Chapter 121: Resentment

Sima Yi has nine sons, in addition to the eldest son Sima Shi and the second son Sima Zhao, the most talented is the old five Langya King Sima Ling, he is the grandfather of the later Eastern Jin Dynasty Emperor Sima Rui, followed by the old seven wind king Sima Jun, can be called both civil and military, but unfortunately both of them are short-lived.

When Emperor Hui arrived, only Sima Gan, the king of the third plain, Sima Liang, the fourth king of Runan, Sima Wei, the king of the sixth Liang and Sima Lun, the king of the nine Zhao, all played a role in the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", and the king of Runan and Zhao were among the ranks of the "Eight Kings".

But Emperor Hui's four grandfathers are not good goods, and it can be said that they are not enough to succeed and more than to lose.

Let's start in order, starting with the emperor's third grandfather, Sima Gan, the king of the plains. If you open the evaluation of the King of the Plains, you will find these words: "There is a disease, and the nature is not constant". What does that mean? That means the old man is mentally ill, sometimes normal, sometimes morbid.

It's okay in normal times, but it's a bit wooden, and the history books praise him for being quite clear and quiet, simple in lust, and in favor of the characters, and he is also flattering, and there is no loss at the beginning; But when the old man became ill, he was completely confused, and someone visited him, ignored him, and let the house hang outside the door for a day; On a rainy day, he rushed outside to get drenched in the rain; His beloved concubine died, and the body was in a coffin, and the old man had to open the coffin every few days to look at it, and then rape the corpse until it was rotten.

Because of mental illness, Sima Gan, the king of the plains, never participated in the government affairs, so he was able to live alone in the sinister political environment of the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Gan lived until the fifth year of Emperor Yongjia of the Jin Dynasty, that is, in 311 AD, and died at the age of eighty.

Three months after his death, Luoyang fell, Emperor Huai of Jin became a prisoner of the Huns, and dozens of Jin dynasty princes, including his son Sima Yong, were buried alive by Shile.

One of the best princes in Sima's family is mentally ill, and from this ironic example, we feel that God really has bad intentions towards Sima.

The wheel of history will not stop, the torrent of the times is still rolling forward, and the tragedy of the Sima family will continue to be staged, and it will be performed for more than ten years.

Luoyang City

Palace

Xuanzheng Palace

Sima Liang, the king of Runan, is now proud of the spring breeze, and after killing Yang Jun, he got the opportunity to enter the court as an auxiliary government under the instruction of Empress Jia, and served as Dazai. The king of Runan was naturally overjoyed. But there is one person who is very angry, and this person is Sima Wei, the king of Chu.

Every time the king of Chu looked at the ugly face of the king of Runan and the fake tiger appearance of the Jia family above the court, his heart was full of resentment, and the king of Chu was unwilling, and he made so much effort in the coup, and the result was only to be appointed as a general and responsible for the security of Luoyang.

Empress Jia knew that the king of Chu would be resentful, but she had no choice, the king of Chu and the emperor were half-brothers, and according to blood, they should be the closest to the emperor. What's more, he made great contributions to pacifying the Yang Jun clan and should be reused. But this is what Jia Hou is worried about, even if he is a brother who is close to him, he must be divided into internal and external differences when facing power. What's more, just half-sibling?

Empress Jia knew that the King of Chu was a shrewd and capable person, coupled with the fact that the King of Chu was fierce and violent, and he was decisive and decisive, but he was not as pure and lovely as the emperor, if the King of Chu was powerful and the military power was in his hands, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not have some thoughts about the emperor's position, after all, people's hearts are unpredictable. Jia Hou also did this to be on the safe side.

What makes Empress Jia even more frightened is that every time she sees the King of Chu, she will consciously or unintentionally feel the knife-like eyes of the King of Chu, which seems to be able to kill people, and can cut the flesh of Empress Jia's body, Empress Jia is afraid, she is really afraid, and for a while she even couldn't sleep at night because of this matter.

After the king of Runan performed in the Xuanzheng Palace, everyone retreated, and the king of Chu was also ready to follow the flow of people to retreat from the dynasty, but at this time, Emperor Hui suddenly became interested, and even shouted to the king of Chu, and left the king of Chu, saying that he wanted to go to the back garden with the king of Chu to enjoy the flowers and play. Although the king of Chu was not happy in his heart, Emperor Hui was the emperor after all, and the emperor spoke, but he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to come to the back garden with Emperor Hui.

Emperor Hui played to the top of the head, and there happened to be a few geese flying overhead, and from time to time there were bursts of sad cries. Emperor Hui didn't know what was flying so high, so he asked the King of Chu what was flying in the sky?

