In the poetic competition in the Imperial court, she was accused by a wicked competitor that she had borrowed one of the poem from Manyoshu (a classical poem book) as her own. He showed to the court audience a copy of Manyoshu in which her poem was written. But Komachi noticed her poem was freshly written, she put the book in water.
