So a province with the Plains holds two Dynasty cards, and Susaiken says "Once per turn, you may refill one of your provinces face-up." Does this allow you to flip both cards in the Plains province face-up as they are both part of one province? The way it's worded, you should be able to refill both face-up, but it's always good to check.

So a province with the Plains holds two Dynasty cards, and Susaiken says "Once per turn, you may refill one of your provinces face-up." Does this allow you to flip both cards in the Plains province face-up as they are both part of one province? The way it's worded, you should be able to refill both face-up, but it's always good to check.

This would only be possible if you were refilling both slots of the Province simultaneously. Since provinces refill automatically when they're empty (see CR on Provinces), generally the instant you buy something, it refills and you can trigger Susaiken then.

If both cards in the Province were refilling simultaneously (for instance, via an effect that said to discard all cards in the province), then Susaiken could refill both face up.
