After Becoming the Cannon-Fodder Princess's Consort, I Ran Off with a Baby

Overworked office drone Bai Xiao was recently obsessed with a political intrigue novel. He worked during the day and stayed up late reading at night. At last, just as he reached the ending, he stayed up so late that he died.

The good news: He transmigrated into the book. The bad news: He's a cannon-fodder prince consort.

The cannon-fodder prince consort happens to share his name. He's a prince from a grassland tribe who married a princess and came to the Central Plains as a hostage in a political marriage.

Princess Feng Yun'an was born to a consort abandoned by the late emperor. She lived in the Cold Palace for years and was only made a princess so she could be married off for the alliance.

The princess has fair skin and stunning looks, eyes bright as stars, and is so tall she towers over Bai Xiao by more than half a head.

But Bai Xiao, who has read the original story, only wants to run away from the marriage. He doesn't want this kind of good fortune.

Marry the princess? No, that's a death sentence.

Feng Yun'an is the male lead of the book. To stay alive, he endured humiliation and spent years disguised as a woman in the Cold Palace.

He couldn't show his face in public, walk with his back straight, or say too much. It left him somewhat gloomy, and he would stop at nothing to reclaim everything that belonged to him.

In the original plot, Bai Xiao insults Feng Yun'an because he has a brain the size of a walnut, and eventually the male lead, after ascending the throne, has him torn apart by five horses.

Bai Xiao grabs his luggage and tries to flee the marriage on the very night he transmigrates into the book. Unfortunately, his older brother catches him and forces him to marry the princess.

He closes his eyes, and the next thing he knows, he's in the bridal chamber.

To keep the male lead on his side, Bai Xiao keeps his head down and plays the obsequious consort. When the princess wants military power, he racks his brains to win it for her. When she wants to win over the court officials, he goes around handing out gifts. When she wants the throne, he immediately raises a rebellion.

Rumor has it that the prince consort dotes on the princess, while the princess doesn't seem to like him much.

One drunken mistake leads to a night of passion together.

Months later, Bai Xiao's belly starts to swell. Only then does he remember a detail from the original book: the prince consort has a special constitution.

That very night, the prince consort runs out of the princess's residence and heads for the grasslands without looking back.

The new emperor ascends the throne, and everything settles.

Feng Yun'an has Bai Xiao bound hand and foot and brought back to the Central Plains, then asks him with a perfectly serious expression what reward he wants.

Without a second thought, Bai Xiao asks for a divorce. If the male lead finds out he's carrying his child, both he and the baby will probably get killed.

That night, the emperor pins Bai Xiao down on the imperial bed.

Feng Yun'an whispers in his ear, "Consort, don't you agree to everything I ask? Become my empress."
