Comparatively speaking, the Yan Emperor possessed a natural-born dominance, while the Qian Emperor was free-spirited and expressive. Both were manifestations of personalities 'cultivated' to perfection.
They might seem similar to some extent, both being rather easygoing. The fundamental reason was their self-confidence, which meant they didn't need to deliberately put on airs or adopt a stern demeanor to assert their status.
In other words, who would want to live wearing a facade every day? Isn't it exhausting?
However, Emperor Jin was different. He constantly put on airs because, since his ascension to the throne, he had never truly experienced the feeling of supreme sovereignty. The more insecure a person is, the more they crave to "pose" outwardly to project a certain image of themselves.
Seeing Zheng Fan enter, Emperor Jin put down the porridge bowl, slightly puzzled, and asked, "Has General Zheng had his dinner yet?"
