Wang Fu (eunuch)

Wang Fu (Chinese: 王甫; died 31 May 179 CE[1]) was a powerful eunuch in the court of Emperor Ling of Han.

So he drew up a list of four powerful eunuchs to be executed: Guan Ba, Su Kang, Cao Jie, and Wang Fu.

But the list was discovered by another eunuch, Zhu Yu, resulting in a complete foiling of the plot and the subsequent death of Dou Wu.

Later, in 172, when Empress Dowager Dou Miao died, an unknown vandal wrote on the palace door: All that is under the heaven is in upheaval.

But thereafter, Wang Fu and his confederates were constantly concerned that if Empress Song, wife of Emperor Ling, gained more power at court, she would avenge the death of her aunt, the prince's consort.
