Well, being an emperor, I doubt that. He might be one of those 'of the people' kind of rulers, where he goes out without being seen and gets a sense of how the people behave and talk when they don't know the guy in charge is standing right next to them, so he can figure out if he's doing a good job or not.<br/><br/>King Midas, on the other hand...I can't see him being anything but a bad guy. They showed him being somewhat good/neutral in Once Upon a Time, but really, the very nature of his power is the epitome of greed and selfishness.
