Here's a Question, My Kwanchai duels someone with 2 chi(or higher) with = Iaijutsu Art, can Shosruo Gardens letm e retarget who my dueler is, = reguardless of Chi? Say to a personality with a Sword? =20
When changing targets, the new targets have to be legal ones as well. This is a general rule on retargeting.
The counter-argument, just FYI, Jeff, is that the targeting restriction is not on your personality for the Art, but the other player's personality; i.e., someone with higher chi than your duelist. Does this create an implied restriction on your duelist that they must have lower chi then their opponent?
Well, yes. If target A must have lower Chi than target B, then target B must have higher Chi than target A.
And, also, I cannot move Sunetra into an empty Province and play [Show of Strength] at the battle, since moving her in would count as my first Battle action, correct? So I would have to resolve the battle she is at first, and then move her over, so she is present for the start of the battle.... eww.
Correct.

Yes. The only prohibition is against voluntarily discarding them.
