Boat number sixteen belonged to Prince Liang, rowed by robust guards with extraordinary strength, certainly capable of easily claiming the championship.
Chen Yi Ling beckoned, and Ping'er immediately leaned in close.
"Go tell those rowers that if they win today, they'll share the reward equally," she instructed.
There were twenty-three people on the dragon boat, and the reward was one hundred taels of silver, meaning that each person could get a little over four taels.
The rowers' families were all quite ordinary, so the prospect of silver would definitely spur them to give their all.
Li Mu'er raised an eyebrow: "Lady Qin, could it be that you can't afford to lose, thinking of some trickery?"
"I have always been upright and proper; I don't need to resort to trickery,"
Chen Yiling said pridefully.
She despised those who were unscrupulous and would never allow herself to become such a person.
