Okay I might have forgotten some of the lore from beginning but is there really any reason for this farce to continue? I think king has made it pretty clearly who they will choose as next queen. Why prolong this process just so that more of consorts can embarrass themselves by doing petty things.

Can't answer three but for one the mark had to be on the second person, not the person whose memories are preserved. as for two maybe she had secret fan that wasn't at execution or time was turned back after execution but she can't remember past chop chop since she is ... well ... dead
so when demon lord said she shouldnt be proud of needing help going to toilet at night she hit him hard enough to cause him to see delusions of his dead wife
