The herbs were handed over very quickly, and Qian Ruoyu felt much more at ease after seeing this handover.

After all, this handover situation was exactly as Qian Ruoyu had imagined.

Zhou Yuanliang reacted quickly and followed Aunt Zhou to put the herbs in.

Then Aunt Zhou walked over, and Zhou Yuanliang did not stop at all. Instead, he put the herbs one by one on the container.

Zhou Yuanliang's movements were smooth and skillful.

Yan'er also praised repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, you didn't expect Zhou Yuanliang to be so diligent... It seems we have found the right person this time!"

Qian Ruoyu just nodded slightly.

"Well, time will tell, and a journey will tell. Let's wait and see later. This is just the beginning."

After Aunt Zhou came over pushing the wheelbarrow, Qian Ruoyu said.

"Excuse me, Aunt Zhou. This is a small gift from me. I hope you can accept it."

Qian Ruoyu casually put the change into Aunt Zhou's hand again, and Aunt Zhou quickly took it, and this time she was not modest.

Aunt Zhou smiled.

"Thank you for your gift, Madam. By the way, Madam, this unicycle..."

Qian Ruoyu thought for a moment and said.

"I'll leave this wheelbarrow with you for now. Next time you deliver herbs, I'll put it in the store."

Aunt Zhou also nodded.

Qian Ruoyu then brought Yan'er back to the palace.

But just when they arrived at the gate of the palace, Aunt Zhang suddenly ran over.

"My Lady! Oh, we finally found you!"

Seeing Aunt Zhang so excited, Qian Ruoyu asked calmly.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Aunt Zhang said anxiously, breathlessly.

"My Queen! Something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!"

"The Concubine said that the food in our kitchen is not to her liking, and she is making trouble in the kitchen now... No! She is looking for an explanation in the kitchen!"

When hearing this, Qian Ruoyu frowned.

Li Zhiyi was so bold that she dared to come to the canteen to cause trouble less than two days after she took over the canteen.

If I don't teach Li Zhiyi a lesson today, won't she step on my head in the future?

Qian Ruoyu's face changed immediately, and then he took Zhang Ma and Yan'er and walked towards the kitchen.

Not long after, the three of them arrived at the door of the kitchen, but Qian Ruoyu did not go in immediately because he had heard Li Zhiyi's voice.

"What happened to you? Why does the food taste so bad these days?"

"Are you unable to hold the shovel anymore, or are your backs sore? The food I've been eating recently is really not to my liking. Redo it!"

Everyone looked unhappy.

At this time, the chef Fatty Liu came out.

"This... Madam, our cooking skills are still the same as before, there is absolutely no difference, how could the taste change..."

Li Zhiyi sneered.

"If I say it has changed, it has changed!"

"Do you have any objections, Fatty Liu? If you do, then you should just quit your job and pack up and leave the palace as soon as possible!"

After Li Zhiyi said this, Fatty Liu quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to say another word.

The workers in the palace could be said to have the easiest jobs and could at least support a family, so Fatty Liu naturally didn't dare to say anything more.

If he talked back, he would probably be kicked out of the palace.

If it was the housekeeper or the warehouse clerk who said this, it would be fine, but it was the concubine who said this.

His status in the palace could be considered among the top three, so naturally people didn't dare to say much.

But at this moment, a little girl came out.

Xiaohong said without hesitation.

"You, Concubine!"

Hearing someone calling her the Concubine made Li Zhiyi extremely unhappy.

After all, Qian Ruoyu was not around at this time, and she was actually called the Concubine. Li Zhiyi got angry all of a sudden and walked straight to Xiaohong.

"You, slap your face!"

The people standing by didn't dare to say or do anything more.

Instead, it was Xiaohong who asked.

"May I ask, Madam Concubine, have I done anything wrong to displease you? If so, please feel free to tell me. I am willing to accept the punishment!"

Qian Ruoyu, who was outside the kitchen at this time, was extremely surprised when he saw this scene.

Among this crowd, only Xiaohong dared to stand up and resist, and Xiaohong's words were extremely sharp.

This made Li Zhiyi even more unhappy, while Qian Ruoyu clapped lightly.

Aunt Zhang at the side asked hurriedly.

"Oh my... Madam, aren't we going in now?"

Qian Ruoyu said calmly.

"What are you going in for? If you go in now, Li Zhiyi will at most punish you on purpose. If that's the case, even if I scold her once, she will still make the same mistake in the future!"

"So I am standing here just to see what bad things she is going to do. If she is really guilty of something serious, I will make sure she doesn't even dare to enter the kitchen next time and give her a good lesson!"

After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Aunt Zhang suddenly understood.

At this time, Aunt Zhang nodded quickly and admired Qian Ruoyu very much in her heart.

Li Zhiyi's hands trembled a little as she listened to Xiaohong's words.

"You...you don't know what you did wrong? Either you slap yourself three times, or I will never let you go today!"

Xiaohong was almost unhappy after hearing this threat.

"My lady, are you threatening me?"

Xiao Hong was naturally unhappy because she was punished just for calling her Concubine Madam. What's more, she voluntarily called out the words Concubine Madam.

For Xiaohong, only Qian Ruoyu can truly be called the Queen.

Li Zhiyi was so angry that she beat me, but she still couldn't tell me Xiaohong's crime, so in the end she could only say.

"You...I am angry right now, and you deliberately said something to irritate me. This is your fault!"

"If you really don't want to, then you can pack up and leave from today. The palace doesn't need people like you!"

"Don't forget that in the palace, if you do something wrong, breathing is wrong!"

When Xiaohong suddenly heard these words, she gave up and prepared to leave.

Xiaohong took off her scarf and threw it aside.

"That's what you said!"

"If you don't want to do it, then don't do it! At most I can leave now. It's just calling you concubine, you are so petty!"

After Xiaohong finished speaking, she turned away, but was then caught by Daner who was standing next to her.

"How dare you be rude to the princess?"
