The handover of the herbs was quickly completed. After seeing this handover, Qian Ruoyu felt much more at ease.
After all, this handover situation was exactly as Qian Ruoyu imagined.
Zhou Yuanliang reacted quickly and followed Aunt Zhou to put the herbs in.
Then Aunt Zhou walked over, and Zhou Yuanliang didn't stop at all. Instead, he put the herbs one by one on the container.
Zhou Yuanliang's movements were smooth and deft.
Yan'er also praised her repeatedly.
"My Majesty didn't expect that Zhou Yuanliang would be so diligent... It seems that we have found the right person this time!"
Qian Ruoyu just nodded slightly.
"Well, as time goes by, people's hearts will be revealed, and horses' strength will be known by the distance. Let's look at it later. This is just the beginning."
After Mrs. Zhou came over pushing a wheelbarrow, Qian Ruoyu said.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Aunt Zhou, this is my little thought, I hope you can accept it."
Qian Ruoyu casually put the broken silver into Aunt Zhou's hand again, and Aunt Zhou quickly picked it up, not being modest this time.
Aunt Zhou smiled.
"Thank you for the gift, by the way, your Majesty, this unicycle..."
Qian Ruoyu thought for a moment and then said.
"I'll leave this wheelbarrow at your place for now. Next time I deliver the herbs, I'll put it in the shop."
Aunt Zhou also nodded.
Qian Ruoyu then returned to the palace with Yan'er.
But just when they arrived at the gate of the palace, Zhang Ma suddenly ran over.
"The concubine said that the food in our dining room is not to her liking, and she is making trouble in the dining room now... No! She is looking for an explanation in the dining room!"
When he heard these words, Qian Ruoyu frowned.
This Li Zhiyi is so brave. She dared to come to the dining room to cause trouble less than two days after she took over the dining room.
If he doesn't do well today and teaches Li Zhiyi a lesson, wouldn't it mean that he will step on his own head in the future?
Qian Ruoyu's expression immediately changed, and then she walked towards the dining room with Zhang Ma and Yan'er.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the door of the dining room, but Qian Ruoyu did not go in immediately because she had already heard Li Zhiyi's voice.
"What did you do? Why does the cooking taste so bad during this period?"
"Are you unable to lift the shovel, or do you have a sore back? The food you have been eating during this period is really not to my liking. I need to redo it again!"
Everyone looked resentful.
At this time, Chef Liu Fatty came out.
"This... Madam, our cooking skills are still the same as before. There is no difference at all. How could the taste also change..."
Li Zhiyi sneered.
"If I say it's changed, I've changed!"
"Do you, Fatty Liu, have any objections? If you have any objections, then don't do it. Just pack up and leave as soon as possible today and get out of the palace!"
As soon as Li Zhiyi said this, Fatty Liu quickly lowered his head and did not dare to say another word.
A job in the palace can be said to be the most relaxing one and can provide a living for the family, so Fatty Liu naturally did not dare to say anything.
If he talks back, he might really just be kicked out of the palace.
If it were the housekeeper or the storekeeper, it would be okay to say this, but it happened to be the concubine who said these words.
His status in the palace can be considered to be among the top three, so naturally no one dared to say much.
But at this moment, a little girl walked out.
Xiao Hong said without hesitation.
"You, concubine!"
Hearing someone call her the concubine directly made Li Zhiyi feel extremely unhappy.
After all, Qian Ruoyu was not around at this time, so he was called the concubine. Li Zhiyi suddenly became angry and walked directly in front of Xiaohong.
"You, Palm Mouth!"
The few people on the side did not dare to say anything more or do anything more.
Instead, Xiaohong asked.
"I dare to ask my concubine, did I do something bad that made you unhappy? If so, please feel free to tell me. Xiaohong will accept the punishment voluntarily!"
Qian Ruoyu, who was outside the dining room at this time, was extremely surprised when she saw this scene.
Among all the people, only Xiao Hong dared to stand up and resist, and Xiao Hong's words were extremely sharp.
This made Li Zhiyi even more unhappy, while Qian Ruoyu clapped gently.
Zhang Ma on the side asked quickly.
"Oh... Madam, don't we go in now?"
Qian Ruoyu said calmly.
"What are you going in for? If you go in now, Li Zhiyi will only deliberately punish you. If this is the case, even if I tell her off once, she will still make mistakes in the future!"
"So I am standing here just to see what bad things she will do. If she is really guilty, I will make her not even dare to enter the dining room next time and teach her a lesson!"
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Zhang Ma suddenly realized.
Zhang Ma also nodded quickly at this time, and she admired Qian Ruoyu in her heart.
Li Zhiyi's hands trembled even more as she listened to Xiao Hong's words.
"You...don't you know what mistake you made? Either slap yourself three times, or I will never end this day with you!"
Xiaohong was almost unhappy after hearing this threat.
"Empress, are you threatening me?"
Xiaohong was naturally unhappy that she was being punished just for calling her Concubine Concubine, not to mention that she still voluntarily called out the four words Concubine Concubine.
For Xiaohong, only Qian Ruoyu can truly be called empress.
Li Zhiyi was so angry that she yelled at me, but she still couldn't tell Xiao Hong's crime, so she could only say it in the end.
"You...I am angry right now. You deliberately spoke to anger me. This is your fault!"
"If you really don't want to, then you can pack up and get out from today. The palace doesn't need people like you!"
"Don't forget that as long as you do something wrong in the palace, your breathing will be wrong!"
When she suddenly heard these words, Xiaohong immediately dropped her pick and prepared to leave.
Xiaohong took off the scarf and threw it aside.
"That's what you said!"
"If you don't want to do it, then I'll do it! At worst, I'll leave now. I'll just call you Concubine. You're so petty!"
After Xiao Hong finished speaking, she walked away, but was caught by Dan'er next to her.
