Cluck-cluck......

On the street outside the palace, there was a series of horses' hooves, which also touched the hearts of everyone standing at the gate of the palace.

At this time, at the door of the Guangde Hundred Households, there was a figure of people in the red measurement.

The three chief flag officers stood in the front, and the nine small flag officers in the back lined up.

Except for Liu Yucai, who could not be present, all the people in the earth-red official uniforms were here, and at this time, they were as respectful as ordinary school captains, standing motionless at the entrance of the yamen.

This is a bitter thing for the officers on duty at the gate of the yamen today, who have never seen such a battle on weekdays, and a kind of pressure arises spontaneously.

Cluck-cluck...... The sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and finally Zhou Wenzhu appeared at the corner of the street first.

In order to return to Guangde as soon as possible, Zhou Wenzhu and his entourage gave up the carriage and came back quickly.

When Zhou Wenzhu arrived outside the main gate of the Yamen, Zhang Zhenshan and other three chief flag officers took their small flags, and more than a dozen people walked down the stairs together.

"Humble duty, see Lord Baihu!"

More than a dozen small flags knelt down in front of Zhou Wenzhu's horse, and the sound of saluting came from afar.

Zhou Wenzhu's face was still black at this time, which made Wu Ye and Liu Gaoming, who were lying on the ground, nervous, and they naturally felt scared if they had a ghost in their hearts.

After waiting for a full ten seconds, Zhou Wenzhu jumped off his horse and stepped in front of a kind of subordinate.

If it was in the past, seeing this situation, Zhou Wenzhu would firmly believe that his control over his subordinates was strong.

But after this incident, he would never have this thought again.

Thinking of these things, the anger in his heart bubbled out, and it wasn't until he saw Zhang Zhenshan that the iceberg on his face melted a little.

After walking in front of Zhang Zhenshan, Zhou Wenzhu helped him up, and said at the same time: "Mr. Zhang, you have worked hard during this time, hurry up and excuse me!" ”

Helped up by Zhou Wenzhu, Zhang Zhenshan was a little frightened for a while and said: "My lord's words are serious, my humble duty is just due diligence, how dare I say bitterness!" ”

"Merit is meritorious, the official will not ignore it, and the Lord of the Thousand Households will not ignore it!" Zhang Zhenshan said slowly, with great meaning in his tone.

When he heard these four words of Lord Qianhu, Zhang Zhenshan's heart trembled slightly, and he was touched by a long time and had a faint sense of expectation for the future.

He is not yet forty this year, and he still has thoughts about the future.

At this time, looking at the other people kneeling on the ground, Zhou Wenzhu said, "You are all exempt from courtesy!" ”

Only then did the others stand up and surround Zhou Wenzhu in the middle.

Zhou Wenzhu turned around, pointed to Qu Zhenghao and Xu Chengwang, who had already dismounted, and said, "Let me introduce you to ......"

"This is Qu Zhenghao Qu Xiaoqi, this is Xu Chengwang Xu Xiaoqi, the two of them were sent down by the Lord of Qianhu, you get to know each other!"

The officials didn't care about the two of them before, but at this time, they heard that they were sent by Shen Yue, and they all paid a little attention to these two people in their hearts.

"Okay, I'll talk about it later, let's go in first!" Zhou Wenzhu said in a deep voice.

After he took the first step, everyone else also stepped forward, but the closest to Zhou Wenzhu was Zhang Zhenshan.

At this time, Wu Ye and Liu Gaoming were in a very heavy mood.

From the beginning to the present, Zhou Wenzhu didn't look at the two of them, which obviously showed an attitude, and even more showed the end of the two of them.

But no matter what, no one was willing to give up until the last moment, so at this time, Wu Ye and the others did not choose to admit their mistakes, but went to the yamen with the crowd in a daze.

It was also the performance of the two of them that made Zhou Wenzhu draw a cross for these two people in his heart, and it was hopeless.

Entering the gate of the yamen, it was lined up on the left and right and full of people, roughly estimated that there were more than 200 people, and more than half of the servants of the 100 households were lined up here.

Seeing Zhou Wenzhu leading the team in, a captain took the lead here and said: "See Lord Baihu!" ”

The servants followed and saluted, "See Lord Hundred Households!" ”

The sound is like a bullfight, and the momentum goes straight into the sky.

Zhou Wenzhu was alone in front, passing through the crowd without changing his face, followed by more than a dozen small flags, dressed in a silver-gray official uniform, he was full of majesty.

In any case, he is the head of the hundred households, and he is the boss of everyone here.

Stepping into the second gate, it was also full of heat, and in this courtyard that was lit on weekdays, nearly a hundred captains were standing in the middle.

Chen Xiaoting was naturally among them, his height of 1.8 meters made him a little conspicuous, and Zhou Wenzhu saw him without paying attention while walking.

"See Lord Hyakho!" All the lieutenants saluted.

