One word is worth thousands of troops.
When Lin Bao came to his senses, Xiahou Jinnian had already put back the whip, puffed out his cheeks and said in a dull voice: "Brother Nianhua—"
years
Lin Bao looked forward, and sure enough - Nianhua, dressed in official uniform, was walking toward them with steady steps, like the man walking out of a painting.
Tsk tsk tsk, the handsome man is indeed a handsome man, I can’t get enough of him.
When he came closer, I heard him start to reprimand Xiahou Jinnian: "Jinnian, have you forgotten everything I said yesterday? And - have you finished copying the Analects of Confucius that I asked you to copy?"
Hearing this, Xiahou Jinnian had already impatiently covered his ears with his hands, hid far away, and muttered: "Didn't you say something about the future?"
Nianhua pursed his lips and said, "Jinnian, go back and copy it ten times."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiahou Jinnian hugged Nianhua's arm and began to act coquettishly, "No, brother Nianhua - ten times is too many... I haven't even finished copying what I wrote yesterday."
"Fifteen times." Nian Hua said calmly, obviously he didn't like this!
These are good, Xiahou Jinnian was completely distraught, pointed at Lin Bao and said angrily: "Brother Nianhua, tell the truth, have you fallen in love with this little eunuch?"
"puff-"
Lin Bao almost choked on his own saliva, leaned over and coughed: "Cough cough cough—"
Unexpectedly, Nianhua didn't even look at her and said calmly: "I said rude words twenty times."
"Twenty times?!—Brother, please kill me!" Xiahou Jinnian cried sadly.
At this moment, Eunuch An hurried over, looked at Lin Bao reproachfully, and said, "Little Baozi, why are you running around? Don't do this next time!"
—Did Eunuch An come here just to find her and scold her
Ahem, obviously impossible.
After reprimanding her, Eunuch An said to Nian Hua with a smile on his face: "Master Nian, come with me. The emperor invites you to go to the imperial study to discuss matters."
Imperial study room
Lin Bao was stunned. She only narrowed her eyes for a short while. Why did they even finish the morning service
There was nothing to do now, so Lin Bao had no choice but to follow Eunuch An to wait in the imperial dining room, while Xiahou Jinnian was forced to go there by Nianhua, saying that it would save him from causing trouble everywhere.
Along the way, Xiahou Jinnian looked coldly at Lin Bao. When Nian Hua wasn't paying attention, he pulled Lin Bao and said, "Little Baozi, I will remember you! Don't think about it being easy in the future!"
Lin Bao trembled inexplicably after hearing this.

Outside the imperial study, Lin Bao was waiting with tea. Xiahou Jinnian picked up the tea and drank it without any politeness at all, saying: "Why don't you go and pour me another cup?"
Lin Bao said angrily: "This tea is prepared for Mr. Nian. If you drink it, be careful and copy the Analects of Confucius ten times!"
You must know that Xiahou Jinnian hated others exposing his shortcomings the most in his life. He blushed, reached out and grabbed Lin Bao's collar, and said fiercely: "Can you say it again?"
"Humph, you asked me to say it, but I didn't say it yet!" Lin Bao turned away, looking ungrateful.
There was another thing that made Xiahou Jinnian very annoying in his life - that is, others always provoked him.
Just in time, Lin Bao touched both points.
However, this time he was not in a hurry to teach her a lesson. Instead, as if he had discovered something new, he stared at her breasts and wondered: "It's strange, how come your little eunuch's breasts are soft?"
