Chapter 86 Tired
The Empress Dowager deliberately wanted to make trouble for her, so how could she simply avoid it.

Except for sleeping and eating, she was almost born on a wooden chair, drawing strokes according to the Sanskrit text on the scriptures, and a thick stack of paper was placed on the table.

Si Shuang stomped her feet, let out a breath of white air, and her round face wrinkled into a ball: "Your Majesty has been writing for three days, and I couldn't lift my hands when I woke up this morning. There are not even half of the three scriptures up to now. After copying, the Empress Dowager will definitely blame her if it goes on like this."

The empress dowager emphasized the importance of copying the scriptures, and the nanny sent also emphasized that the handwriting must be the same, and that they cannot write on behalf of others. Even a scheming girl like Sishuang realized that the empress dowager was targeting Xiao Wanwan.

Cheng Shuang fiddled with the brazier with a wooden stick: "I have inquired about it. Concubine Xian spent a month copying the papers last year, so there is no such rush."

Sishuang's brows became familiar: "Master still can't understand Sanskrit, so he can only look up like a painting. In the beginning, so many sheets of paper were wasted, and the empress burns oil every day, what's wrong with her body?" I can bear it," Sishuang's eyes turned red after she said that, and she poked the brazier as if discouraged, "Master is such a good person, what should the Queen Mother do to deal with her?"

Cheng Shuang looked around, although this is still the boundary of Yongxiu Palace, but there are many hidden tricks in the palace, she warned Sishuang in a low voice: "Speak less and do more, be careful that misfortune comes out of your mouth."

"I really want to do it," Sishuang murmured in a low voice, "Your Majesty has a weak body, and I'm thick-skinned. If I could, I'd be more than willing to write for your Majesty."

"Sishuang." Xiao Wanwan called out.

"Here we come!" Sishuang immediately stood up and entered the room, Xiao Wanwan leaned back on the chair and said softly: "Hands are a little sore, help Bengong to rub them."

Sishuang rubbed her face while looking at her face. The lady who is usually so lively is now sluggish and listless. She persuaded: "My lady, go and rest for a while."

Xiao Wanwan smiled: "If you go to rest, what will you do with these scriptures?"

You can't finish copying even if you don't rest, Sishuang held this sentence in her heart.

Xiao Wanwan wrote for another half an hour, she was really exhausted, so she leaned on the desk to take a nap.

Cheng Shuang whispered: "I'll go to the Shangyi Bureau to get some more paper and ink, you take care of your mother, don't let your mother suffer from the cold."

The registered female official of the Shangyi Bureau said: "Yongxiu Palace only took a stack of Mingxuan two days ago, why come to pick it up again today?"

Mingxuan is a very precious kind of paper. An ordinary family can only buy two or three pieces of paper in a month. It is cumbersome to make and consumes manpower. There is a limit for each palace to receive it every month.

Cheng Shuang said: "The female official doesn't know something. The Empress Dowager ordered that Empress Jieyu copy the book, and then she will enshrine it in front of the Buddha. Naturally, the paper used must be the best, so it will not be considered an offense to the Buddha."

The female officer frowned slightly, and she said: "Even though the paper used by Empress Jieyu has a name, but now that the end of the year is approaching, there is not much left over for Ming Xuan paper, and the Hall of Mental Cultivation must always be prepared... The Ming Xuan paper you took this time , at most half of it can be taken away.”

Cheng Shuang's eyelashes trembled, and she asked, "When is the next time Mingxuan enters the warehouse?"

The female officer replied, "About half a month."

Cheng Shuang: "Your Majesty's difficulties are also known to servants and servants, but they really can't wait. Empress Jieyu will go to worship Buddha together in four days."

The female officer pondered for a long time, but did not come up with a conclusion, Cheng Shuang said: "Why don't you report it to Eunuch Li and let the emperor decide."