No matter how fierce the King of Chu was, he couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, so he said, "Your Majesty, those are a few wild geese." ”

Emperor Hui asked the king of Chu again: "Why do geese fly in the sky?" ”

The king of Chu was speechless for a while, thinking in his heart, such a thing as a wild goose is born to fly, why do you need to ask why? But the emperor asked, and he couldn't help but say, the king of Chu thought for a long time, and said to Emperor Hui: "Your Majesty, geese are born to fly, just like fish, they are born to swim, just like wolves, they are born to eat meat!" ”

Emperor Hui listened to the explanation of the King of Chu and was very satisfied, looked up at the flying geese, pouted and said to the King of Chu: "Brother Huang, I don't like them to fly so high, you let them come down and play with me!" ”

Seeing this, the king of Chu had no choice but to let his chamberlain go and get his bow and arrows.

After a while, the bow and arrow of the king of Chu came, and the bow and arrow of the king of Chu were specially made, using Wuyi's black iron wood as the bow tire, rhinoceros horn as the bow horn, and the black wood bow with the sturgeon of Xiangshui as the glue, and a three-stone bow that was full of ten. Coupled with the fact that the King of Chu is skilled in bowing, it is naturally not a problem to shoot a few geese. It just so happened that a few geese flew by. The king of Chu used all his strength to shoot an arrow at the wild goose, only to see the arrow cluster break through the air, let out a screaming sound, and a wild goose fell to the ground in response.

Emperor Hui, who watched it, danced with his hands and kept shouting, like a naughty boy running like a wild goose that had been shot down.

However, all of a sudden, Emperor Hui stopped again and began to run back.

When the king of Chu and the other chamberlains were surprised, Emperor Hui had already run in front of the king of Chu, and he said breathlessly: "Let me have fun too, I will shoot a few geese down today, have a good time!" ”

The King of Chu frowned, and thought to himself: "I am a three-stone bow, can the emperor pull it away?" If you hurt yourself, who will be your fault then? However, at Emperor Hui's insistent request, the King of Chu handed the bow to Emperor Hui, and just said coldly: "Your Majesty must be careful, it will not be good if you hurt the dragon body." ”

Where could Emperor Hui hear that this was the king of Chu warning himself, and he put all his mind on shooting wild geese. I saw Emperor Hui go to pull the black wooden bow with great interest, but he couldn't pull it open, tried several times, Emperor Hui's face was flushed, and he still didn't pull it open. Emperor Hui got angry, threw the black wooden bow to the ground, sat on the ground, kicked his legs and shouted: "This bow King Chu can pull it away, why can't I pull it away?" Does this bow despise me? Someone's coming! Someone's coming! Burn this bow to me! ”

The surrounding chamberlains are a little embarrassed, the king of Chu is skilled in bows and horses, and he uses his own treasure bow, isn't it normal for you to not be able to pull it away, Your Majesty, you have to compare it with a dead object like this bow?

Seeing that Emperor Hui was a little annoyed, an attendant picked up the bow, walked to the king of Chu, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, Your Majesty means this, you have also seen it, or you should take the bow away and hide it first, Your Majesty is out of sight and out of mind, and you may forget it after a while, what do you think, Your Highness?" ”

King Chu Tie blushed, his hand clenched into a fist, clenched tightly, and said to the servant: "This is the crime of bullying the king!" Your Majesty shouted that you burned it, but you still didn't do it? Do you want to let this king do it himself? ”

The chamberlain looked at the king of Chu with a blue face, and didn't dare to answer, so he hurriedly beckoned someone to burn the bow.

The king of Chu looked at Emperor Hui and had an indescribable feeling in his heart, seeing that Emperor Hui was sitting on the ground and couldn't get up, and kept splashing and rolling, he couldn't be indifferent, so he had to step forward and pull Emperor Hui up from the ground. The King of Chu had great strength, and Emperor Hui's arm was pulled by the King of Chu, so he couldn't help but shout: "Brother Huang, it's so strong, you are about to pull my arm apart!" ”

The king of Chu also ignored Emperor Hui, and said that he still had official business to deal with, and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he resigned.

The king of Chu is gone, but what happened just now, but was quietly looked at by Empress Jia from behind, Empress Jia looked at the figure of King Chu in the distance, and secretly thought in his heart: King Chu is good, this can be endured, that is your treasure bow? But if you're kind to yourself, you're wrong, hehe.

Empress Jia then called over a few chamberlains and instructed: You go and spread rumors among the courtiers immediately, saying that the king of Chu said that the geese in the sky were phoenixes and Emperor Hui were dragons, and let such phoenixes play with dragons, which was intended to fool the emperor. Also, it is said that when the king of Chu pulled the emperor up, he almost broke the emperor's arm, and the emperor screamed in pain. It must be said that there is a nose and eyes, and the sound is colorful. Do you understand?

Rumors are always true, and soon these rumors spread more and more outrageously under the deliberate polishing of well-intentioned people, and in the end, they directly became rumors that the king of Chu despised the emperor and coveted the throne.
