It was precisely because of this reason that Li Zhiyi did not eat enough.

It was precisely because Li Zhiyi was not full that she brought Dan'er to the kitchen to look for food.

But she never expected Qian Ruoyu to appear at the door of the kitchen, which completely scared her.

It was also because of Qian Ruoyu's appearance that Li Zhiyi chose to be stubborn instead of directly saying that she was not full.

After all, not having enough to eat is a small matter, but if she loses face in front of Qian Ruoyu, that would be a big deal, so she chose to continue to be stubborn.

"The kitchen is being cleaned right now. If there's nothing else, you can leave right away."

After Qian Ruoyu finished speaking, he saw an expression of dissatisfaction on Li Zhiyi's face.

At this moment, Li Zhiyi's stomach started to growl.

After seeing Li Zhiyi's appearance, Qian Ruoyu naturally understood that Li Zhiyi had indeed come here to find food, but Li Zhiyi didn't dare to tell her at all.

The more this happened, the less Qian Ruoyu cared. This woman's affairs had nothing to do with her.

Li Zhiyi also knew that her stomach was rumbling too loudly, so Dan'er beside her hurriedly covered it up.

"Just now, I accidentally soiled our Madam's food, so our Madam only ate less than half of it."

"My Lady Princess, our Lady doesn't eat much to begin with, and now she only eats half of what she used to. Even if I don't eat anymore, you should at least let our Lady eat a little more, right?"

"The prince is still in the military camp outside the city. You're letting our queen starve before the prince leaves. What will we do if the prince leaves?"

Daner directly shifted the focus to Chu Mobai, trying to use Chu Mobai's big signboard to suppress Qian Ruoyu.

After hearing what she said, Li Zhiyi was even happier and felt that what Dan'er said was right.

Dan'er is still loyal to Li Zhiyi and is even finding excuses to exonerate her at this time.

But then Qian Ruoyu decided to take advantage of Dan'er's words to deal with Dan'er and Li Zhiyi.

"So you also knew that the prince was still in the capital? Since you already knew that the prince was still in the capital, why did you come to the kitchen to cause trouble with me? If this is not your fault, then is it my fault?"

Dan'er and Li Zhiyi were stunned when they suddenly heard Qian Ruoyu's words.

They never imagined that the criticism would turn towards them again.

However, Qian Ruoyu did not stop, but continued speaking.

"Besides, isn't the key issue that Dan'er soiled Li Zhiyi's belongings? If that's the case, Dan'er should be punished first!"

"Someone come!"

As Qian Ruoyu just opened her mouth, Xiaohong beside her immediately reacted, "Yes!"

After hearing what Xiaohong said, Yan'er also nodded quickly, "Yes!"

Qian Ruoyu pointed at Daner and said.

"It's ok for this maid to waste food, but she also wasted Li Zhiyi's food. Li Zhiyi is the concubine of our palace. Now her food is being wasted like this. It obviously means that Dan'er doesn't respect her master, and the most important thing is that she wasted food!"

"Catch Dan'er for me. I'm going to punish her severely!"

Following Qian Ruoyu's order, Xiaohong came to Dan'er's side immediately, and Yan'er followed quickly. Then the two of them grabbed Dan'er's hands.

Dan'er never imagined that she was just helping Li Zhiyi to speak, but she was caught by two people and couldn't move at all, so she hurriedly asked Li Zhiyi for help.

"My Queen, help me, help me!"

Just when Li Zhiyi was about to speak, Qian Ruoyu came in front of Li Zhiyi and gently pushed Li Zhiyi back two steps.

"Hey, what are you doing..."

Qian Ruoyu said without turning her head.

"What else can I do except help you teach your ignorant and disobedient maid a lesson?"

"Don't worry, your maid is ignorant and clumsy. I will definitely let this little girl know what a real lesson is!"

As soon as Qian Ruoyu finished saying this, he slapped Daner in the face.

Qian Ruoyu had long wanted to beat up Dan'er. After all, a lot of things Li Zhiyi did were related to Dan'er. Although the chicken soup incident had nothing to do with Dan'er, Dan'er had given Li Zhiyi advice many times.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Dan'er is Li Zhiyi's strategist.

Otherwise, with Li Zhiyi's stupid brain, how could she have poisoned so many times?

After Qian Ruoyu slapped Dan'er, she suddenly panicked. Only then did she realize that Qian Ruoyu was serious.

Especially since this slap was so powerful, Daner felt his face suddenly become crooked.

After seeing this scene, Li Zhiyi hurriedly walked up and wanted to hold Qian Ruoyu's back, but Qian Ruoyu turned around again and pushed Li Zhiyi back several steps.

Qian Ruoyu naturally knew that after she beat Dan'er, Li Zhiyi would definitely rush over. After all, she was her maid, so how could she just ignore her?

But Qian Ruoyu also controlled a certain amount of strength in her hands to prevent Li Zhiyi from falling down. If Li Zhiyi fell down by herself, then she would definitely have something to do.

After taking several steps back, Li Zhiyi found that she did not fall, so she walked up to Qian Ruoyu again and spoke.

"Qian Ruoyu, you are not allowed to punish my maid. Dan'er is my maid. As I said, when you beat a dog, you have to look at its owner first. Do you think of me..."

When Li Zhiyi said this, she felt a little aggrieved.

Especially when Chu Mobai was not in the palace, she never thought that Qian Ruoyu would dare to be so arrogant and want to punish her maid in front of her.

Qian Ruoyu just sneered.

"What do you mean by 'beating a dog requires looking at its owner'? I don't understand what this means. Are you saying that you are the owner of the palace?"

Qian Ruoyu's deliberately unreasonable attitude made Li Zhiyi start to get angry.

Qian Ruoyu then punished Daner a few more times and said at the same time.

"What's wrong? Even in this situation, you still don't plan to admit your mistake and apologize?"

Dan'er then realized that Qian Ruoyu was asking her to admit her mistake and apologize, but Li Zhiyi immediately interrupted her.

"Dan'er, I won't allow you to apologize!"

"Even if you dirty my food, I don't blame you. You don't have to apologize to me!"

After saying this, Li Zhiyi looked at Qian Ruoyu's back.

"Qian Ruoyu... don't think that I'm afraid of you just because you're the queen... you bullied my maid today, sooner or later I'll bully her back... why should my maid let you bully her like this! Don't do it again! I'm angry!"

Li Zhiyi felt extremely wronged. She had never suffered such injustice before.
