"Listen to me, this is an extraordinary period. The court may have to go to war, and the Ministry of Revenue will have to allocate a lot of funds. The prince has already spent a lot of money on the palace."
"So I hope that everyone will not spread the news of our grand banquet this time. If it gets out, it will not only be bad for this princess, but also for the prince."
"I hope you guys eat and drink well, and don't let this matter leak out, otherwise you will all be kicked out of the kitchen!"
After hearing Qian Ruoyu's words, the expressions on everyone's faces began to become serious.
After seeing them nod in agreement one by one, Qian Ruoyu felt a little relieved.
Early the next morning, after preparing meals for everyone in the palace, everyone returned to the kitchen and closed the door.
I just said that we could hold a celebratory party secretly.
Although everyone was busy at this time, the expressions on their faces were happy. Many of them had smiles on their faces. After all, the dishes and meat they prepared were prepared for themselves.
At this time, Qian Ruoyu called the smallest girl, Xiaohong, over and spoke to her softly.
"Xiaohong, please go to the woods about ten feet outside the kitchen and wait to see if anyone is coming this way. It will take about an incense stick of time, and I will let another maid take your place."
But after hearing Qian Ruoyu's words, Xiaohong just chuckled.
"Your Highness, you don't have to be so polite. Otherwise, just let me guard it alone. I still have ten baskets of vegetables to wash. I'll let the maids wash them for me. I'll go over there and have a good rest."
"Don't worry, Madam. I will never joke around when I go there. I will definitely keep a close eye on that place and not let anyone get close to it."
Qian Ruoyu was absolutely confident in Xiaohong, so he nodded slightly, and Xiaohong then climbed over the wall and ran out.
The wall of the kitchen was not very high, and Xiaohong could easily climb out, simply because the foundation of the inner courtyard of the kitchen was raised.
Therefore, it is easy to flip out from the inside, but it is not an easy thing to see inside from the outside.
After letting Xiaohong out to stand guard, Qian Ruoyu felt a little more relieved.
After all, it is possible to ensure that no one in the kitchen will tell anyone about this matter, but it is impossible to guarantee that someone from outside will not suddenly break in, including Li Zhiyi.
But just when Qian Ruoyu was thinking about this, a signal suddenly came from outside.
A little maid knocked on the door and hurriedly ran to Qian Ruoyu.
"Your Majesty, it's bad. The Concubine is here, and Xiaohong is blocking her way, but it seems to be of no use..."
Qian Ruoyu never thought that the devil would appear as soon as she mentioned him. It turned out that Li Zhiyi would appear at any inappropriate time!
Qian Ruoyu was also very clear that with Xiaohong's power and status, there was no way she could stop Li Zhiyi at all.
Qian Ruoyu nodded immediately.
However, the people around had already started to panic, especially Fatty Wang, who almost dropped his kitchen knife after hearing these words.
After all, if someone like Li Zhiyi, who specializes in making trouble, shows up, this place will inevitably be in turmoil, and it is even possible that what happened here will be spread out.
Although everyone in the palace had eaten, the food was not as rich as the delicacies here. Therefore, once they heard that a celebration banquet was being held here, they might feel very unbalanced.
Qian Ruoyu also wanted to hold such a special celebration party to firmly grasp the loyalty of everyone in the kitchen, so as to ensure that no other accidents would occur in the kitchen.
She said to Yan'er who was standing beside her.
"Yan'er, come with me. Fatty Wang, you continue to preside over the situation. Don't worry, today's celebration banquet will continue as usual!"
"If anything happens, I will take responsibility for it. You can continue playing music and dancing. I will go stop Li Zhiyi now!"
After saying that, Qian Ruoyu pulled Yan'er and went to the outside of the kitchen yard. As expected, they saw Li Zhiyi and Dan'er standing in front of Xiaohong.
But Daner just tried to pull Xiaohong aside, but Xiaohong just stood there, not moving at all.
"Why doesn't this damn girl move? Don't you know how to hit her?"
After hearing the order given by Li Zhiyi, Daner stretched out his hand and prepared to slap Xiaohong in the face.
Xiaohong just blocked it with her hands and had no intention of fighting back.
Even though Qian Ruoyu was backing her up, Xiaohong still had a clear idea in her mind.
If she dares to fight back or attack at this time, Li Zhiyi will have a way to deal with her at any time.
However, before the slap was delivered, Qian Ruoyu stopped it.
Qian Ruoyu stopped Dan'er and embraced Yan'er beside her, and even pushed Dan'er onto the grass on the side.
Dan'er lost his balance and fell into the grass with a scream.
"oops……"
After Dan'er screamed, Li Zhiyi pretended to be surprised and spoke immediately.
"Sister, what are you doing? Why did you allow your servants to attack my servants and even hurt them?"
Seeing Li Zhiyi's unreasonable look, Qian Ruoyu rolled her eyes at her. The master and servant were still so angry, but Qian Ruoyu spoke calmly.
"Didn't someone just send food to your yard? What's the matter? Isn't the food enough to keep you hungry? Do you have to keep coming to the kitchen to find food?"
Li Zhiyi said.
"It's true that you're full. I didn't say I came to the kitchen to find something to eat. Can't I come to the kitchen to take a look?"
But what Li Zhiyi didn't expect was that Qian Ruoyu directly said two words, "No!"
Qian Ruoyu's answer was simple and straightforward.
Although Li Zhiyi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists for a moment, she felt that Qian Ruoyu had no way to deal with her.
She knew very well that when Chu Mobai was around, she had no way to deal with Qian Ruoyu, not to mention that Chu Mobai was gone now. Li Zhiyi was even more helpless against Qian Ruoyu.
If Li Zhiyi dared to do anything to Qian Ruoyu, no one would need to take action. The dozens of people in the kitchen behind Qian Ruoyu would probably rush out directly.
Li Zhiyi increasingly found that the people in the kitchen were becoming more and more loyal to Qian Ruoyu, and only listened to Qian Ruoyu's words.
They all believed that Qian Ruoyu was the mistress of the palace and should be more loyal. As for Li Zhiyi, she was just a concubine. Now that the prince was gone, how could a concubine defeat the principal wife?
Even when Li Zhiyi asked the maid who brought the dishes to add more meat, the maid didn't listen at all and even said to Li Zhiyi: "Your Majesty, no, these are the princess's request. Everyone in the palace has their own rules for food."
