Chapter 432 Wu Mansion: You damn ghost, you dare to come here if you don’t want to live?



Wu Mansion, back door.

The residence of Wu Jingzhi, the Minister of Justice.

Cui Sheng banged on the door several times...

"Who is it?"

"Do you understand the rules? Why are you trying to use the backdoor in broad daylight?"

The doorman Liu Er was drinking some wine and walked to the back door impatiently.

It makes sense. Generally, people who use the back door are there to deliver food or something like that. Usually, he knows about it, and the locations are basically fixed.

There are quite a few people who often come to the mansion to give gifts, but none of them use the back door.

However, Liu Er hoped that those who gave gifts would go through the back door so that he could make some money from it.

Liu Er, the gatekeeper at the main gate, was extremely envious, as they had bought several properties in the capital and had several concubines.

In the past, Liu Er had a great benefactor, but now it’s no longer possible. I’m afraid he doesn’t dare to come…

Besides, I’ve never been here in broad daylight!

"I'm your grandpa!"

Cui Sheng did not restrain himself at all and cursed loudly.

He was very familiar with this gate, and the gatehouse was also Liu Er's personal territory.

What's more, that bastard Wu Jingzhi is working honestly in the Ministry of Justice.

Wu Jingzhi, who dared not to be dishonest and was good at playing both sides and trying to smooth things over, was extremely lucky because he was only convicted of a minor crime of being stupid and incompetent in the case of Nangong Xue's ex-husband and was punished with a one-year salary deduction.

The main thing is that during Liu Xian's reign, most of the officials in the capital were like this: slaves and horses. After they were all dealt with, there was no one left to do any work.

Therefore, Wu Jingzhi retained his position as the Minister of Justice, but he also became much more restrained and diligent, and no longer dared to go to the Jiaofangsi to drink during working hours.

Cui Sheng knew it best, so he came over boldly.

Hearing this.

Liu Er frowned, shook his head, and slapped his head immediately, but when he listened carefully, he realized that it was really his grandfather.

Without saying a word, he quickly opened the door.

"Liu Er, you are really cool. You are drunk even in broad daylight."

"My Lord, please stop making fun of me. Ever since you got into trouble, I've been living a life worse than a dog's. My concubine even ran off with a strange man."

Liu Er had a bitter look on his face and bowed to show his respect.

"Isn't this old man here?"

"It's time to change my words. I'm no longer the Prime Minister. It would be disgraceful if others heard this."

Cui Sheng said this, but he was happy in his heart and wished everyone would continue to call him Prime Minister.

Liu Er grinned, "You are joking. In my heart, you will always be the Prime Minister, and my second parent."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I'm safe now. I'll let you enjoy the good life with me in the future."

As he spoke, Cui Sheng took out five hundred taels of silver from his pocket and handed it over.

When Liu Er saw the five hundred taels, he was overjoyed. It was true that a lean camel was bigger than a horse. He could buy another concubine. He subconsciously prayed in his heart that the gentleman in front of him would come often.

It would be great if all the concubines in this courtyard could be humiliated.

Then I’ll come more often!

Liu Er nodded and bowed as he put the silver bills into his arms, feeling at ease taking the money.

At this time, he also saw the exquisite sandalwood box in Cui Sheng's hand. He knew the things inside should be good things, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Master, you are not really here to give my master a gift, are you?"

Liu Er knew that Cui Sheng had been released and was serving as a sixth-rank official in the Jiaofang Bureau, so it was not impossible for him to curry favor with their masters.

Cui Sheng pouted and said, "Damn it, why would I bother to curry favor with that bastard?"

"Yes, that's right. The Prime Minister is always the master. Otherwise, how could he be released? He will have to go up sooner or later."

Cui Sheng grinned and said, "That's right, you are a wise guy!"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and get down to business."

"Yes, I understand!"

"Sir, please sit here in the gatehouse for a while. I will come to call you when you are ready."

Liu Er responded, then turned and ran away.

Cui Sheng didn't say much, he just went into the lobby and sat down. It was obviously a familiar routine and he didn't need to say anything more.

Liu Er didn't walk far. There was basically no one in the side yard behind the back door. It was where people gathered for miscellaneous tasks such as the firewood room.

Of course, servants also do rough work like washing clothes here.

In the fairly spacious courtyard, two old maids were washing clothes.

Seeing Liu Er coming, the two old maids quickly stood up.

"Second Master!"

Liu Er didn't waste any words and whispered, "That gentleman is here, your good days are coming again."

The two old maids were as happy as if they had seen the God of Wealth, "Thank you, Second Master."

"Okay, go report to Sixth Auntie, and go clean up the room."

"yes."

The two old maids responded and went their separate ways.

They seem to have great understanding!

This is what Cui Sheng did every time he came to meet the Sixth Concubine. Naturally, Liu Er would not treat the two old maids badly every time, and it only cost a few taels of silver, so the two old maids were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

Cui Sheng was a wealthy man, and he always gave hundreds of taels each time. This time he gave 500 taels directly because he was indeed not as strong as before, and he wanted to feel at ease.

He used to be the prime minister, so even if Wu Jingzhi knew that he was having an affair with his sixth concubine, he wouldn't dare to do anything.

However, there is a big gap between the two of them now, and the other person is a second-rank official.

However, after all, Wu Jingzhi's sixth concubine was the most popular prostitute in a brothel in the capital.

If Cui Sheng had not needed Wu Jingzhi's help in order to overthrow the former right prime minister, he would never have given up on him.
