And it was only after this that Qian Ruoyu returned to the palace and prepared to carefully check whether everyone had done what he had ordered, so Qian Ruoyu found Butler Wang and Yan'er again.

After becoming the housekeeper, it was the first time that Yan'er was called over by Qian Ruoyu, so her face suddenly became a little more restrained.

Instead, it was Butler Wang who spoke calmly.

"Madam, we are here. Is there anything you need me to do?"

"I have already arranged things for Yan'er's housekeeper. In the past two hours, I have taken her on a tour of the entire palace. I have also told her that if there is anything she cannot decide, she can come to me at any time."

Obviously, Butler Wang did not feel neglected because of the addition of a butler. Instead, he performed very perfectly, which made Qian Ruoyu extremely appreciative.

After all, Butler Wang is the butler of the royal palace after all. He has served in the palace for decades and his temperament is quite stable.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Ruoyu nodded immediately.

"Next, I want to show you the situation in every corner of the palace. Make sure that no entrance or wall allows anyone to enter or escape."

After hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, Butler Wang nodded immediately, and although Yan'er was a little slow, she also nodded quickly.

Butler Wang walked in front, and Qian Ruoyu and others followed behind.

Following Butler Wang, everyone walked around the walls of the palace.

I saw that the walls of the entire palace were no longer the same as before. Almost every place where there were trees near the walls of the palace had the trees outside cut down.

There were even some broken stones and sharp blades placed on top of the wall to prevent anyone from trying to climb up the wall.

But in addition to that, the one coming towards them was a patrol team consisting of five servants.

"Hello, Madam!"

As soon as the five people saw it, they immediately looked towards Qian Ruoyu and bowed their heads to salute, but Qian Ruoyu waved his hand.

"No need to be so polite, just continue doing your things."

Everyone nodded and left in a hurry, and Butler Wang followed up with the introductions.

"There are a total of six patrol teams like this in the entire palace, with five people in each team. They will patrol the palace every half hour, and the key patrol areas are the corners of these walls. If they find any suspicious people, they will stop them immediately."

"And just when the first patrol team just returned to the starting point, the last patrol team was about to set off. This way, we can ensure a seamless connection within the entire palace."

Qian Ruoyu had never thought that Butler Wang could do things so perfectly. Qian Ruoyu even wanted to praise him in person, but this was just the beginning.

Butler Wang continued.

"In addition to this, we also have other specially set up patrols. The places where they patrol are not around the palace, but the various courtyards inside the palace."

"This patrol team is specifically looking around the palace to see if there are any suspicious people sneaking in. Princess, if that's the case, should we continue to deploy patrol teams in the large mansion next door?"

Qian Ruoyu thought about it for a moment and nodded immediately.

The large mansion on the other side, although only inhabited by the royal family, is equally important and can play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.

If something happened in the mansion over there, it would be much more troublesome, and the operation of the palace here would also be disrupted.

After thinking about this, Qian Ruoyu said again.

"Let the people living in that big house form their own patrol team. I will pay them the silver they need."

After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Butler Wang immediately nodded, and then took Qian Ruoyu to the warehouse.

At this time, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang were counting the things that had just been delivered at the door of the warehouse.

After seeing them, Qian Ruoyu slowly walked over, while Zhang Ma, Wang Po and others hurriedly bowed to Qian Ruoyu.

Qian Ruoyu coughed lightly.

"Ahem, it seems that you have forgotten the rules in the kitchen. I think I told you not to bow to me while you are busy with your own things, right?"

After hearing Qian Ruoyu's words, both Zhang Ma and Wang Po had embarrassed smiles on their faces.

Only then did they suddenly remember that according to the rules set by Qian Ruoyu, they did not need to perform any greetings to Qian Ruoyu while they were busy, so this would not be considered a disobedience to the princess.

Qian Ruoyu didn't waste too much time talking to the two of them, but asked directly.

"How is it going? How long can you guarantee the supply of food you have stored in the past two days?"

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang looked at each other before Aunt Zhang spoke.

"Reporting to Her Majesty, we have stored a large amount of food during this period of time. This food can ensure that we will be safe within 18 days. If it is not enough, we can continue to go out and buy more after 18 days. At that time, we will be able to ensure a constant supply of food."

But after hearing this, Qian Ruoyu smiled.

Although Qian Ruoyu didn't know how long this plague would last, she knew very well in her heart that if the plague really got too serious, it might not just be a matter of eighteen days.

How could we buy food on the street or anywhere else after 18 days? It was really naive.

After seeing Qian Ruoyu's smile, Aunt Zhang thought she had done something wrong and asked Qian Ruoyu nervously.

"My lady, isn't this food enough?"

Qian Ruoyu shook her head.

"This amount of food is really not enough. We need to store at least a month's worth of food. In addition, you have a new mission, which is to deliver food to the large mansions around us. No matter how expensive it is now, you must go to the market and buy all the food I need for a month!"

"You should do this right now. Both sides must ensure that they have enough food for more than a month. You should even instruct the people in the palace to prepare to grow vegetables in the palace. Only then can we ensure self-sufficiency."

When saying this, Qian Ruoyu even felt that she might be exaggerating a little.

After all, the culprits have now been caught, and if there is enough time, the plague can be completely eradicated.