At this time, it can't be like the errand officer, Zhou Wenzhu stopped and said to all the captains: "All of them are exempt!" ”

Only then did everyone get up, and then bowed slightly to show their respect for Zhou Wenzhu.

Zhou Wenzhu continued to move forward, and after passing the captains, he came to the third gate.

The third gate is built on a five-step stone step, which is more than a meter higher than the foundation of the courtyard where the lieutenants are located, and you can overlook the people in the courtyard from standing here.

Because of this, this place was designated as a place to point, Zhou Wenzhu had already climbed the stairs at this time, while Zhang Zhenshan and the others stopped at the bottom of the stone steps.

Zhou Wenzhu turned around and looked at his subordinates, the anger in his heart gradually hidden, and was replaced by coldness.

"During this period of time, the official was not there, and there was such a big mess in Guangde City...... You guys, you can do it! ”

As soon as he opened his mouth with such cold words, the hearts of everyone below couldn't help but sink, and it seemed that he would inevitably be scolded today.

Just when everyone was about to be scolded, they heard Zhou Wenzhu say sharply: "Wu Ye, Liu Gaoming...... Get out of here! ”

It is conceivable that Zhou Wenzhu's anger is conceivable, Wu Ye and Liu Gaoming are the positions of the general banner, only one level shorter than the hundred households, and scolding is rare on weekdays.

Trembling, Wu Ye and the others, dressed in earthy red four-clawed tiger-striped official uniforms, bent down and took a step forward.

At this time, Zhou Wenzhu didn't want to say more, let alone scold people here, so he took out a document from his arms and unfolded it in front of him: "The order of the thousand households in Yongxi ......"

As soon as they heard that it was an order from a thousand households, everyone present didn't dare to watch the play anymore, and they all bowed down and stood up.

"Wu Ye and Liu Gaoming neglected their duties and slacked off their lives...... Now as a punishment, these two people will be dismissed and investigated! ”

Zhou Wenzhu's voice fell, Wu Ye and the others knelt on the ground with a plop, and all the captains present exclaimed in surprise.

These are the two flag officers, and they were all dismissed...... The crime is only dereliction of duty, and there are more people who derelict their duties in the 100 households.

Although they were puzzled, no one was upset about Wu Ye and the others, and no one dared to resist the orders of the Thousand Households.

Only Zhang Zhenshan, who was standing on the side, cast a regretful look at Wu Ye and the others who were kneeling on the ground.

And Ban Xing'an, who was standing behind Zhang Zhenshan, showed an excited look in his eyes at this time, and Wu Ye and the two went down, and his opportunity came.

"Remove these two people from their official uniforms, and then put them in prison!" Zhou Wenzhu said coldly.

Immediately, a captain stepped forward and took off Wu Ye and Liu Gaoming's official hats, and at the same time took off their official uniforms.

One of the captains was Zheng Jian, looking at Wu Ye in front of him like a dead fish, the doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper.

How to do it...... Two more flag officers have fallen, and these two have survived so many storms in the past.

After Wu Ye and the others were escorted away, Zhou Wenzhu picked up the document and continued: "Chief Flag Officer Zhang Zhenshan encountered things calmly, dealt with them properly, made many achievements, and was transferred to the Thousands of Households!" ”

Good guy, when he heard this, Zhang Zhenshan's whole person was stunned, and then his heart was overwhelmed with joy.

"Humble command!" Zhang Zhenshan knelt down on one knee and said.

But Zhou Wenzhu didn't stop thinking, and continued to read: "Little Flag Officer Qu Zhenghao, Little Flag Officer Xu Chengwang, Little Flag Officer Ban Xing'an, promoted to the post of Chief Flag Officer according to the rules!" ”

"Humble command!" Qu Zhenghao and the three of them all knelt down.

Today is undoubtedly an earth-shattering day for Guangde Baihu.

Three chief flag officers, two were dismissed, one was transferred, and then three new chief flag officers were appointed, which can be described as a major blood change.

Everyone present was shocked, no one expected such a result.

When Qu Zhenghao and the others came from Lu Yang, they knew that they would be promoted, so the two were not very shocked.

Among the three of them, only Ban Xing'an got what he wanted, so he fell into ecstasy, and the smile on his face couldn't hide it.

As for the rest of the small flag officers, they were all full of loss at this time, and none of the three chief flag officers had their share, but they were picked by Qu Zhenghao and Xu Chengwang, two outsiders.

But this is the meaning of the Thousand Households, and the small flag officials can only slander in their hearts, but they will not show it in their faces.

At this time, Zhou Wenzhu was directly subordinate to the lieutenants of Xiaoqi, and some people looked at Zhou Wenzhu with expectant eyes at this time.

The appointment and dismissal of the general flag level can be arranged by 1,000 households, and the positions of small flag officials are all appointed and dismissed by 100 households.

Now that Liu Yucai and Ban Xing'an have vacated their positions, how could they not think about it.

