You Asked Me to Stand In as the Princess's Consort. How Did You End Up Wearing the Imperial Robe?

Lin Xiao transmigrated into another world and became the stand-in for the Prince of Wu’s heir. Sent to the capital as a hostage, he arrived on the very day the real heir was to marry the Grand Princess. The real heir got injured, so they sent me to the bridal chamber in his place? What a sweet deal! The Grand Princess kept herself pure for her first love and treated me like a dog? Sorry, I’m the heir, and I’ve got a serious temper. Princess, why don’t you lie in bed for three days first… Li Wan’er, the capital’s most talented beauty, has a silver tongue? Excellent. Kneel down and let this heir see just how nimble it is. So what if you’re the richest man’s daughter? You’re still begging me to let you in on a business deal. Under the guise of being the “heir,” Lin Xiao meddled in court affairs, built factions, raised his own forces, and rose to power over the entire court. Prince of Wu: My son is a prodigy! Those two hundred thousand cavalry should be yours to command! The Emperor: My son-in-law is the true Son of Heaven! Come, come, it’s cold out. Put on this imperial robe. The Empress Dowager: Lin Xiao, thank you for helping me improve my cultivation so much. The real heir: What the hell! How did I become the stand-in?
