《Steal The Male Lead》1.1 When The Peach Blossoms Bloom
Advertisement
Fei Qianchi felt the aching in his head as he stared around the place he was in quickly. Noticing that the place he was in seems to be quite ancient and luxurious, he softly sighed.
Gosh dang it! Of course it had to be the Emperor's harem. That's where everything happens. He cursed his fate in his mind.
Then, the memories started entering his head. Fei Qianchi found out everything about the original owner of this body, Bai Mengxiang, someone who held quite a high position in the palace, he was the Imperial Noble Consort.
The story in this world started off with the main character, Shilian. Shilian was someone who had gotten reincarnated. He was supposed to be the villain in this story, but after he got reincarnated, he changed everything and ultimately became the main character.
The male lead in this story was Xu Yongheng, the Emperor.
Shilian entered the harem, and he did everything in his power to get Xu Yongheng's love. After the male lead completely falls in love with him, he is able to become the Empress after he dragged the Empress down from a scheme.
When he was already Empress, Bai Mengxiang poisoned Shilian when Shilian was found to be pregnant, ultimately killing the child. Bai Mengxiang was sentenced to death for his crimes.
Now, it was time for Bai Mengxiang's side of the story.
The original owner of the body was Bai Mengxiang, who was a Ger.
Gers were males who had the ability to give birth. They were recognized by a red mark on their body.
Bai Mengxiang was childhood sweethearts with the Emperor, Xu Yongheng, who was the male lead. When they got married, Bai Mengxiang was titled the Imperial Noble Consort.
Bai Mengxiang was from a powerful family, who had control over many noble families. When Bai Mengxiang first married Xu Yongheng, he was treated with love and care.
After a year, Xu Yongheng took in another concubine, Shilian, the main character who was reincarnated.
In the original story, Shilian was the evil villain, and Bai Mengxiang was the main character, but because of Shilian being reborn, Bai Mengxiang became the villain.

After entering the harem again, Shilian uses many tricks to make Xu Yongheng hate Bai Mengxiang, and to also climb the ladders of becoming the Empress.
Bai Mengxiang was born with beauty and kindness, everyone loved him. All the members of the palace harem knew that Bai Mengxiang had loved Xu Yongheng since he was a child. But Xu Yongheng, he was now madly in love with Shilian.
Bai Mengxiang was promised by Xu Yongheng on the day of their marriage that he would always love him and that the promise would never change.
At the time that Shilian entered the harem, after a few months he was able to become a consort. Miraculously, Bai Mengxiang was pregnant when Shilian became a consort.
When Shilian found out about Bai Mengxiang's pregnancy, he thought of a plan to make him lose his child.
Shilian's plan worked.
Bai Mengxiang lost his first child, but he knew that this was all Shilian's doings.
But he didn't do anything yet, he wanted to wait.
He knew that Xu Yongheng no longer loved him, he was cruelly left behind. Those promises were for naught, the man who once said those words had now changed his heart. He loved someone else. And Bai Mengxiang hated him for that. Hated him for not doing anything even when he had lost his child.
He wanted what happened to him to also happen to Shilian. Shilian killed his child, his innocent child, someone who had done nothing wrong. Why would it matter if he killed Shilian's child then? If Shilian could kill his child, then he should be able to do the same exact thing.
A parent's mistake, a child will have to repay.
So when Shilian was found to be pregnant, Bai Mengxiang got the help of other people, who were plotted against by Shilian, to help him with his plan.
His plans were also a success.
Shilian lost his child, but Bai Mengxiang was found out. His plans were revealed by those who helped him.
He was then sentenced by Xu Yongheng to death. Later, he was delivered a bowl of poison by Xu Yongheng. Xu Yongheng and Shilian came to see him moments before his death.

He didn't deny the accusation nor did he try to redeem himself, he wanted death. After telling Xu Yongheng all the things that he wanted to say, he drunk the bowl of poison.
And as he died, a tear slipped out from the corners of his eyes as he mumbled some words that weren't able to be heard by Xu Yongheng.
"When the peach blossoms bloom once more, I hope you will still remember me."
Wow...
As Fei Qianchi finished reading this, he couldn't help but feel sad for the original soul of this body. His story was so sad, it was heartbreaking.
Fei Qianchi felt bad that this person was made out to be the evil villain while the main character was someone who was even more cruel, yet he still got a happy ending. This main character sucked.
Fei Qianchi quietly vowed in his heart, Bai Mengxiang, I will make sure that the man you love also loves you wholeheartedly again.
Wait a minute!
(System, at what point of the story have I entered in?)
[Host, you have entered at the point where Shilian will be becoming a consort in one day.]
(Ok......Wait! That means that Bai Mengxiang is already pregnant, which means that I am pregnant. Why did you have to take me to this point? I just found out that I can get pregnant now, and yet, I'm already pregnant. Have you thought about how hard it will be for me to give birth!?)
[.........]
(System? How dare you leave me hanging!)
As Fei Qianchi was arguing with the System, a voice woke him.
"Imperial Noble Consort, the Emperor.....he will be heading to Imperial Concubine Shi's palace." A woman said as she appeared sadden while looking at Fei Qianchi's eyes.
Fei Qianchi looked at the woman. This woman was Bai Mengxiang's most loyal subordinate, and the only person to follow him to death. Her name was Xiao Lan, and she had been serving him for 15 years.
"It's fine, Xiao Lan. Prepare a bath for me." As Fei Qianchi said this, he made sure that his face appeared a little sad and pale.
"Yes, Imperial Noble Consort." Xiao Lan said before she walked away to get some warm water.
As she walked away, she couldn't help but feel sad for her master's fate. Her master had loved the Emperor so much, yet he was thrown away like this in the end. The Emperor use to love her master too. Back then, the Emperor had done everything to get her master's love.
When they got married, she thought that her master could finally be happy with the Emperor. Who would've knew that the Emperor would fall in love with someone else and throw her master aside?
Everyday, her master would sit and wait for any sign of the Emperor, and everyday, he was left all alone. Xiao Lan could feel her master's pain. She couldn't help her thoughts as she went to prepare Fei Qianchi's bath.
Fei Qianchi was left in the room alone, and so, he quickly grabbed the copper mirror by his side, and took a look at his face.
My gosh!
Such a heavenly beauty peered back at him. This person was so beautiful, even the gods would be ashamed. Everything about him was perfect. As he took a look at his body, he suddenly stared at his stomach. He had forgotten that he was now pregnant.
But, he didn't feel disgusted. All he wanted to do was protect this child that was never able to see the world, he wanted him to live.
Bai Mengxiang, I will make sure that you and your child will live the life that you had always wished for. I will make sure that that pathetic excuse of a main character gets utterly destroyed.
Bai Mengxiang, 21 years old
Xiao Lan, 23 years old,