Ban Xing'an's "big flag officer" is not extravagant, and they will definitely have to be transferred from the existing small flag officers, but after the transfer, there are still two vacancies for small flag officers.

This means that from among the direct lieutenants, two small flag officers can be produced immediately.

At this time, Zhou Wenzhu glanced at his subordinates, and then continued to read: "Xiaoqi Zhang Chengfa, transferred to the ...... of the lobby of one hundred households"

When Zhang Chengfa heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Humble and orderly!" ”

The meaning of being transferred to the lobby of 100 households means that Zhang Chengfa was promoted by half a level to become a banner officer, which made Wu Ming on the side a little disappointed.

Hearing this, the hearts of the lieutenants under the school were even more excited, and the next thing to announce was the candidate for the new small flag officer.

"Captain Gou Ming'an is conscientious and conscientious, and he has been promoted to a small flag officer!"

"Captain Chen Xiaoting is very talented and has been promoted to a small flag officer!"

Among the directly subordinate lieutenants, Gou Mingan had the urge to cry at this time, and he finally fulfilled his father's long-cherished wish and became an official of a hundred households.

Although the colleagues next to him were disappointed, their eyes were still full of congratulations when they looked at Gou Ming'an, and the identities between the two would be different from now on.

But at this time, the lieutenants realized that something was wrong, how could Gou Mingan be the only one among the two small flag officers appointed......

Who is Chen Xiaoting? After a little thought, everyone had an impression in their minds.

But in an instant, their hearts were full of unconvincing, why did Chen Xiaoting become a small flag official?

In terms of qualifications, most of the people here are better than him, but after a few small contributions, they can break the rules of the hundred households?

Especially the two most promising of the direct lieutenants, at this time, they really feel like they want to eat people.

I saw one of them bow down and say: "My lord, Chen Xiaoting has been in Jinyiwei for less than half a year, and his qualifications are not enough to serve the public, how can he be a small flag official, please be cautious, don't chill the hearts of the brothers in the yamen!" ”

Hearing this, all the lieutenants cheered for this benevolent brother in their hearts, but at the same time, they also sweated for him.

But in the crowd, Chen Xiaoting sweated for this benevolent brother, and this person has no hope of promotion in his life.

At this time, the person who spoke also woke up from his excitement, and secretly said that he was really blinded by lard, but at this time the words had already been spoken.

Sure enough, at this time, Zhou Wenzhu's face became ugly, and anger ignited again in his eyes.

Yang Yun ...... This is the meaning of Lord Qianhe, do you want to disobey? Zhou Wenzhu reprimanded.

"Go back!" Zhou Wenzhu roared angrily, which frightened Yang Yun as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

It's no wonder that Zhou Wenzhu is so angry, it's just that Wu Ming and these people are against him, and now even a lieutenant dares to question him, so how can he not be angry.

The captains present collectively lost their voices, and the authority of Zhou Wenzhu's hundred households was enough to suppress the audience.

And what shocked all the lieutenants even more was that the order to promote Chen Xiaoting to a small flag officer was actually given by Lord Qianhu himself.

What does this mean? Thinking of the previous rumors that Chen Xiaoting was valued by the Lord of Qianhu, the lieutenants really believed it now.

At this time, Gou Ming'an had already come to the front of the steps, and Chen Xiaoting, who was standing behind, was still walking forward.

After the joy of Fang Cai, although he was still happy in his heart, he had regained his composure on his face.

After coming to the front, sixteen-year-old Chen Xiaoting and twenty-eight-year-old Gou Ming'an stood together, and bowed deeply to Zhou Wenzhu on the steps and said: "Humble and orderly!" ”

In the rear, there was only Chen Xiaoting in the eyes of everyone.

The little flag officer who is only sixteen years old...... This almost changed the perception of the captains.

You must know that even if they fill vacancies and become small flag officials, most of them have to be vacant for three or five years before they can get real positions.

And Chen Xiaoting has only been in Jinyiwei for half a year, and he has been promoted to a small flag officer by himself, and he stands with the people around him who are more than ten or twenty years older than him.

It can be said that Chen Xiaoting at this time is a miracle for all the captains.

Although many people have been promoted today, and even a new small flag officer has been produced, Chen Xiaoting, the youngest, has taken away all the light.

At this time, standing between the earth-red official uniforms, Chen Xiaoting breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

In a place where everyone couldn't see, I only heard him mutter: "In less than half a year, the official was promoted to one level...... Barely passing! ”

The people have regarded him as a legend, and if they knew that he had such thoughts, they would not have drowned him with spittle.

On the steps, Zhou Wenzhu looked at the newly formed team below, but his heart was mixed.

Looking at Chen Xiaoting, who was standing in front of him, Zhou Wenzhu couldn't help but secretly say: "I think this is the biggest winner here!" ”

"In the year of the weak crown, there is already a tiger elephant!"
