Sima Liang (?-291), Ziyi, a native of Wen County, Hanoi (now Wen County, Henan), the fourth son of Emperor Xuan of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Shi of Emperor Jing of the Jin Dynasty, the half-brother of Sima Zhao, Emperor Wen of the Jin Dynasty, and Mrs. Mufu, one of the eight kings of the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eight Kings Rebellion.

Sima Liang was first named the Marquis of Long Live Pavilion, and later changed to the Marquis of Guangyang Township and Qiyang Bo, and successively served as the general of Dongzhong Lang, the general of the scattered cavalry, and the general of Zhenxi. After the establishment of the Western Jin Dynasty, he was first crowned King of Fufeng, and then renamed King Runan, and successively served as Sima Qi, General Fujun, General Wei, and Grandmaster. In the third year of Xianning (277), he was promoted to the general of Zhennan, the governor of Yuzhou and other important positions, and guarded one side.

Soon, he entered the court as a lieutenant, recorded a scholar, and served as the crown prince.

In the first year of Taixi (290), Emperor Wu of Jin was seriously ill and intended to entrust him to Sima Liang, but he did not succeed under Yang Jun's obstruction. In the first year of Yuankang (291), after Yang Jun was killed, Sima Liang entered the court as Dazai, and shared the government with Wei Qiang. Soon, Sima Wei killed Sima Liang.

After Sima Wei was killed by Jia Nanfeng, the empress of Emperor Hui of Jin, the imperial court issued an edict to rehabilitate Sima Liang and gave him the nickname Wencheng.

…… ……

When Sima Liang was young, he was upright, alert, talented, dignified, and handsome. In Cao Wei, he served as a free cavalry squire and was awarded the title of Long Live Pavilion Marquis. Later, he served as the general of Dongzhong Lang, and was knighted as the Marquis of Guangyang. In the second year of Ganlu (257), Sima Liang failed to conquer Zhuge in Shouchun and was removed from his official position.

Soon, he served as the general of the left of the school, and was appointed as a regular attendant of the scattered cavalry, and he went out to supervise the military of Yuzhou. After the establishment of the fifth-class title, he was renamed Qiyang Bo and transferred to the general of Zhenxi.

In the first year of Taishi (265), Sima Liang's nephew Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, ascended the throne by Chan, established the Western Jin Dynasty regime, named him the king of Fufeng County, 10,000 households, served as a horseman, increased the number of subordinates who joined the army, blessed the title of festival, and supervised the military of Yongliang in Guanzhong.

In the sixth year of Taishi (270), Hu Lie, the assassin of Qinzhou, was killed by the bald tree function, the leader of the bald tribe of the Xianbei tribe, and Sima Liang sent the general Liu Qi and the cavalry governor Jingyan to the rescue, but did not enter the army, so he was demoted to the general of Pingxi.

Liu Qi was convicted and beheaded. Sima Liang and the military secretary Cao Jian said that the fault of Jiedu was issued by my Sima Liang, and asked for Liu Qi to be exempted from the death penalty.

Emperor Wu of Jin issued an edict saying, "The siege of Gaoping is critical, considering that the strength of the city and Liu Qi is enough to save him, even if he cannot reach it quickly, he should try his best to advance." But he ran away and sat back and watched the failure, so Liu Qi was punished for a felony. Now, if the blame is not on Liu Qi, someone should bear the guilt. ”

Officials of relevant departments also dismissed Sima Liang from his official post. Soon, Sima Liang served as the general of the Fu Army.

In September of the sixth year of Taishi (270), Wu General Buxian came to surrender, and Emperor Wu of Jin ordered Sima Liang to accept Buxian's surrender as the commander of the military in the false festival. Soon he was added to the service of the servant.

In the first year of Xianning (275), Sima Liang took the 4,100 households in Fufeng Chiyang as the Tang Muyi of his mother's concubine Fu, and set up a family order servant, and later changed to Nanjun Zhijiang as the food yip.

Concubine Fu once suffered from a minor illness and was purified in Luoshui. The three Sima Liang brothers accompanied them, all of whom preached in festivals, and were prominent on the shore of Luoshui.

Emperor Wu of Jin ascended the Lingyun Platform to see this scene and said, "Concubine Fu can be said to be rich." ”

In the same year, he was promoted to General Wei and was appointed as a servant.

At that time, the clan was prosperous, and no one was in charge, so Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty took Sima Liang as the grandmaster, and his original official position was the same, so that he could discipline and observe, and if there was a clan that did not abide by the system of etiquette and righteousness, the small things were corrected by morality, and the big things were played at any time.

In the third year of Xianning (277 years), he was renamed the king of Runan, and served as the general of Zhennan, the governor of the military of Yuzhou, and the opening of the mansion, and the title of the holiday festival.

After Sima Liang arrived in the feudal country, he provided him with a chaser cart, a white ten-wheeled ox cart, and 500,000 yuan.

