I continue to find Story of Kunning Palace & A Journey to Love an exquisite back to back experience (when taking into account SoKP novel's uncensored climax).
--Ch 246, Xie Wei, A Story of Kunning Palace novel:
There was even a laugh at the moment.
He said, "I once thought, Shen Lang and I are both mortal bodies. Why should I kneel down to him and sacrifice my life for him? Born to all people, everyone is a son, why only the emperor dares to call himself the son of heaven. It is clear that everyone is the Son of Heaven. But everyone is also worthless. Ten thousand species compete with each other, and there is no mercy; kill if you want to kill, destroy if you want to destroy."

"I'm the emperor of An. I did what I did. A great success has to be achieved alone. A man with great ambitions shouldn't be concerned with trivial things."
"But we're not trvial. We're living people."
-- ep 32, Ren Xin, A Journey to Love

--Ch 245, Shen Zhiyi, A Story of Kunning Palace novel:
Shen Zhiyi sneered: "Am I not guilty?!"
When she was in the palace, although she had a spoiled temperament, she was always considered docile.
This sudden rhetorical question almost made Shen Lang stunned.
His face was livid, "What do you mean?"
Shen Zhiyi looked at him with some sadness. "You killed Zhongliang, and the border was in turmoil, but the one who went to Tartar to make peace was me! You certainly have the blood of the royal family flowing through your body, and you even sit high in the position of the King. Come on, but what have you done that is worthy of your own status? Lord of the world, ruler of all peoples, are you worthy of it?"

-- Ep 28, Ning Yuanzhou, A Journey to Love
"Your majesty is really thoughtful. But unfortunately, if you could've applied this thoughtfulness to how you manage military affairs, then tens of thousands of Wu soldiers wouldn't have become wronged souls. This is the remnant of the Wu flag that Chai Ming held onto before he died for you in battle. The next time you want to go crazy or throw a tantrum, you can look at this. Search your conscience. Are you worthy?"
