For the greater good, one must abandon emotions and righteousness; this is a necessary lesson for any king or emperor.
The heart of an emperor should not be black and white, nor should it be warm.
The heart of an emperor needs to be ruthless, and the blood of an emperor must be cold!
An emperor should not be entangled by emotions. The Art of the Emperor is the art of balance, weighing pros and cons, not the measure of righteousness, nor making decisions based on sentiments.
Being the emperor of a great nation is not an easy task; otherwise, why would past emperors always refer to themselves as isolated?
Those at the pinnacle of power are destined to be lonely. This position is not as comfortable as others might imagine, nor as carefree as King Liang imagines, thinking he can do as he pleases once he ascends.
