Chapter 1030: Chapter 1030: Since It’s Also a Powerful Nation, I’ll Go Plead with Great Chu

Feng Fuce reached out and pressed down on the railing.

"We can make it, it should be noon soon. If we don’t enter the city, I’m afraid you will be hungry."

As he finished speaking, the water suddenly underwent a subtle change.

The boats ahead somehow automatically retreated to both sides.

A straight path was opened up, allowing Bai Zhi’er and their boats to move forward.

Thus, no matter how severe the blockade was just now, it had no effect on Bai Zhi’er and them.

Their boat was the first to dock at the pier.

At this moment, the helmsman of the collided wedding boat and the helmsman of another boat were still arguing.

In the cabin of the wedding boat sat a woman dressed in luxurious clothing.

Looking closely, her attire was completely different from the style of the Qin Kingdom.

The extremely vibrant colors, paired with golden shining head ornaments, made her look even more radiant and beautiful.

However, her brows were furrowed with deep displeasure.

She flipped through the book, grew impatient after a while, and directly tossed it aside. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Auntie, I won’t read it anymore. I don’t want to learn even a bit of these Great Qin customs and rules!"

"Commandery Princess, that won’t do. Before departure, the Prince specifically instructed that you must marry Heir Ming Yang of the Qin Kingdom. Otherwise, the Prince will suffer."

Auntie picked up the booklet and placed it back into the woman’s hand.

"Dear Commandery Princess, please take another look."

The woman looked at the book in her hand, realizing she would soon lose control of her life, and tears began to fall.

"I can’t even read at my will now. Imagine how many grievances await me if I marry into the Qin Kingdom."

"Auntie, I suddenly miss my brother. If only he were here." She wiped her tears.

Auntie comforted her: "Commandery Princess, only by aligning with the Qin Kingdom’s power can you help the Prince and the Young Master."

The woman lifted her eyes, tears welling up: "Another strong country—can’t I seek help from Great Chu? At least I have friends there!"

Auntie was shocked: "Although the Chu Kingdom is gradually growing stronger, how can it compare with the century-old foundation of the Qin Kingdom?"

"Moreover, the friend the Commandery Princess mentioned is none other than Princess Cui Cuo of the Great Chu, isn’t it?"

"Before departure, a servant already inquired on your behalf, and Princess Cui Cuo is busy setting up the Wen Mansion to cultivate talents for Great Chu. How could she have time to help you?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Ruxin completely lost hope.

Her father, the Regent King, had overshadowed the Emperor for many years. The little emperor was gradually growing up, slowly reclaiming military power.

Now, not only was her brother Yuan Zhen restricted everywhere, but even her marriage couldn’t be decided by herself.

Her father, the Regent King, hoped she could leverage the power of the Qin Kingdom to intimidate the little emperor of the Yan Country.

But the little emperor was no longer the ignorant child of the past; he was not going to let Yuan Ruxin’s marriage succeed!

She leaned on the table, throwing a tantrum: "So annoying!"

"Even if I can’t refuse Heir Ming Yang of the Qin Kingdom, can’t I at least get off the boat? We’ve been drifting on the water for almost two months on this trip, and I’m utterly exhausted!"

"Moreover, they just said we were almost there. How come we’ve waited so long and still can’t dock?"

Auntie smiled while explaining: "The helmsman sent someone to report that a careless boat collided with ours and it’s being dealt with."

"It seems the other party is from a noble family as well, so the servant has already instructed the helmsmen not to create conflict if unnecessary, to avoid causing trouble for the Commandery Princess."

Yuan Ruxin, still in anger, said: "What are we afraid of? Just tell them if they’re dissatisfied, they can take it up with Heir Ming Yang of the Qin Kingdom!"
