One ship, one people.
When Yu Huan woke up, she found herself aboard a pirate ship.
The ship's crown prince raised an eyebrow and asked, "Little spy, did you find what you were looking for?"
Yu Huan decided to brazen it out and protect herself. "I didn't find the thing I wanted, but I did find someone I want."
She pointed at the crown prince. "There. He's more to my liking."
The crown prince wasn't angry. He only smiled. "That mouth of yours is still so stubborn. Looks like you haven't suffered enough."
Then he cut off Yu Huan's food supply, leaving her rolling around in her cell with hunger. "I'm the princess of the Saixinbo. If you starve me to death, you'll regret it!"

The princess suddenly vanished. The captain and his wife searched the entire ship in a panic, but the news eventually reached the Huayang.
After checking the photo again and again to be sure, Huayang's crown prince Zhuang Bieyan said, "The princess of Saixinbo is certainly in the mood for adventure. You've come all the way to my ship."
Yu Huan put on a haughty air. "Since you know who I am, hurry up and let me go, then offer a formal apology. After that, treat me to a good meal. I'll let bygones be bygones."
Zhuang Bieyan: "..."

To expand its influence, an alliance through marriage was essential.
The Huayang chose to form an alliance with the Saixinbo. On their wedding night, the bride's veil was lifted, and two familiar faces stared at each other.
Yu Huan awkwardly raised a hand to greet him. "Hi. Surprised? I'm surprised too. How did two forces that were supposed to be mortal enemies suddenly end up marrying into each other's families? This world really is one enormous shoddy production... Hahaha."
