Chapter 137 - Punishment

"Your servant will definitely complete the mission!" It was like drawing a picture.

Wei Qing stretched and felt that the weather was exceptionally good today.

The night was getting darker.

Tian Sisi's chamber was still brightly lit.

"concubine, how about this servant bring you a few more candles!"

Tian Sisi stopped and rubbed her throbbing temples, "No need, if you're tired, you should get some rest first."

Hong Xiao felt warmth in her heart, "How about this servant help concubine copy it together!"

Tian Sisi smiled bitterly. The empress dowager was deliberately making things difficult for her, if she found that the handwriting was different, she had no idea how to punish herself.

If someone like them were to disappoint their lord, the result would definitely be very tragic.

"This servant will accompany you!"

Tian Sisi nodded her head, rested for a bit, and continued copying.

During the darkest period before dawn, everyone had already fallen asleep. No matter how strong Tian Sisi and Hong Xiao's patience was, they had started to get sleepy during this period.

"concubine, you have copied it for so long. Why don't you go to the bed and rest?"

Tian Sisi's eyes became sore, she rubbed her eyes, wanting to continue persevering, but in the end, her vision became blurry, and she had no choice but to go to the side to rest on the bed.

On the roof, Su Yun was holding his breath, waiting for Tian Sisi to wake up. He curled his lips, gently lifted up a piece of tile, and looked down, confirming that both Master and servant were fast asleep, he took out a white porcelain bottle filled with ink.

"Pata ~ ~"

The two drops of black ink accurately fell on the scriptures and soon covered a large area.

After confirming that everything had been completed, he quickly left Prince Chu’s Mansion.

When he woke up the next day, the dark clouds in the sky had grown thicker. Tian Sisi's eyes were bloodshot, shocking her.

"concubine, this servant will go get some water and apply some warm water to it!"

Tian Sisi did not care about all these, and anxiously went to the desk to continue copying, when her eyes fell on the few pages of scriptures that were already stained with ink, her face immediately turned clean.

"Hong Xiao!"

This slip of tongue caused Hong Xiao's heart to fiercely jump. She had already walked to the entrance of the sleeping quarters.

"concubine, what happened?"

"How did you do it?" Tian Sisi glared at her. She, whose eyes were already red, looked somewhat terrifying.

Hong Xiao was confused, she anxiously came over to the table and was surprised to see the scripture.

"This servant doesn't know either!"

"Hong Xiao, there's only the two of us in this chamber. You let me rest last night, did you …"

Although she didn't say it out loud, the meaning was very clear.

Hong Xiao said with a pale face, "concubine, you and this servant are both sent by the Lord. How can you suspect this servant so casually?"

Tian Sisi's brows were twisted into a ball, if it was not Hong Xiao, then who else could it be?

"concubine, now is not the time to find out who made the Buddha Scriptures dirty, but …" Although Hong Xiao was very sad, she still had to think for Tian Sisi. "The most important thing is how to report this to the empress dowager!"

It was good that he did not say it, but the moment he said it, Tian Sisi's expression became even uglier!

After muttering to herself repeatedly, she told Hong Xiao to go and invite Xiao Qingqian. She hoped that Xiao Qingqian could help her out because of their past friendship.

When Xiao Qingqian heard about this, he was already in the carriage preparing to go to the palace. When he heard that the scriptures were dirty, his face suddenly changed.

He had already warned Tian Sisi yesterday that he must keep the Buddha Scriptures clean.

He went to Tian Sisi's room with a solemn aura, looking at Tian Sisi who was carrying a scripture with a face full of worry, the anger in his heart grew even stronger.

"Your Highness!" Feeling the tight Qi from his body, Tian Sisi suddenly turned his head, and with a "putong", he kneeled down, "I was copying the Buddhist scriptures last night, I really do not know what happened!"

Xiao Qingqian did not pay attention to her. Instead, he picked up the scripture of the Buddha and looked at it seriously.

His forehead was buzzing, he turned to look at Tian Sisi.

This glance was shockingly cold!

Although he did not say anything, Tian Sisi could guess what he wanted to say.

After washing up, he went to the palace with Xiao Qingqian.

When the empress dowager heard that Tian Sisi had actually dirtied such a precious Buddhist scripture, she was extremely angry.

"Royal Grandmother, this time is indeed a little tight. Si'er was copying all night last night, perhaps she was too tired …"

Tian Sisi couldn't help but clench her sleeves, afraid that the empress dowager would directly ask Xiao Qingqian to kick her out of Prince Chu’s Mansion.

"Royal Grandmother, no matter what, Si'er has made a mistake and should be punished. Please do not be merciful!" Xiao Qingqian said with a solemn face.

Tian Sisi's eyes were once again filled with tears from the hot and wet liquid. She looked at Xiao Qingqian in shock, feeling that this man was so cold and heartless.

Tian Sisi unwillingly said, "No objections."

The empress dowager looked towards the Nanny Qiu, telling him to lead Tian Sisi to the shrine to recite some scriptures sincerely.

Xiao Qingqian said to the empress dowager, "Royal Grandmother, your grandson will get someone to copy a buddhist scripture as soon as possible. Please be at ease!"

"If you let This Dowager carry the Heavy Emperor's grandson as soon as possible, then This Dowager will truly be at ease!" The Empress Dowager looked at him meaningfully.

Xiao Qingqian did not utter a word.

"Wei Qing has already been in the Prime Minister's Estate for some time. If she doesn't return, can't you just go and find her?" The reason why the empress dowager had Tian Sisi stay in the Tzu Ning Palace was to give her and Xiao Qingqian more opportunities.

When Xiao Qingqian thought of Wei Qing, a hidden pain arose in his chest, causing him to unconsciously frown.

"Are you not willing?" Her Majesty raised her voice.

Xiao Qingqian shook his head, "This grandson will go to the Prime Minister's Palace to fetch Wei Qing back today."

The empress dowager's face looked slightly better. "Ah Qian, it's better if a woman isn't beautiful. When you go and look at a woman, you don't have to look at her face.

Xiao Qingqian nodded, "This grandson will remember the teachings of the Royal Grandmother!"

"Alright, This Dowager is tired. You can go now!"

After Xiao Qingqian left the Tzu Ning Palace, he found it hard to calm down.

As long as he thought of Wei Qing or had any intimate interactions with her recently, his heart would feel extreme pain. What was the reason?
