《Rebirth As a Fatuous And Self-indulgent Ruler》C37. Receiving a Tip-off
Advertisement
Three months were gone...this evening, Long Xiaoyan laid on the bed and thought that life was changeable.
He lived in another world three months ago but lived here three months later and got a wife.
Besides, he was the emperor of this world...
Tianlong Dynasty. Now, he couldn’t know how farther he would go...
“Yuan?” asked Shi Qingzhou beside him. Long Xiaoyuan subconsciously turned around. “Eh? Qingzhou, I thought you fell into sleep. Why do you still awake?”
Shi Qingzhou said with a faint smile, “It should be me asking. Why do you still awake?”
Long Xiaoyuan didn’t reply to him but approached him and violently kissed his cheek.
Shi Qingzhou felt confused. “En?”
Long Xiaoyuan said, “I just feel...everything is fine.”
Shi Qingzhou asked with his eyebrows arched, “Fine?”
“Yes, fine.” Long Xiaoyuan seriously nodded and kissed Shi’s lips.
The following days were rather peaceful, and nothing abnormal happened.
3rd March which was Shi Qingzhou’s birthday was getting closer and closer. Long Xiaoyuan had long prepared for this day. He headed for the Qiankun Palace as usual when the morning session was over.
Under the efforts of him, fewer and fewer ministers talked nonsense, and more and more ministers could give constructive advice about local matters.
He felt relieved about this.
Otherwise, he indeed wanted to beat those ministers.
“Your Majesty, Minister Shi asks to meet you.”
“En?” Hearing this, he felt surprised. “Minister Shi? The morning session was just over, wasn’t it?”
After some thoughts, Long Xiaoyuan said, “Ask him to meet me in the Imperial Study.”
“Yes!” The eunuch hurried to do so.
He flattened his mouth and sneakily stroked his stomach. He hadn’t eaten breakfast. Why did these people like to meet him before he had breakfast!

Alas...
Although he thought so, he still hurried to the Imperial Study, for he deemed that Shi Qingshan must have something urgent to report to him. When he reached there, Shi Qingshan had already waited there for him and knelt upon seeing him.
Long Xiaoyuan waved his hands. “Stand up...”
Shi Qingshan stood up and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
“What is so urgent that you have to see me when the morning session was just over?”
“Your Majesty...I just received a tip-off...” Speaking of which, Shi Qingshan took out a document from his sleeves...
Long Xiaoyuan took it before reading it. A few moments later, he asked seriously, “Is it true?”
Shi Qingshan lowered his head and said, “There is no definitive evidence. The moment I got it, I sent it to you.”
Long Xiaoyuan pursed his lips and said lightly after a while, “I leave this matter to you, and you must show me the solid evidence.”
“Yes! I obey your order!”
Thanks everyone very much; your support is really greatly appreciated. We will try our best to provide steady updating. ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
