Li Zhiyi also wanted to take this opportunity to pretend to faint and leaned into Dan'er's arms.

Qian Ruoyu saw through it immediately after taking a look.

"You don't have to pretend. People who faint will have their eyes rolled back. Do you think you look like that?"

Qian Ruoyu was just making this up.

Fainting situations vary, and naturally there will be various different manifestations.

But after hearing Qian Ruoyu's words, Li Zhiyi actually believed it. Then she slowly opened her eyes and looked at Qian Ruoyu with some hatred.

After all, she also knew that Qian Ruoyu knew some medical skills, and thought that what Qian Ruoyu said might be true.

"You...you bully me..."

Li Zhiyi had no choice but to say only these words.

At this time, everyone in the kitchen was looking at her and Dan'er, as if waiting for them to embarrass themselves.

Because of Qian Ruoyu's presence, everyone was not afraid of her anymore, which made Li Zhiyi even more worried.

Qian Ruoyu said directly.

"How did I bully you? Isn't it because you bullied these people first? I just came out to redress their injustice. You can't get angry with these people. Do you think they can't bully you?"

"If that's the case, I'll give you one more chance. Now bring out the evidence to prove that they stole the things, otherwise you must apologize to them!"

Is it fair for a master to apologize to his servant?

What the master says is what he means, so there is no reason for him to apologize to his servants.

Besides, servants must obey their master unconditionally.

Therefore, when Li Zhiyi heard this, she did not even think about the so-called evidence, but immediately resisted strongly.

"Qian Ruoyu, I advise you not to go too far! How can a master apologize to his servants? If this matter gets out, I will become the laughing stock of the entire capital, and the palace will also become the laughing stock of the entire capital's dignitaries!"

Yan'er, who was standing by, also whispered a reminder to Qian Ruoyu.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty is right..."

"There is a hierarchy. It's good that she apologized to you... If you ask the concubine to apologize to these servants, it might be immoral. If it gets out, the prince will lose face!"

After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu suddenly realized the era he was living in.

In this era, there is a strict hierarchy and order of respect and inferiority. If I act recklessly, something might really happen. Moreover, this matter also involves the reputation of the Wang family.

The thought of this made Qian Ruoyu feel a little troubled, after all, what he just said had already been said.

Seeing Qian Ruoyu in such deep thought, Li Zhiyi also looked proud. After all, this way she wouldn't have to apologize to these servants.

However, Qian Ruoyu also saw Li Zhiyi's expression.

So after thinking about it for a while, Qian Ruoyu said this.

"What's wrong with apologizing?"

"Will apologizing cost you anything? Your apology in the kitchen today won't be spread out tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I promise that no one here will tell anyone about your apology."

Li Zhiyi was stunned.

She never expected Qian Ruoyu to make such a guarantee.

Qian Ruoyu then looked at everyone in the kitchen and spoke to them.

"I believe that everyone needs an apology from Li Zhiyi. If Li Zhiyi can't produce any evidence and is framing you, she needs to apologize to you."

"It's just that this apology is a private one, and it's limited to this kitchen. If anyone spreads this matter and damages the Wang family's reputation, don't blame me for being rude!"

When saying the last sentence, Qian Ruoyu's face turned cold and his tone suddenly changed.

Everyone also knew that Qian Ruoyu was not joking.

At this moment, everyone raised their left hands and began to swear in unison.

Xiaohong also hurried to Qian Ruoyu's side and said with her hand raised.

"I, Xiaohong, swear that I will never tell anyone about what happened today. If I break my oath, I am willing to accept any punishment from the Queen!"

What the others said was similar to what Xiaohong said.

Qian Ruoyu spoke to Li Zhiyi after seeing that everyone had finished speaking.

"Okay, everyone in the kitchen has sworn an oath. If this matter gets out, then it will be your fault or your maid's!"

When she heard this, Li Zhiyi quickly looked at Dan'er beside her.

Although Dan'er had followed her for many years, Li Zhiyi still felt scared when she saw this.

Qian Ruoyu also diverted the conflict with just one sentence.

Daner quickly raised his hand and swore.

"I...I swear, this matter will never be spread, otherwise I am willing to accept any punishment!"

Just after Dan'er admitted it, Qian Ruoyu reached out to Li Zhiyi, wanting to help her up.

"Now I'm going to help you up. If you have evidence, show it to prove that it was stolen by everyone. Otherwise, apologize to everyone!"

"Since you consider yourself the master, you don't need to kneel or kowtow. Just bow your head to everyone. Now, show us your evidence."

Li Zhiyi hesitated.

Obviously she had no evidence at all and was just talking nonsense from the beginning.

Just because I saw these people possessed these rouge, powder and precious Chinese herbs, I thought they were stolen. Now I find out that Qian Ruoyu is behind it.

Now Li Zhiyi is a little suspicious. Was it Qian Ruoyu who deliberately did something behind her back to embarrass her?

After a silence of nearly half an incense stick of time, Qian Ruoyu finally spoke.

"Okay, it's time for you to present your evidence. If the time you just gave isn't enough, I won't give you any more time."

"Either hand over the evidence immediately, or apologize to everyone right away. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what the outcome of this matter will be!"

Li Zhiyi took a look and Qian Ruoyu felt a little scared.

Qian Ruoyu then said, "Whether we tell the Dali Temple or Jingzhao Prefecture, or tell this matter to the prince, let's see how the prince will decide?"

"You may not believe it, but I will make this matter as big as possible!"

Helplessly, Li Zhiyi lowered her head.

She knew that if she didn't do as she was told, Qian Ruoyu might really do so. After all, Qian Ruoyu had done a lot of surprising things.

So Li Zhiyi looked at everyone in the kitchen, and Xiaohong hurriedly ran in the direction she was facing.

Li Zhiyi said as she lowered her head.

"This Queen... This Queen did not mean to frame you for stealing. This is all my fault..."

After Li Zhiyi finished speaking, everyone nodded. After all, getting such a barely formal apology from Li Zhiyi was enough to satisfy everyone!
