The Prince Jin and Wei Yuan sat opposite each other, silent for a long time.
Eventually, the Prince Jin spoke first, with a bitter smile: "Back then, I fought my way through thorns and thistles, defeating many siblings along the way, to finally ascend to the throne. All this time I've been fighting against heaven, against earth, against fate. How has it suddenly come to this?"
Wei Yuan asked, "What do you think is the reason, Great King?"
The Prince Jin sighed: "Man, one must follow a path to the end, never wavering. If you want to be a good person, you must be good to the end, and if you choose to be bad, be so hated by the heavens and people alike. You must never switch back and forth between being a bad person and then wanting to be a good one. Otherwise, you will end up like me now, achieving nothing, idling away waiting for death."
