I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
Lin Beifan looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar woman before him and smiled, “Song Yufei, long time no see! She spoke of how the Great Luo Emperor, once a ruler who loved his people like his own children, transformed into a cruel and ruthless tyrant and then from a tyrant into a ruler of a fallen nation, clinging to life in fear of death…She also mentioned the Taoist Sect and how their cold-heartedness forced her to commit many acts against her conscience. ”“Imagine, if the situation in Great L...
The news of Lin Beifan and Yaoyao’s engagement spread quickly throughout the world, causing a sensation.
This meant that the two great powers behind them, the Great Xia Empire and the Demon Sect, would become even closer.
Their alliance would have a profound and significant impact on the world’s structure.
However, the biggest impact this had on Lin Beifan was that Yaoyao had disappeared without a trace.
Despite being in the imperial city, she just wouldn’t meet with Lin Beifan.
Lin Beifan found it amusing: “This enchantress is shy, how interesting!
”Just then, a figure in white entered the imperial palace and approached Lin Beifan.
Lin Beifan looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar woman before him and smiled, “Song Yufei, long time no see!
”The woman in white was none other than Song Yufei, the Taoist Child of the Taoist Sect.
They hadn’t seen each other since the last grand court ceremony.
She seemed unchanged, still dressed in flowing white clothes, like a fairy descended from the moon palace, exuding an aura that was to be admired from afar but not to be profaned.
However, her face looked somewhat haggard.
It must have been the affairs of the Great Luo Dynasty that had worn her out.
“Your Majesty, long time no see!
” she said with a cold voice, a hint of excitement in her eyes as she looked at Lin Beifan, but she forcefully suppressed it.
Because of their positions, they couldn’t afford to be too close.
“Please, have a seat!
” Lin Beifan gestured towards a pavilion nearby.
There was a stone table with four stone stools, and on the table, there were some pastries, fruits, a pot of wine, and two cups, clearly meant for entertaining guests.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!
” Song Yufei followed Lin Beifan’s lead and sat down slowly.
Lin Beifan glanced at the attendants nearby and waved his hand, “You all may leave us.
”“But, her…” Eunuch Liu and the others looked at Song Yufei with a hint of wariness.
“Don’t worry, she won’t harm me!
” Lin Beifan said.
“Yes, Your Majesty!
” The eunuchs and maids all withdrew, leaving just the two of them in the garden.
Song Yufei looked at the deserted back garden and said softly, “I didn’t expect Your Majesty to still trust me so much!
”Lin Beifan laughed, “I’ve said before, no matter our positions, you and I will always be friends!
To treat a friend, one must be sincere and trusting.
Otherwise, what’s the point of making friends?
”Song Yufei looked up, “Your Majesty, aren’t you afraid I might act on impulse and kidnap you?
”Lin Beifan’s gaze was intense, “You won’t!
”He thought to himself, and you couldn’t do it even if you wanted to!
Tears glistened in Song Yufei’s eyes, “Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty!
I came here because I’ve been suppressing too much and needed to vent.
Looking around the world, I have no other friend other than Your Majesty!
So, I had no choice but to come here.
I hope Your Majesty will forgive me for taking up your time.
”“If there’s anything you want to say, go ahead.
I’m a very good listener!
” Lin Beifan patted his chest.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!
”Next, Song Yufei recounted the affairs of the Great Luo Dynasty to Lin Beifan.
In fact, it was only after the fall of the Great Luo Dynasty, when there were no longer any concerns, that she dared to seek out Lin Beifan.
She spoke of how the Great Luo Emperor, once a ruler who loved his people like his own children, transformed into a cruel and ruthless tyrant and then from a tyrant into a ruler of a fallen nation, clinging to life in fear of death…She also mentioned the Taoist Sect and how their cold-heartedness forced her to commit many acts against her conscience.
Throughout this process, Lin Beifan did not offer his opinion.
Because he knew well that what the other party needed was not a comforter, but simply a listener.
After sharing all this, Song Yufei sighed deeply, “Your Majesty, do you think I was wrong?
”Lin Beifan shook his head, “You were not wrong.
You acted according to the principles of your heart!
Your heart is kind and righteous.
No one can find fault in that!
”“Then was the Great Luo Emperor wrong?
”Lin Beifan shook his head again, “He was not wrong either!
Given his circumstances, everything he did was understandable!
He had to become cruel and cold-blooded to save his nation!
As for his fear of death, that’s just human nature!
He is an Emperor, but he is also a human being!
”“Then was the Taoist Sect wrong?
”Lin Beifan shook his head once more, “The Taoist Sect was not wrong either!
Everything they did was in the interest of the Sect!