Soon, Sima Liang was recruited into the court to serve as the general of the Shizhong and Fujun, and concurrently served as the general of the rear army, commanding the champion, infantry, archery, Changshui and other military camps, supplying 500 soldiers and 100 horses. He was also promoted to the rank of lieutenant, Lu Shang Shushi, and concurrently served as the prince and prince, and his position as a servant was the same as before.

Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty was ill, Sima Liang was squeezed out by Yang Jun (the father of Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty Sima Yan Empress Yang Zhi), and Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty appointed Sima Liang as the servant, the great Sima, the fake Huang Yue, the governor of the capital, and the military governor of Yuzhou.

Feng his son Sima Yi (ya

g) for Xiyang Gong.

Before Sima Liang set off, Emperor Wu of Jin was critically ill and issued an edict to leave Sima Liang to take care of the aftermath.

…… ……

When Yang Jun heard about it, he asked for the edict from the central scrivener Hua Hui (hǎo), so he pressed down the edict and did not return it.

After the death of Emperor Wu of Jin, Sima Liang was afraid that Yang Jun would doubt himself, so he excused himself from being sick and did not enter the court, so he only recounted his sorrow outside the Great Sima Gate, and asked to blame himself for the funeral.

Yang Jun wanted to crusade against Sima Liang, and Sima Liang knew about this and asked the court commander He 勖 (xù) for a strategy. He Miao said, "Now that the court is all about you, why don't you crusade against him but fear that he will crusade against you?" ”

Someone persuaded Sima Liang to lead his people into the palace to abolish Yang Jun, but Sima Liang failed to use this strategy, but went to Xuchang in the starry night, so he could avoid disaster.

…… ……

In the first year of Yuankang (291), Yang Jun was killed, and Emperor Sima of Jin Hui issued an edict saying, "The great Sima and Sima Liang, the king of Runan, observed the holy way, neutralized and pure, and knew the political affairs. Appointing Sima Liang as Dazai and Lu Shangshushi, there is no need to enter the court, and he can wear a sword and wear shoes to the palace, increase the number of subordinates by ten, supply 1,000 soldiers and 100 knights, and share the government with the Taibao Guard. ”

Sima Liang has a dignified appearance and full of manliness, and when he entered and exited the palace, he was favored by Queen Jia Nanfeng (that ugly and jealous woman), so he teased him with words. However, the queen at this time is his grandchild, how can he get along with her? He sternly rejected her.

Jia Nanfeng held a grudge against this. Back then, she knew that a servant girl was pregnant with a child who was still the prince's husband, and executed the servant girl alive (for which she was also reprimanded by her father-in-law, Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of Jin), but what could she do to her grandfather and father-in-law? had to endure the anger of the moment, greedy to find an opportunity to retaliate against Sima Liang in the future.

…… ……

Sima Liang discussed rewarding Yang Jun's mistakes and mistakes, and wanted to win everyone's favor with it, but he was disappointed by everyone's expectations.

At that time, the fifth son of Emperor Wu of Jin, the king of Chu, Sima Wei, had meritorious deeds but was good at prestige, Sima Liang was afraid of him and wanted to seize his military power, Sima Wei was therefore resentful of him, in the same year (291), Sima Wei hooked up with the queen Jia Nanfeng, Jia Nanfeng issued an edict, falsely accusing Sima Liang and Wei Qian of having a plot to abolish the prince, and ordered the chief Shi Gongsun Hong and the crossbow general Li Zhao to surround Sima Liang at night with the army.

Li Long, the governor of the account, told him that there was an incident outside and asked for resistance, but Sima Liang did not listen.

After a while, the army of Sima Wei, the king of Chu, came to the wall and shouted, Sima Liang said in surprise, "I don't have two hearts for the court (but you have two hearts for the queen), why did you get to this point?" If there is an edict, can you show it to me? ”

Gongsun Hong and others disagreed and urged the soldiers to attack.

Changshi Liu Zhun said to Sima Liang, "Seeing this situation, it must be a traitor's plan, the handsome people in your house are like forests, and they can still resist as much as they can." ”

Sima Liang disagreed, so he was caught by Li Zhao, Sima Liang sighed, "My loyalty can be dissected to show the world, why are you so unreasonable, killing innocent people in vain?" ”

The weather was very hot at that time, and the soldiers asked Sima Liang to sit under the car, and the people took pity on him and fanned him for him. It will be noon, and no one will dare to kill.

Sima Wei ordered, "Whoever can kill Sima Liang will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of cloth." ”

So he was killed by the rebels, and thrown under the wall of the north gate, and his hair, ears, and nose were destroyed. These are some of his most handsome places, and the places that may destroy him are due to Jia Nanfeng's instructions.

Afterwards, Jia Nanfeng denied that she had issued an edict to arrest Sima Liang, I don't know how she prevaricated at that time, and in the end, she got a Sima Wei to act "overbearingly" and was killed.

The imperial court posthumously restored Sima Liang's title, provided him with Wenming sacrificial vessels and coffins in the East Garden, a court dress, three million money, three hundred pieces of cloth, and the funeral ceremony was the same as the past Anping dedication to the king Sima Fu, and the temple was furnished with the joy of bell chime.
