When Sima Yijun arrived at Wuqiu, Wang Ling waited by the water, saying: "If I am guilty, the public can recall half a piece of bamboo slip, why bother to come in person?" ”

Sima Yi said: "Because you are not a simple guest! ”

After that, he ordered the general to lead 600 men and horses to send Wang Ling to Luoyang.

Wang Ling asked Sima Yi for the nails on the coffin, wanting to test whether Sima Yi wanted to kill him, so Sima Yi ordered his subordinates to find them and give them to him. In May, Wang Ling went to Xiangcheng, despaired, and died of poison.

Sima Yi marched into Shouchun, and those who participated in Wang Ling's conspiracy all surrendered.

Sima Yi deduced that everything involved would be exterminated.

Send people to dig up the graves of Wang Ling and Ling Huyu, dissect the corpses for three days in a nearby city, and then burn their seals and official clothes and bury them in the soil. forced Cao Biao, the king of Chu, to commit suicide. And all the princes of Wei were arrested, placed in the city of Ye (yè), and ordered a division to supervise them, and they were not allowed to associate with each other.

Cao Fangce ordered Sima Yi to be the prime minister, the prince of Anping County, and one grandson and one brother to be the liehou, 50,000 households before and after, and 19 marquis. Sima Yi resigned from the position of the prime minister and the county prince.

Sima Yi knew very well in his heart that killing Cao Shuang's party could not clear the court's suspicion of him.

Soon, I saw this sign: Empress Dowager Guo gave Sima Yi a concubine named Jingshu, which was actually an undercover agent, and once there was a disturbance in Xiangguo's Mansion, Jingshu went to inform the Empress Dowager that Sima Yi was in shackles, and this woman could not be killed casually.

Soon, Jingshu was pregnant and in labor, and she should be given a proliferative drug, but Sima Yi used the medicine in the opposite way, causing Jingshu to die of dystocia, and Sima Yi finally removed the thorn at the bottom of the nest. The woman died in childbirth, and the Empress Dowager Guo couldn't say anything yet.

In film and television dramas, Jingshu is said to have been given to Sima Yi by Cao Pi, but it is just for the needs of the plot, in fact, Cao Pishi does not need to send Sima Yi an undercover agent at all.

Sima Yi at that time, what was not all? Only the "orphans and widows" of Cao Fang's time need such a low-level peep.

…… ……

On September 7, 251, Sima Yi died in Luoyang at the age of seventy-three.

In September of that year, Sima Yi was buried in Shouyang Mountain, Heyin, Zhen Wenzhen, posthumously sealed Xiangguo, county duke, Sima Fu adhering to his last wish, resigned from the county duke and special ceremony, and buried the funeral simply, as three articles of care, to collect the time, no tree or grave, no Ming device.

The nickname was later changed to Wenxuan. However, the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" and the "Book of Jin • Emperor Wen" both record the nickname as "Xuanwen", so the latter shall prevail. In November of the same year, a priest asked for the souls of the deceased heroes to be placed in the temple of Wei Taizu to enjoy the sacrifices, and the ranking was in order of the size of the official positions held during his lifetime. Taifu Sima Yi was ranked first because of his high position.

After Sima Zhao was crowned the queen of Jin, he posthumously crowned Sima Yi as the king of Xuan; In the second year of Xianxi (265), Sima Zhao's son Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of Jin, was honored by Wei Chan and gave Sima Yi the title of Emperor Xuan, calling his mausoleum the plateau mausoleum and the temple name Gaozu.

…… ……

Sima Yi's main achievements:

In addition to the military aspect, Sima Yi advised Emperor Wei Ming on the occasion of the major repair of the palace, and after the death of Emperor Wei Ming, he asked for the repair of the palace, carved the manpower of playthings, and spared farming, so that the world was happy.

In terms of identifying talents, Sima Yi promoted Deng Ai, Wang Ji, Zhou Tai and other talents from the poor family.

