Spit out the famous sayings of celebrities in history
Empress Dowager Cixi is one of the most famous female figures in the history of China. She was in power for most of the time after Xianfeng in the late Qing Dynasty. Empress Dowager Cixi has a bad reputation in history. One of the reasons is that she is very extravagant. Empress Dowager Cixi is more luxurious than most emperors in Qing Dynasty, and only Emperor Qianlong can catch up with the luxury of Empress Dowager Cixi. Empress Dowager Cixi was not only extravagant before her death, but also after her death. After Sun Dianying stole the mausoleum of Empress Dowager Cixi, she gained countless treasures. It is said that Empress Dowager Cixi was so extravagant that she had to wait on the ladies-in-waiting with her mouth when she went to the toilet. What happened?

The toilet paper used by Empress Dowager Cixi is different from ordinary people. This kind of toilet paper itself is soft and delicate, and it is customized by a special person for Empress Dowager Cixi. But even so, Empress Dowager Cixi was not satisfied. She thinks toilet paper is not soft and delicate enough. Therefore, whenever Empress Dowager Cixi goes to the toilet, a maid-in-waiting must stand by and wait on her. The maid-in-waiting stood there quietly with a mouthful of water in her mouth. After Empress Dowager Cixi went to the toilet, the maid-in-waiting would take out the toilet paper and then gently spray a layer of water on the toilet paper with her mouth. The purpose of this is to make toilet paper softer. Cixi likes to use this softened toilet paper.

The reason why ladies-in-waiting are allowed to spray water on toilet paper with their mouths is because toilet paper can't be stained with too much water, otherwise it will be easily broken, so toilet paper can't be directly immersed in water. At that time, there was no spray bottle like this, so we had to spray water manually by maids.

Many people think that Empress Dowager Cixi is too extravagant when they see this place, but few people question the truth of this statement. After all, Empress Dowager Cixi is a famous luxury, and even if it is really done, everyone will not feel strange. However, the statement that Empress Dowager Cixi went to the toilet to let the maid spray water on the toilet paper with her mouth is said to be fabricated, and there is no evidence to prove that Empress Dowager Cixi did so.

This really should be the sentence. Once a person has a bad reputation, someone will deliberately discredit her. Empress Dowager Cixi is such an example.