Only in this way could the Taoist Sect thrive and continue its legacy!
”“Then… who was wrong?
” Song Yufei was puzzled.
“No one was wrong.
Each party had their own interests to pursue, and it was the conflicts that arose from this that led to an irreparable situation!
”“Imagine, if the situation in Great Luo had not deteriorated, then the Great Luo Emperor would still be a ruler who loved his people, the Taoist Sect would still support him wholeheartedly, and you would not have acted against your conscience!
”“Everything would be wonderful, and everyone would have a bright future.
It’s just a pity that fate has played its hand!
”“Yes, it’s just fate playing its hand.
What can we do?
”Song Yufei said with a bitter smile, standing up, “Your Majesty, after talking to you, I feel much better!
Who knows when we will meet again next time!
”“Why would that be?
”Lin Beifan was puzzled, “You can come anytime you want.
I won’t stop you!
” “Indeed, Your Majesty has not stopped me, but the next time we meet, our positions will be different, and it won’t be right to see each other!
”Song Yufei thought for a moment, “Well, you would have found out sooner or later, so I might as well tell you now, our Taoist Sect has chosen a new wise ruler!
”Lin Beifan was intrigued, “Which country, which Emperor?
”“It’s Emperor Li Shidao of the Great Ren Kingdom!
”Li Shidao.
Lin Beifan was familiar with this Emperor, he’s quite capable.
He ascended the throne at the age of 20, governed with benevolence, and was very diligent.
After 10 years of development, although the country had not grown stronger, the lives of the people of Great Ren had significantly improved.
It made sense for the Taoist Sect to choose him as their protege.
The only regret for Lin Beifan was that the Great Ren Kingdom was a bit too far away.
They’re nearly three thousand li apart, which made it difficult for him to take action.
“Li Shidao is a good Emperor!
All he lacks is an opportunity!
I believe that with the assistance of the Taoist Sect, he will soar to great heights and become the master of an Empire!
I will send you a congratulatory gift in the future!
” Lin Beifan said with a smile.
Even a distance of 3000 li can’t stop our love-hate relationship!
Song Yufei looked at Lin Beifan’s handsome face, and suddenly felt an impulse, “Your Majesty, before we part, may I ask for a small favor?
”“What is it?
” Lin Beifan asked.
Song Yufei suddenly lunged forward and, to Lin Beifan’s astonishment, hugged him and kissed him.
Lin Beifan was utterly shocked!
Song Yufei!
I never expected you to be such a person!
I thought of you as a friend, but you want to sleep with me?
If it weren’t for the need to avoid the Four Divine Beasts and conceal my cultivation level, how could you have succeeded?
Sigh, my life is really too difficult!
Just then, a dark figure darted out.
Seeing this scene, she was furious: “What are you doing!?
”She forcefully separated the two, standing in front of Lin Beifan like a mother hen protecting her chick, glaring at Song Yufei and angrily said, “What are you doing?
How dare you take advantage of my man?
”The person in front of them was none other than Yaoyao, who had sneaked over upon hearing that Song Yufei had arrived.
Unable to hold back upon seeing the two embracing each other, she burst out.
This woman was strange; seeing Lin Beifan being affectionate with other women didn’t affect her much.
But seeing Lin Beifan with Song Yufei made her jealous.
Song Yufei, having her actions exposed, felt extremely embarrassed.
But upon seeing Yaoyao, she became defiant: “I just wanted to be willful one last time before leaving!
Besides, you’re neither relatives nor close friends, what right do you have to interfere?
”“Who says we’re neither relatives nor close friends?
We’re engaged, so he’s my man.
Isn’t it normal for me to care about my man’s affairs?
” Yaoyao said with her chest puffed out, speaking with righteous indignation.
“Right!
You are engaged!
”Song Yufei said with envy, “Yaoyao, sometimes I really envy you.
You can do what you want and marry the person you want to marry!
”“That’s right!
” Yaoyao gloated.
She had never won against this woman in all their years of rivalry.
But when it came to winning over a man, she had won!
Her heart felt content!
And she was proud!
Song Yufei gave Lin Beifan a lingering look and waved goodbye with a sense of reluctance, “Your Majesty, I’m leaving.
We’ll meet again another day!
”And with that, the beauty departed.
Yaoyao turned back, poking Lin Beifan’s chest with her finger, her anger rising as she demanded, “Tell me, do you still have her in your heart?
Tell me, are you blaming me for interrupting your moment?
Tell me, do you want to marry her as your consort?
Tell me…”Lin Beifan said nothing, simply embracing Yaoyao and kissing her passionately!
To deal with an unreasonable woman, one must use an even more unreasonable approach!
And if that still doesn’t work, the only option left is to conquer her in bed!
