Chapter five hundred and twentieth fifth official business

Therefore, when Wang Dengku was in Beijing, he could make friends with powerful people. He would know in advance any changes in the court.

Even the servants he sent to make friends with eunuchs in the Gunpowder Department under the military service, which was mediated by the ministers in the court.

However, what Wang Dengku did not expect was that the result was about to be completed. Unexpectedly, the eunuch in the Gunpowder Department suddenly died suddenly, which made Wang Dengku feel like a thorn in his throat and a ray of light on his back.

Wang Dengku, who was over 50 years old, had eaten more salt than others. He was in the cunning rabbit's three holes and felt something was wrong. Why did the eunuch in the Gunpowder Department suddenly died suddenly at this time without any illness or disaster?

There is probably something else in this. So Wang Dengku found Yang Sichang from the Ministry of War overnight.

That's right, it was Yang Sichang, who proposed the strategy of "four straights and six corners, ten sides to suppress the peasant army". This guy is somewhat unworthy of his position, and Sun Chuanting was almost killed by him.

Fortunately, although Yang Sichang received a lot of benefits from Wang Dengku, this person still has principles. No matter what is involved in the secrets of the court and the country, it will be disclosed.

Wang Dengku visited the door and was scolded by Yang Sichang. He said that he sent his subordinates to make friends with the eunuchs in the Gunpowder Department, and his heart was punished. This alone would be enough for you to be doomed.

Wang Dengku was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Mr. Yang, help me, but I don't know the importance of it. Making friends with the eunuch of the Gunpowder Department is a private matter, and there is no secret action. Lord Yang helps me. This is the 20,000 taels of silver bills that the villain respects, so please accept it with a smile."

Yang Sichang was furious and cursed Wang Dengku and drove him out of the mansion. However, Yang Sichang did not return the 20,000 taels of silver notes that Wang Dengku gave.

This made Wang Dengku very angry and used people's money to eliminate disasters. Yang Sichang received money and became a hand-off manager, but he ignored this matter.

After all, he was a businessman, and Wang Dengku didn't understand the officialdom. In fact, Yang Sichang did this as a sign of opening the Internet. However, when Wang Dengku was kicked out of the mansion, Yang Sichang told him that he wanted to survive and went to Wu Danan from the Ministry of Rites.

An old official fox like Yang Sichang, he knew what to fart when Wang Dengku sticks out his butt. Moreover, Yang Sichang has long guessed that Wang Dengku wanted to spy on the gunpowder department's firearm secret.

Such a case is a death. Yang Sichang didn't want to be so bad. He knew that Wang Dengku's case would undoubtedly die if it was exposed. Therefore, he pretended to be furious and drove Wang Dengku out of the mansion.

He did not return the 20,000 taels of silver notes from Wang Dengku, and he turned a blind eye. The disaster was in the east, and Yang Sichang and Wu Danan from the Ministry of Rites had always been at odds. He also knew that Wu Danan was an insatiable person.

Wang Dengku went to ask Wu Danan for help, and Wu Danan must have no gift for not helping him.

Wang Dengku cursed and left Yang Sichang's mansion. He went to Wu Danan's home of the Ministry of Rites. When Wu Danan heard that it was Wang Caishen, he welcomed him warmly.

However, when Wang Dengku sat down in his mansion and told the matter up, Wu Danan's face changed instantly.

"Shopkeeper Wang, what do you mean is that your servant made friends with the eunuch in the Gunpowder Department. Now this eunuch in the church has died suddenly for no reason?"

Wang Dengku nodded in horror: "That's right, I'm always worried. Lord Wu, what kind of news did you hear in the court? Why did this eunuch in the court suddenly die for no reason? It's not that the people from the court have already set their sights on me. But why didn't the court arrest me?"

Wu Danan stood up and walked back and forth a few steps behind his back: "This is really hard to say. Even if the court makes any big moves, I'm afraid it's hard to know about this kind of thing. However, it's logical that the people of the court have already set their sights on you, and they should have searched your home and exterminated the clan."

Wang Dengku let go of his heart: "That's not a coincidence. The eunuch who was in charge did die suddenly due to an acute illness, right?"

Wu Danan shook his head again: "Not necessarily, judging from my years of experience in the court, it is unlikely that I will die suddenly. Or, you are targeted by the Jinyiwei."

When Wang Dengku heard the Jinyiwei, his head buzzed, and he was immediately frightened and knelt down with a thud: "Sir Wu, help me. This is ten thousand taels of silver notes, which is not worthy of respect. Please tell me, Mr. Wu, you must show me a way out for the villain."

It is easy to do things with money. Wu Danan has always known that Wang Dengku made a big deal. He hummed a few times: "You don't have to be too nervous. If there is any movement in the court, we can't hide it from us. If it is the affairs of the Jinyiwei, we will be powerless. However, it's not like the Jinyiwei is suspicious of you now."

Wang Dengku knelt on the ground and was overjoyed. He seemed to have ushered in the dawn of hope: "Mr. Wu, what do you say?"

Wu Danan sneered: "If the Jinyiwei had targeted you, how could you survive until now? But it is hard to say such a thing. Maybe the Jinyiwei has other intentions, maybe the Jinyiwei doesn't want to touch you at all. However, the servant who comes into contact with the Gunpowder Department must not leave a living, do you know."

Wang Dengku immediately nodded like a dog: "The villain knows, thank you Lord Wu for help. If there is any trouble in the court, please inform the villain in time. The villain will never dare to forget the great kindness of Lord Wu."

Wu Danan glanced at the silver notes on the table and snorted softly: "Don't worry, what's the news in the court? Do I don't know about me, the Minister of Rites?"

When he came out of Wu Danan's mansion, Wang Dengku was sneaky like a thief. He did not rush to go home, but went to one of his own medicine shops. When he came out, he kicked the pack of medicine in his arms, which was twice as good as a thief.

When I returned to the mansion, everything outside the mansion was as usual. The two bamboo lanterns at the gate were brightly lit, and there were also noises of servants in the yard.

This made Wang Dengku feel relieved for half. After he returned home, the servants opened the door happily: "Master, you are back."

Wang Dengku said "Hmm": "When I went out, who has ever come to my family?"

The servant hurriedly said, "Master, you are not long after you go out, the Jinyiwei from the middle of the capital came to our house and said he wanted to visit you, Master."

When Wang Dengku heard that it was the Jinyiwei, his heart skipped a beat, and he was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.

Wang Dengku only felt his throat dry and asked stammeringly: "Who, Jin, Jin, Jin Yiwei?"

The servants didn't see it yet, but just said happily: "My master is really in the capital, and even the Jinyiwei visited him in person. The Jinyiwei is very polite. Seeing that you are not at home, you say you are visiting him again another day."
