The gatekeeper was stunned when the deputy general said this.

He never expected that the deputy general would be so tough and had no intention of giving way.

The deputy general continued.

"Since you also said that you received the order from the Nine Gates Admiral, then I won't make it difficult for you. The Nine Gates Admiral is indeed a second-rank military commander, but our prince is a prince of the current dynasty! He is one rank higher than the official!"

"If you want to fight head-on, you might as well let the Nine Gates Admiral come out in person and see whose order is higher, him or the prince! If you insist on wasting our time here, I can't guarantee that my men will do anything to you, and then everyone will be embarrassed!"

"Besides, just do what you need to do now. You have so many gatekeepers who need to check back and forth. Do you think it's enough to waste my time?"

After hearing these words, the gatekeeper was speechless for a moment.

But after holding on for a while, the gatekeeper finally gave up and made way for the deputy general.

The deputy general even led everyone into the process, which made Qian Ruoyu and the fat proprietress feel much more relieved instantly.

The convoy then arrived at the palace smoothly, and under the auspices of Qian Ruoyu, entered the back of the palace.

Qian Ruoyu then asked Fatty Wang and others to prepare a table of good wine and food to entertain the dozen people headed by the deputy general.

Although the deputy general did not immediately accept Qian Ruoyu's kindness, after Qian Ruoyu's kind words, he finally followed Fatty Wang to the side hall of the palace for dinner.

After all, they were the prince's subordinates, so Qian Ruoyu felt that the deputy general and others were qualified to dine there. Moreover, after sending them away, it would be more convenient for Qian Ruoyu to put everything into his own yard.

Qian Ruoyu immediately ordered everyone to push the cart to the gate of his yard, and after putting all the goods into his room, he placed all the remaining clothes in a pile in the yard.

But at this time Qian Ruoyu did not stop, but continued to find Li Zhiyi, because Qian Ruoyu felt it was necessary to give Li Zhiyi some orders at this time.

After Li Zhiyi was called by Qian Ruoyu, she had an unhappy look on her face. This woman actually called her over for no reason. It must be something bad. But at this time, she didn't say a word. She just stared at Qian Ruoyu.

"What do you want?"

Qian Ruoyu said calmly.

"I don't want anything to happen. This time it wasn't me who said that. It was the prince who gave you the order himself."

When Li Zhiyi heard the word "Prince", she naturally began to calm down.

But she still had some doubts, because the prince always told her directly about everything instead of going through Qian Ruoyu.

Qian Ruoyu said calmly: "These clothes were sent from the military camp by the prince. Some of them are torn and need to be mended. The prince also said that you are a skilled person, and I believe your subordinates must be the same."

"So the king also needs you to work with me to sew these clothes properly. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me, but in order to give you some face in front of the prince, I decided that although I participated, I would not say that it was my credit."

Hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, Li Zhiyi felt even more surprised.

Li Zhiyi couldn't believe that Qian Ruoyu would give such a good credit to her, so she asked in confusion for a moment.

"Did I hear correctly? You are willing to give me such a great credit. Is there any conspiracy behind this?"

After saying that, Li Zhiyi took another look at the nearly a thousand pieces of clothes placed in the yard, because they were indeed a little tattered.

Qian Ruoyu still looked calm as he spoke.

"Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, just stand by and I will personally bring a few maids to mend these clothes!"

After all, Qian Ruoyu thought clearly about her maidservants. Although she had five or six eyes, it would still take an entire afternoon to mend these clothes. It would be better to let Li Zhiyi help.

However, the fat proprietress had already left the backyard with her people and did not stay in the yard at all.

When Li Zhiyi heard Qian Ruoyu say this, and saw that Qian Ruoyu's maids were already ready, she glanced at Dan'er beside her.

"Dan'er, go get our people over here. Get as many as you can!"

In less than an incense stick of time, Dan'er actually called over ten maids. Among these ten maids, some were doing odd jobs in other places in the palace, but Qian Ruoyu could see that these people were usually close to Li Zhiyi.

This also shows that Li Zhiyi does have some spies in the palace, and these people are obviously brought here by Li Zhiyi herself.

Then everyone entered Qian Ruoyu's yard, picked up a lot of needles and thread, and started doing needlework.

Sure enough, with the addition of Li Zhiyi's men, the speed of mending clothes became much faster. Qian Ruoyu originally expected it to take a whole afternoon, but it only took less than an hour to repair most of it.

This made Qian Ruoyu feel very surprised. It seemed that with the joining of the silly girl Li Zhiyi, this matter would become much easier.

The main purpose of Qian Ruoyu doing this is in the room at this time. Qian Ruoyu only needs to enter and put it into his own laboratory, and everything will be complete.

After nearly two hours, almost all the clothes had been repaired and stacked neatly on the cart one by one.

Qian Ruoyu naturally did not intend to take all the credit for herself, and decided to report both herself and Li Zhiyi to Chu Mobai at the same time.

At least he would be able to leave a good reputation for himself by then. Moreover, if people outside heard that he and Li Zhiyi, the concubine, helped each other at the same time, Chu Mobai would also have a better reputation in the capital.

After thinking about this, Qian Ruoyu just smiled slightly, with a little more emotion in his heart.

After finishing everything, Li Zhiyi was sweating profusely. Then she stood up and took a look at all the clothes on the cart, and said with some complacency.

"Humph... Aren't they just some clothes? They can be easily obtained... You won't lie to me then, will you?"

Qian Ruoyu smiled gently.

"What's the point in lying to you? The credit I promised you is your credit, and no one can take it away from you."

"Since it is completed, I will ask my deputy general to come over now and take the clothes back to the barracks. Then I will tell the prince all your contributions."
