This development, however, does continue to the motif of the users being those of royal blood. Which could mean, very much so, that Mao was/is related to the current Empress. Her ambiable tone is also interesting, as it shows some sort of bond towards the people who were enshrined there.
Going by that line of though, it would be safe to say she contracted at least one of them, hence the familiarity and possible bond.

Next point, and probably last for now, as I have lasers to be fixing, is C.C.'s reaction towards Lelouch action to save Kallen. Going by what she said in Ep.7, its an unusual series of reactions because, quite frankly, he's putting his life on the line. If she wants him alive, her reaction didn't follow that train of thought. She looked glad that Lelouch kept true to his plan to save Kallen. Now this doesn't imply anything, but the situation is an inversion of the Shirley debacle in S1. This time, Lelouch is doing it flatout for himself, where as the Shirley incident was plagued with reasons of guilt, Mao problems, and the overall secret of his identity being in the hands of someone who may exploit it. We have Lelouch chasing Kallen, not Lelouch chasing his secret and ending up at Shirley and Mao.

This may not mean much, but it seems that C.C. is glad that he's staying human. The old Zero/Lelouch would have abandoned Kallen, probably, if it meant his rebellion would win. Now he's risking everything for someone, very stupid but very human.
Concurred.

Though the best I can offer towards C.C.'s expressions of relief since Kallen rescued Lelouch, is that she's letting her guard down slightly. The slip with Kaguya certainly was no mistake though in relation to Kallen..I haven't the foggiest why.

As for Lelouch, I have to disagree. Lelouch is not above using the people he knows to his advantage but that would be better done in his own thread.
