-->'''Lianne''': Rest assured councillor, simple paleness will not discourage me. And should Shen and I choose to wed, you will see for yourself how strong ''Shen's'' children will be, with or without my genetic input.
-->'''Councillor Wong''': That is... marvellous to hear. I am sure you will make an excellent mother.
-->'''Lianne''': Indeed. I remember my uncle telling me of [[MamaBear how fierce and protective my grandmother was when she became a mother]]. During a festival, she brought her young children to the city when they were just chicks, and in the hustle and bustle of the crowd, a ''sheep'' stood on my father's foot. It was an accident of course, and my grandmother would have been more than understanding... had she not [[DisproportionateRetribution had the sheep flogged and beaten in the main square in front of the entire city for even daring to bring any harm towards her child]].
-->''*Wong has [[OhCrap paled]] and the whole room is silent.*''
-->'''Lianne''': So you can imagine Councillor how I would be most... ''displeased'' to hear of any talk against the health of my children. But I'm sure you meant no harm, I am not new to these types of rumours, what with my mother being a black swan and therefore considered to be quite ''abnormal''.
-->''*Everyone in the room gasps and Wong has a JawDrop.*''
-->'''Councillor Wong''': Y-y-your Ladyship! I-I didn't m-mean to —
-->'''Lianne''': In future Mr Wong you will refrain from speaking of such comments in front of me, and you will also show more respect when speaking of your future leader and my potential betrothed.
-->'''Councillor Wong''': Y-y-yes My Lady, I-I —
-->'''Lianne''': That is good. We wouldn't want Shen finding this out, he might remember this when he comes into power. I am sure he will forget, but I would hate to be ''reminded'' of this in the future. I would not tell him intentionally of course... but I've heard that pillow talk can be quite an ''enlightening'' experience.

* During Shen and Po's duel in the fireworks factory, Lianne accidentally ends up being trapped by a metal grate in the [[ConveyorBeltODoom conveyor belt]] leading to the smelter. After she's freed with Shen's assistance, she uses the last three seconds left to run with the belt and use the smelter's smokes to gain purchase in order to fly.

* When Shen is about to set sail for his conquest, Jade attacks him in order to give him a ReasonYouSuckSpeech over his willingness to drag down everyone with him, including Zhan and his family. Even though she's been driven away by Zhan, is in crippling emotional turmoil and is no close to Shen's fighting skills, she risks her life just to give Shen a piece of her mind. What's more, her words cause Shen to let her go after defeating her [[spoiler:and send Zhan with his wolves away [[SparedByTheAdaptation before they can die in the final confrontation]]]].
* Shen is [[spoiler:crushed beneath one of his cannons like in the movie, but he survives with wounds that cripple him for life. Despite this, [[{{Determinator}} he]] spends the following weeks searching for Lianne [[ThePowerOfLove to see her one more time]]]].