Economically, Sima Yi Xingtuntian in Shangtai, Jingzhao, Tianshui, and Annan Xing smelted iron, penetrated into a national canal, built a slope in Jin, and made Yongliang enough to eat, and had spare power to supply Guanzhong. Later, he built a large field in Huaibei and crossed the wide trough canal, which not only planted the national strength, but also laid the foundation for the future unification of the Chinese Palace.

Sima Yi has made great achievements in popularizing the tuntian, especially the military tun cause. About the twenty-third or fourth year of Jian'an, Sima Yi was transformed from Sima Yi, the prime minister, and suggested to Cao Cao: "In the past, Chen Mou was headed by food. Today, there are more than 200,000 people who do not plough, and they are not funded by the country. Although the armor is not rolled, it is advisable to cultivate and guard. ”

Cao Cao did it.

For a while, the Wei State "engaged in agriculture and accumulated grain, and the country was abundant." (Book of Jin and Emperor Xuan)

Cao Cao died only two years after adopting this suggestion, and it was of course difficult to regularize the military camp in such a short period of time, and to carry it out on a large scale. The main officials in charge of the military tun - Duzhi Zhonglang General, Duzhi Lieutenant, Duzhi Du Lieutenant and other officials were all set up in the early Huang period (220-226), indicating that the military tun was formalized in the Cao Pi period.

Cao Wei's military tun was widely implemented, but the main bases were set up in the border garrison areas, especially in the military confrontation zone with Wu and Shu. The creation of the two major military bases in the opposing areas of Cao Wei and Wu and Shu is related to Sima Yi.

…… ……

Li Shimin wrote a historical commentary for the Book of Jin and Emperor Xuan, pointing out the contradictions or imbalances in Sima Yi's personality, military, politics and other aspects.

He Qufei analyzed Sima Yi's patience, bearing, and ability to use troops, and did not fight Zhuge Liang head-on, but a clever strategy to consume the enemy's army:

"Zhong Da Ti Qin, Yong's strong pawns, should not be old and old teachers, is it in vain! It will be all over one win also. However, Kong Ming is dead, Shu Shi is returned, and Zhong Da is not exhaustively chasing after him, covering Kong Ming's death, the soldiers are still full, and the army has not changed, Shu Dao is blocked and easy to ambush, and it is suspected that his pseudo-retreat will tempt me.

"To make Kong Mingzhi immortal, and the disadvantages are to hold each other, then Zhongda's ambition will be successful. Or it is said that Zhongda's power is treacherous, which is not enough to be the temperance of Kong Ming, and this rotten Confucian and scripture talk is not enough to be the Tao of the knower." commented on his "control of his soldiers, surprising adaptation, dying like a god, invincible, although Cao Gong was not caught" (see "Dr. He's Preparation • Sima Zhongda's Treatise").

When Sima Yi was alive, his prestige in the Wei State was quite high, even if he did not (Guà

Qiu Jian and Wen Qin crusaded against Sima Shi after his death, and they still praised Sima Yi in the text, such as "the late prime minister Guoyi, Kuang Fu Wei family, and loyalty in history". In the history books, it is said that it makes "the world happy" and "the world is happy".

In the early years of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan achieved the rule of Taikang with "infinite people in the world" during the Taikang period, and people still admired Sima Yi who promoted the unification of the Three Kingdoms. Even Sima 遹 (yù) was rumored to be like Sima Yi, and he was able to "be famous in the world" at that time.

…… ……

Sima Yi's reputation was ruined after the Yongjia disaster. The cannibalism of his unscrupulous descendants brought many catastrophes, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the south was controlled by the family for a long time, and Sima Yi's status in the hearts of the people gradually declined.

The Jin Dynasty crossed to the south, and the situation was similar to that of the Shu Han Dynasty, and the call for the orthodoxy of the Shu Han was increasing; After the fall of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the situation became more obvious, and by the Sui and Tang dynasties, folk storytelling and opera were flourishing; The "Book of Jin" of the Tang Dynasty was not encouraged to be imitated from the position of the emperor. After the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the Ming Dynasty, the false image of Sima Yi such as "the empty city plan, the fire extinguished the upper valley, and the wood carving Wei Dudu was discouraged" was widely spread among the people.
