Chapter 314

The visitor was an eunuch from the palace.

But in this mess of the Han Dynasty, the Emperor had no real power in his hands!

After the Rebellion of the Ten Eunuchs, the eunuchs also appeared extremely lonely.

Forced by their livelihood.

They naturally would no longer rely on the side of the Emperor.

Instead, they turned to defect to the real person in power, that is, the current Prime Minister, Old Dong, who was about to be promoted to Grand Tutor.

Although Fu Wan was timid, his brain still turned relatively fast.

The moment he saw this eunuch.

Fu Wan understood that the imperial edict the visitor was carrying must be the meaning of Old Dong's side.

Before Fu Wan could respond, the eunuch said on his own:

"Regular Cavalier Attendant Fu Wan, loyal and patriotic, has made contributions to the country; starting from today, you are promoted to Grand Master of Palace Leisure!"

"Bang!"

Like a huge pie from heaven.

It smashed onto Fu Wan's head without any warning!

Grand Master of Palace Leisure, what does this mean?

It means that Fu Wan was promoted three levels directly, entering the ranks of high-ranking officials of the imperial court!

Although... Grand Master of Palace Leisure was still an idle position with nothing to do.

But it couldn't stand the high rank of this official position!

In an instant.

Fu Wan stood frozen on the spot, not knowing what to say in return.

"Grand Master of Palace Leisure, why don't you hurry up and receive the edict, and thank the Emperor for his grace?"

The eunuch responsible for conveying the edict frowned, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with Fu Wan's attitude.

Seeing this, Fu Wan hurriedly stuffed a silver ingot into the eunuch's pocket, and the latter nodded with satisfaction.

Although, in the late Han period, silver was not the main settlement method.

Copper coins were.

But silver ingots were things that had already existed, and they were considered valuable items, with a value far exceeding copper coins.

As for gold...

Fu Wan was not a rich person; where would he get gold to reward the eunuch who conveyed the edict before him?

After sending away the eunuch who conveyed the edict.

The joy on Fu Wan's face could no longer be covered!

Being promoted three levels, this was not a treatment that an ordinary person could have.

However.

Compared to Fu Wan.

His daughter Fu Shou was not as ecstatic.

Fu Wan's wife, Princess Yang'an, Liu Hua, had already passed away several years ago.

Fu Wan's several sons were also small officials like shrimp in the court, not worth mentioning.

Therefore, in the Fu family, it was Fu Shou, the youngest daughter, who saw things most clearly.

I saw Fu Shou showing worry and saying:

"Father, this Dong Zhuo is not a good person."

"And that Li Wenyou and Gu Linzhi are both leaders in the world today."

"He didn't promote you earlier, and he didn't promote you later."

"But suddenly promoted you three levels at this juncture, how could there be no plot?"

Regarding what Fu Shou said, Fu Wan waved his hand with a smile and said:

"Dong Zhuo perhaps realized my talent."

"Wants to value me."

Hearing these shameless words from Fu Wan, Fu Shou rolled her eyes helplessly.

What kind of character her own father had, Fu Shou, as a daughter, understood better than anyone else.

Talent?

Perhaps Fu Wan really had it, but it definitely wasn't much!

There were countless capable people under Dong Zhuo.

Especially after Gu Yi came, the number of civil and military talents under Dong Zhuo increased exponentially, and there was no shortage of people at all.

Under such circumstances, why would Dong Zhuo suddenly value you, Fu Wan, this little shrimp?

"Little sister, you must be suspicious."

"Father, one way or another, is also the brother-in-law of the late Emperor."

(Brother-in-law means the brother of the wife in the Han Dynasty, referring to the fact that the wife of Fu Wan was the elder sister of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, Princess Yang'an, Liu Hua.)

"It is reasonable for Dong Zhuo to want to win over Father."

In sharp contrast to Fu Shou's worry.

His several older brothers all held an attitude that it was only natural for their father Fu Wan to be suddenly promoted three levels.

"Forget it, forget it, I can't talk to you guys either."

"Anyway, we will soon know what medicine Dong Zhuo is selling in his gourd."

Fu Shou was very helpless.

These several older brothers of hers were all good-for-nothings.

Even far worse than their father Fu Wan!

If it weren't for the legacy left by their mother, these older brothers would probably not even be able to get an official position.

Just when Fu Shou was wondering why Dong Zhuo would suddenly promote her father Fu Wan.

At the entrance of the Fu residence.

Suddenly welcomed visitors again.

The visitor was none other than Dong Bai.

The drunkard's heart is not in the cup, but in the landscape.

Whether Fu Wan lived or died was completely unimportant.

But Dong Bai intended to take Fu Shou into the residence and become Gu Yi's new concubine.
