It's time for Sima Yan.

Sima Yan is half of the Three Kingdoms and half of the Jin Dynasty - he is the founding emperor of the Jin Kingdom.

However, this could not be said in that historical period, because you said that the founding emperor of Wei was pure Wei? Isn't the period of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty counted in history as the period of the Three Kingdoms? And Eastern Wu perished at the hands of the Jin State established by Sima Yan, and the demise of Wu really ended the history of the Three Kingdoms.
