《Rebirth As a Fatuous And Self-indulgent Ruler》C40. Am I A Failure?
Advertisement
Zhou Wan hesitated for an instant upon seeing his meaningful expression and asked in the end, “Master, is there a problem?”
A problem? Yes! Of course, there was!
Long Xiaoyuan came to the temple to see his marriage destiny but unexpectedly encountered the marriage partner of his wife. Wasn’t it a big problem?
However, it might take place in the future as the ending described in that novel!
So now? He didn’t believe that this was gonna happen.
He said with a smile, “It’s alright. It’s fine nothing bad happened to you. Since I have things to attend, I’ll leave.”
“Master, may I know your name? My family will appreciate you very much and express our thanks to you in person...”
“No need to do so.” He said waving his hand, “It’s just a piece of cake.”
“But...”
“No ‘but’, I’m leaving.” Immediately, he turned around and left without caring about if she had something to say...
Zhou Wan moved her mouth but swallowed the words she wanted to say...
After some thoughts when he left there, he decided to go back...
As to the Marriage Temple, he should come here with Shi Qingzhou the next time!
Long Xiaoyuan who had eaten some snacks outside went back to the imperial palace in the afternoon.
Shi Qingzhou just finished eating at the time.
Long Xiaoyuan directly headed for the Qiankun Palace.
“You’re back...” The moment Long Xiaoyuan showed up at the gate of the palace, Shi Qingzhou came to welcome him.
Long Xiaoyuan saw Shi Qingzhou and instantly held him into his arms with a smile. “Yeah, I’m back.”
Shi Qingzhou slightly closed his eyes. “I’m glad you’re back.”
Long Xiaoyuan kissed Shi Qingzhou’s ears. “Sorry...I went out without telling you.”

“Did...you go out?” Shi Qingzhou blinked.
“Yes, I did.” Long Xiaoyuan smiled.
“Oh,” said Shi Qingzhou. “Did you get out of the palace?”
“Yes...we can go out of the palace the next time together,” said Long Xiaoyuan naturally.
“Okay.” Shi Qingzhou nodded and then continued, “Does something in the palace bother you?”
“Yes.” Long Xiaoyuan sighed. “Qingzhou, you may not know...the Barbarians have ganged up with several Wangyehs of our country...”
“The Barbarians....” Shi Qingzhou’s face turned cold. “What scheme! But, why are those Wangyehs so stupid? What good consequences do they think they will get after the Barbarians attack us?”
“You’re right.” Long Xiaoyuan sneered. “What idiots they are if they believe the lip services of the Barbarians!”
“Your Majesty, are you mad at this?”
“Yes, I am...” Long Xiaoyuan sighed again. “In addition to be angry, I doubt myself, too...perhaps, I’m a so bad emperor that my relatives even want to rise in rebellion...Qingzhou...” Long Xiaoyuan stroked Shi Qingzhou’s ears and sighed. “In your eyes, am I a failure as the emperor?”

Iron and Wood - A Tale Of Empire and Clans
For centuries, the Midlands had been split into fragments. A once glorious, united Empire has become a shadow of its former self. Unity has not returned, and not for the lack of trying. The greatest of these successor states were the Li Dynasty to the south, the rulers of old, and the Emerald Empire to the North, with its vibrant vitality. Unity is the end goal, and both will sacrifice anything to attain this elusive dream. For unity would surely solve the conflict that had long plagued this once prosperous continent. The Ironwood Clan was a prime player. Some would consider them the ones holding the reigns to the horse named 'Unification'. Iron and wood were the backbones of civilization; similarly, the Ironwoods were the backbones of the Northern Empire, and by extension, the people of the Midlands. Their methods, as questionable as they might be, had strengthened the North. Yet, were they enough? In the midst of it all, a young Ironwood who had lost his path must once again find his way. For the sake of his own wellbeing; for the sake of his clan; and for the sake of the Empire and its subjects. However, is he willing to sacrifice for the good of all? Is he willing to condemn some for the sake of others? Is he willing to make the right, albeit harsh, decisions? Only the heavens would know. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Additionally, any views and beliefs expressed by the characters are not the author's own. The story is also not an endorsement of any actions taken within. The 'profanity' and 'sexual content' warning tags are there to be safe (and to leave room for potential future changes), but for now these two things are not inside this novel. This is my take on 'cultivation', though it might be somewhat disconnected from the general idea of the genre. Release schedule: Two chapters a week. The cover was created using wombo art. While I believe that creations using the app are in the public domain, if that is not the case, I will take it down.
