Looking at her useless and unprepared appearance, Qian Ruoyu wanted to laugh.
But now is not the time to laugh at her, because now we should use this serious face to let her know that this matter will not be over so soon.
By the way, let Li Zhiyi have some quiet time during these two days.
After all, within these two days, not only does the old lady's birthday banquet have to be held, but Qian Ruoyu also has to enter the palace, so she has no time to continue fooling around with Li Zhiyi.
At this time, Li Zhiyi actually began to speak with some grievance.
"I...we were wrong...but, but my maid Dan'er really didn't mean to offend you just now...if you don't believe me, I'll ask her now."
Li Zhiyi turned to Dan'er and signaled with her eyes.
"Dan'er, tell me, and tell the princess, did you mean to offend her in any way just now?"
Daner nodded hurriedly and awkwardly.
It can be said that Daner is the most innocent in this matter.
Just because of a look, Qian Ruoyu blamed her so much that Dan'er almost cried.
Although Dan'er had been a little arrogant in the palace since following Li Zhiyi, he had never experienced such a wronged moment.
In the past, she was the only one who bullied others, but no one else bullied her.
Now he was being taught a lesson in public by Qian Ruoyu.
"No, no..." Daner shook his head again.
"I really didn't mean to offend the princess just now...Please understand, princess!"
Clear evidence?
When Qian Ruoyu heard these two words, she wanted to laugh.
After all, all Qian Ruoyu did was just to frame the two of them, which was not clear at all.
Besides, it’s a good opportunity to establish my authority as the mistress of the house.
But Qian Ruoyu said coldly.
"Haha, don't you know in your heart whether you have it or not? It doesn't matter if you don't admit it now. When you are taken to the clan house, the people inside will make you admit it!"
As Qian Ruoyu finished speaking, there was a puff.
Daner knelt down directly to Qian Ruoyu.
"Please understand, Princess. I really didn't mean to provoke you just now. I just turned around and glanced at you..."
Qian Ruoyu just sneered.
Li Zhiyi on the side couldn't help it anymore, and spoke anxiously at this time.
"Qian Ruoyu...we...we have apologized, but you can't be so unreasonable, right?"
"Unreasonable?" Qian Ruoyu showed a playful expression on her face.
"I was going to let you go after Dan'er apologized just now, but I didn't expect you to say such a thing. Do you mean that I deliberately framed you?"
Li Zhiyi's expression changed instantly.
She also didn't expect that Qian Ruoyu would take her casual words so seriously, and for a moment, Li Zhiyi didn't know what to say.
But Qian Ruoyu also knew that teasing the two people was just a temporary thing, and she didn't really want them to be taken away.
"Listen carefully to me, I just asked you to kneel down and apologize. One person has already kneeled down, so why is the other person still standing there?"
The person Qian Ruoyu was talking about was Li Zhiyi.
Li Zhiyi took a look and Qian Ruoyu was naturally reluctant to kneel down to her.
Although she had knelt down to Qian Ruoyu before, it didn't mean that Li Zhiyi was willing to do it that time.
Therefore, what Qian Ruoyu said made Li Zhiyi a little unacceptable, and she had no intention of kneeling down to Qian Ruoyu.
Qian Ruoyu said leisurely.
"Of course. It seems that the maid knows how to kowtow and kneel, but the master doesn't even know such a small thing. It seems that your kneeling to this princess before was all false."
"In that case, you don't need to kneel down, and you don't need to plead for mercy for your maid. When you go to the clan house, how can your maid plead for mercy with you naturally?"
After finishing speaking, Qian Ruoyu turned around and spoke to Zhou Zhubu and Yan'er beside him.
"You two are both clear evidence that Li Zhiyi and Dan'er came here at the same time today and showed no respect to this princess."
Yan'er naturally nodded without hesitation at the first moment.
Then both Li Zhiyi and Qian Ruoyu turned their attention to Zhou Zhubu.
After all, Zhou Zhubu is considered a neutral figure here.
The reason why Qian Ruoyu looked at Zhou Zhubu was because Zhou Zhubu was still a little unclear about his bias at this time. If Zhou Zhubu completely turned to him at this time, it would mean that he would have one more person of his own in the palace.
But in the next moment, Zhou Zhubu understood what he meant and said without hesitation.
"My Lady Concubine, I did see Miss Dan'er looking back at My Lady Princess just now. Her eyes were not kind. No wonder My Lady Princess was so angry."
"My humble opinion is not blind. This matter may not be a small matter. Once it is reported to the clan office, I am afraid that Miss Dan'er will inevitably be punished, and it will naturally affect your reputation!"
What Zhou Zhubu said was extremely fair. He neither pointed out that Dan'er had offended Qian Ruoyu at the first sight, nor did he simply favor Qian Ruoyu's side.
Although he did not directly side with Qian Ruoyu, the implication was very precise.
After hearing these words suddenly, Li Zhiyi also realized that it seemed that Dan'er's eyes just now did have some bad intentions, but this kind of look has also appeared on her face.
It was just because Dan'er was just a little maid and was caught red-handed by Qian Ruoyu that she was so unlucky.
In the end, Li Zhiyi bent her knees reluctantly and actually knelt directly in front of Qian Ruoyu.
But just after kneeling down, in the blink of an eye, Li Zhiyi quickly got up from the ground, as if nothing had happened in the previous blink of an eye.
"Okay, I've already knelt down, you won't keep asking us questions!"
Qian Ruoyu nodded with satisfaction.
"This time, I'll just count it as you kneeling down!"
"Next time, whether it's you or your maid, if you dare to do something that offends me, I will definitely not let you off easily!"
After hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, Li Zhiyi clenched her fists but did not say a word. Finally, she pulled Dan'er up from the ground, and the two of them left the warehouse together.
This time, Dan'er didn't look back at Qian Ruoyu. The two of them left as quickly as possible.
After the two of them left, Qian Ruoyu clapped his hands comfortably.
"Master Zhou, it seems that you have a very accurate eye. I didn't expect that you could even see Dan'er's eyes."
But in the next moment, Zhou Zhubu said with a smile.
"My Lady Princess, I didn't even see clearly where Miss Dan'er was looking just now..."
Hearing these words suddenly, Qian Ruoyu looked directly at Zhou Zhubu, and then the two of them smiled knowingly at each other.
