Standing on the stage was Gu Yanzhang, who had changed into an official uniform.

Hearing such a sound, the rest of the people stopped, but two eunuchs looked shocked.

Although the people did not call their surnames, Gu Yanzhang was not the only one who could be called an official position here, but everyone knew that the momentum at this time was all for him.

The officials of the Metropolitan Water Supervision Standing on the side were accustomed to it, and they gathered into the ears of the two newly arrived eunuchs and explained to them: "Gu Gonggong piles and piles are all hands-on, day and night with the people below, and the daily rewards of silver, rice, and fields are all his initiatives, and he is also sympathetic, so he is very supportive. ”

This official was not surprised, and the other two eunuchs had to reluctantly show a calm and calm look, to show that as an angel, they were also people who had seen the world.

But the surface is one thing, and the heart is another.

Seeing this, the two couldn't help but quietly glance at each other again, and each exchanged suspicion with their eyes.

One blinked his eyes, trying to blink a few yawns from the days of hurrying, so sleepy that he only yawned a few times, and was blinking a little information to the other party from the tears and watery eyes—was it really my short-sightedness? In fact, it is very easy to win the hearts of the people by presiding over such a major water conservancy matter, rather than committing public anger?

The other person was just a little yellow door who used to serve "Queen Yang" in the Qinghua Palace, and at this time he hurriedly received the dispatch, and after remembering, he went out of the palace for the first time, and he had never done an errand, he didn't know everything, he was really panicked, and at this time his eyes were still pasted with two pieces of eye feces accumulated on fire, so he naturally couldn't blink such a beautiful autumn wave, so he had to reply to a blank face of "I really don't know".

The eyebrows and eyes of these two people naturally did not pay attention to it.

But Gu Yanzhang's face was inconvenient, and he stretched out his hand and gestured.

The officers standing at the front of the queue blew their whistles at the same time, while the other two carried trays and went up to the stage, and when they reached the front of several eunuchs.

On each tray were bowls of water and wine, which had been poured out, and everyone took them in turn and held them in their hands.

The shrill whistles sounded in unison, and the sound in the field gradually stopped.

Gu Yanzhang took the wine bowl last, looked up and looked down, and said loudly: "The Queen Mother is wise and Your Majesty is Shengming, although you can't experience it in person, you can understand the hard work of Er's and others!" Today's canal is completed, it all depends on your hard work, as said that day, one day this matter may be completed, the court will not hesitate to reward! ”

He pointed to several eunuchs on the side and said, "You angels have received the holy order, and this time you are here to reward you!" ”

When he said this, he suddenly turned his head to a queue and said, "Yang Xi of the Gengzi room of the first team of A is here?" ”

There were tens of thousands of people here, and those standing behind him naturally couldn't hear his voice clearly.

Everyone in that group looked back, and many people shouted, "Yang Xi! ”

A short time later, a man in his thirties ran out of the queue with his hands and feet.

There were already messengers waiting on the sidelines, ready to lead him to the stage.

Gu Yanzhang already said: "Li Chongzuo, Huang Lin, Zhang Da, and Chen Xing are the four people who are there?" ”

He didn't use a manuscript, he didn't need to mention a point, he just called out empty words, as if he knew all the names very well, and remembered them very well.

Gu Yanzhang read a name at the top, and someone followed with a name below.

As one team after another, one by one, their names were called, and they went to the stage, and soon, the originally empty stage was stuffed to the brim.

The wooden platform was square, and there were people standing in a row on all sides, facing the rest of the queues in the school yard.

Gu Yanzhang gave an order, and the servants went to the big wooden box placed in the four corners, took the key, and opened the box.

It was full of strings of copper coins, dark and gloomy, but when you look at the eyes of the people below, all of them are bright.

Gu Yanzhang has already said: "In the camp, according to the strength of all of you, the score has been scored, and there are one hundred and four people on the stage at the moment, all of whom have the highest scores, and the official has been ordered by the palace and the Zhongshu, and will give everyone eight yuan for each person, this time several angels are here, please send it to the angels!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was already jubilation under his head.

Several eunuchs were invited, and the first was also explained, and at this time, they hurriedly followed the messengers who led the way in front of the leader, and one by one they gave the people eight pieces of money and hung them in their hands.

One hundred and four people, even if there were a few eunuchs, it took a while to complete the distribution.

Many of the people who stood on the stage to receive the silver were in tears and red eyes and received the heavy silver money.

When have the eunuchs in the palace seen such a scene, they have all straightened their waists that have been bowed for many years.

Gu Yanzhang waited for a while, and when he saw that no one was left behind, he replied: "In this camp, everyone who contributes well will be rewarded, and tonight is a group banquet, please drink this cup to reward yourself!" ”

As he spoke, he raised the wine bowl in his hand, first to the people and eunuchs above, and then to the people below to raise the wine once, and finally drank it all in a big gulp, and smashed the wine bowl to the ground.

As if receiving some signal, everyone on and off the stage raised the wine bowl in their hands and drank the wine with joy.

At this time, the Empress Dowager's mourning period had passed early, and the ban on wine had been lifted, but the wine in the camp was naturally not a good wine, almost a jar of wine poured into a large bucket of water.

However, the current situation is that there is no need for spirits, but a bowl of tasteless water and wine, and the people are also drunk.

A large bowl of rice was passed to the back, and there were cooking cakes, whole pieces of meat, and vegetables, and the smell of meat alone drew everyone's mouth.

Everyone sat on the ground, gulping vegetables and meat and eating cooking cakes, and another messenger carried several buckets and walked in the queue, adding soup and vegetables to everyone, and there was even steamed white rice.

While everyone was eating, the officials of the water prison led several angels on the stage into the camp's house.

There was a feast set up in it, and it was waiting for them to enter.

A eunuch couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you see Gu Gongshi?" ”

The bystander said: "He'll be back later." ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Gu Yanzhang to hurriedly enter the table, he simply exchanged a few words with several eunuchs, and when the wine had passed the second round, he apologized and left.

Although it has only been half a day since he entered the camp, the impression that everyone here is busy has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the eunuchs, and he does not feel strange, but someone asked the official who was accompanying him: "Obviously, this Gu has the highest official position, how can he seem to be the most familiar with the lower person?" ”

An official said with a smile: "We have a small deal on our hands, and Gu is in charge of official affairs, which is to coordinate the camp here, he goes to the people's residences and construction sites every day, eats and lives with everyone, no matter how they live, eat, eat, or die, they can manage everything, and they rank everyone every day. ”

The eunuch who asked him nodded again and again, but seeing that the official didn't seem to be the slightest bit jealous, he only felt strange, and when the banquet was dispersed, he asked people to inquire again.
