What does the passage reveal about life in the imperial court?
O Members of the imperial court were kind toward one
another.
Read the passage.
Long ago in the Imperial Court, the emperor fell in love
with a certain lady. She was not of a high rank, nor was
she of a low rank. The emperor lavished her with much
attention, causing other ladies of the court to say hurtful
things about her and treat her poorly. These ladies
resented her presence in the court and made her feel
very unwelcome. Their unkindness caused her to
become ill, which in turn kept her at home and away
from the court and the emperor. But the emperor's
affection for her only grew and gave him courage to
pursue his love despite what others thought.
--Adapted from The Tale of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu
O People of low rank were not allowed to be part of the
imperial court.
The emperor did not listen to the advice of members
of the imperial court.
Having the emperor's attention was important for
members of the imperial court.
