of Saiunkoku are named after different colors. The Shi clan is the family of the emperor. Ran is the most powerful clan, just below the Shi clan. The Kou clan is in equal power with the Ran clan. They actually went into rage when Kou Reishin, the head of the Kou clan was put into house arrest.
5. Who's the eccentric genius who happens to be the youngest son of the Ran family?

Answer: Ryuuren Ran

He is the youngest of the five brothers of the Ran clan. He is always seen with his flute with him. He is a very eccentric and weird person that's why people usually distance themselves from him. He does things on his own time and is quite impulsive.
6. Who is the girl from a noble clan who is supposed to be Ryuuki's wife if Shuurei continues to be disinterested with Ryuuki's proposal?

Answer: Ran Jyuusan

She is the half-sister of Shuuei, Ryuuren, and the Ran triplets. She was sent to the palace to become Ryuuki's consort by the triplets. After Shusui's departure, Jyuusan-hime replaced her position as head lady-in-waiting and later on challenged Shuurei in a contest of making steamed buns.

She has all the skills of both being a princess and a fighter, being raised by the Shiba family, a famous retainer clan of the Ran clan who specialized in combat. By looks, she resembles Shūrei so much that Shūrei was once given the task to impersonate her.

She is the most likely candidate to be Ryuuki's concubine, should Shuurei continue to show disinterest in the time period that was given.
7. Who is the Assistant Secretary of Civil Affairs under the State Affairs Department of the Imperial Chamber who has no sense of direction?

Answer: Ri Kouyuu

He is the Assistant Secretary of Civil Affairs which is one of the ministries under the State Affairs Department of the Imperial Chamber. Kōyuu also holds the title of the youngest person who passed the national examination as Bougen (ranked 1) at the age of 16. Even though he is such an intelligent person, he does not have a sense of direction thus he always gets lost.
8. Who is the man who told Kouyuu that he must marry Shuurei and be her foot stool for her to reach the top?

Answer: Kurou Kou

Kurou is the youngest of the three brothers in the Kou clan. Reishin, his elder brother adopted Ri Kouyuu and he tried convincing Kouyuu to marry Shuurei so that he may help Shuurei. Kouyuu kept on thinking about the proposal and finds it very hard to decide especially when Shuurei is around him. He's head is like spinning whenever she's around and remembers Kurou's proposal.
9. She is the main lady-in-waiting of Shuurei. Who is she?

Answer: Shusui

She is the head lady-in-waiting of the Imperial Harem. Ryuuki said that her beauty is comparable to the famous courtesan of the Red Light District. She was also a former member of the Wolves of the Wind, an organization headed by Shuurei's father, Shouka.
10. Who is the man who always wears a mask all the time?

Answer: Kijin Ko

In charge of the Department of Treasury and Taxation (Finances). Wears a mask all the time and always has his hair loose. He has many different kinds of masks, most or all of which are given to him by Reishin. Many thought of him as a weirdo that's why he changed his name to Kijin.

His real name is Hoju. Besides, people thought that the reason he wears a mask is because he is ugly when in fact he is so beautiful that many people (including men) immediately falls in love with him.
