Chapter 672: The Eastern Jin Dynasty Changed the Sky (Part II)

Early the next morning, the news of the death of Sima Shao, the Son of Heaven, quickly spread all over the world, except for a few people who knew the inside story, most of the nobles and ordinary people were stunned!

No one expected that after only two years on the throne, Sima Shao, who had always been known as a wise and martial artist, would follow in the footsteps of his father Emperor Yuan and drive west. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Although the official gave the cause of death, however, some of the discussions still faintly pointed to the family.

After all, the family and the Son of Heaven have long been on the same page because of the New Deal, which is a well-known fact!

No one doubted the family's energy, they were able to trap Sima Rui in the palace and control the government, and today they naturally have the opportunity to secretly kill a son of heaven without leaving any traces.

As soon as the sky was bright, the officials of the middle and middle grades of the court changed into plain clothes and went to the imperial city to pay respects to the coffin of the Son of Heaven.

At the scene, only the Sima clan, who was really grieving, was crying bitterly, while the rest of the family only showed grief on their faces.

But no one dared to stand up and accuse the family, and the Sima clan did not dare either. As soon as Sima Shao died, the power of the clan that had just been revived suffered a heavy blow, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty once again returned to the situation controlled by the family, and the royal family was completely reduced to a puppet and foil.

It is a pity that Sima Shao's death and the abolition of the new policy are regrettable, but it is not a good thing from this point of view that the internal disputes within the Eastern Jin Dynasty will end and thus twist into a rope against the Yan State.

It lasted until noon, and when the worship was over, the ministers and ministers gathered in the hall next to it one after another. On the jade steps of the head of the hall, the throne symbolizing the supreme power of the Great Jin Dynasty is empty.

Yu Liang swept his eyes and saw that everyone was there, so he coughed lightly and said loudly: "The first emperor is in the prime of life, but he suddenly drove away, which is really shocking and sad!" But the dead are gone, and the living are gone! We should inherit the last wish of the previous emperor and revive the Great Jin. ”

Gu He echoed casually: "Yes, what the Lord of the Zhongshu Ling said is very true, although the first emperor is gone, but there is still a family, in the future, we will do our best to assist the new emperor, and die for the great Jin Dynasty." ”

"That's, that's!" Everyone hurriedly followed. Sima Shao's death, except for the suspicion of the clan and the only inferior scholar from the Bian Hu, almost no one cares, everyone cares about Sima Shao's posthumous affairs, and cares about the next new round of interest division.

Yu Liang continued: "Since the first emperor has been driven, he should enter the second temple according to the rites, and please discuss it in court." ”

Lu Ye took it and said in a deep voice: "Thinking about Guoyuan is clear, Ren Xian Zhiyuan is clear, the total collection is different, Rongyi is beautiful, internal governance and reason are clear, and intelligence is clear, so Ye thinks that it should be clear!" And the first emperor was majestic, the law was rectified, the Guangting court lived strictly, and everyone was solemn, and those who were sued, and those who held things were respectful, and they should enter the Su Zong! ”

To be honest, the temple number and nickname given by Lu Ye are very compatible with Sima Shao, it seems that the family still acts in a measured manner, and is not carried away by hatred.

The emperor's temple number and nickname were very strict before the Western Han Dynasty.

Taking the Western Han Dynasty as an example, there were 12 emperors in total, and there was only one ancestor and four ancestors, which shows that not all emperors are eligible to enter the temple.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation has changed, although there are also evil names, such as the two emperors of Huan Ling, but the temple number has been popularized, and all the emperors have been given the temple number, and most of them are based on praise.

Therefore, all the ministers and princes in the palace listened to Lu Ye's opinions, and they all claimed to be good.

Yu Liang nodded when he heard this: "Since you have no objections, the first emperor should be the emperor of Xiaoming, the temple name is Suzong, and we should prepare for the funeral as a minister." However, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the prince should be established as the emperor according to the edict! ”

"The prince is too young to govern, and before he is in power, the queen mother should listen to the government!"

In the second year of Taining, in mid-May, a news that shocked the world spread from Jianye to all directions.

Sima Shao, who had only been on the throne for only two years, died of a sudden illness, and his son Sima Yan was passed on to his posthumous edict.

In view of Sima Yan's young age and inability to govern, he was temporarily assisted by his relatives Yu Liang, Empress Dowager Yu Wenjun, Lu Ye, Xi Jian, and Wang Dao.

When the news of Sima Shao's death reached Huainan, it was like a pebble thrown into the lake, causing ripples one after another. The three towns of Huainan, which were originally ready to move, could no longer hold back their inner ambitions, and Guo Zusu colluded together to unite troops to go south to Jiangdong.

On this day, Guo Mo and Zu Yue secretly came to Xuyi to visit Su Jun and held a final consultation on the matter of raising troops.

After a period of silence in the room, Zu Yue was the first to speak: "The two of you, after thinking twice, you think that the plan to go south and capture Jiangdong is very feasible!" If this plan succeeds, it is very likely that the three of us will jump out of the dead place of Huainan and avoid facing the threat of the Yan army! ”

Zu Yue's words resonated with Su Jun and Guo Mo, who couldn't understand how much pressure the three of them were facing, and they lived in fear almost every day, always worried that Yan Jun would suddenly go south. If there is an opportunity to leave Huainan and go to the rich and safe inland of Jiangdong, I believe that none of the three will refuse.

"Yes...... But for what reason should we raise our army? Guo Mo asked.

"Qingjun side! Just raise troops in the name of Qingjun's side! ”

"This time raising troops is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Huainan, and now King Yan is raising troops to the west, trapped in the Western Regions, and has no time to look south for the time being. As long as we successfully capture Jianye and seize Jiangdong as the foundation, even if King Yan returns from the western expedition in the future, what can I do? ”

"On the contrary, if you miss the opportunity in front of you, in the future, the three towns of Huainan will either be annexed by the Yan State, or they will be cut off by the imperial court one by one, and they will have to retire with an idle job!"

Speaking of this, Su Jun got up and said: "And today's son has just ascended the throne, and he is young and ignorant, and people inside and outside the court are panicking, only Jingzhou Tao Kan is a strong enemy." After we wait for the three families to raise troops, we should quickly cross the Yangtze River and go straight to Jianye, as long as we capture Jianye and control the emperor and ministers in our hands, the three of us can coerce the Son of Heaven to order not to obey! ”

"At that time, there will only be a holy decree to deal with Tao Kan!"

Coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world! Shocked by this, Zu Yue and Guo Mo's eyes lit up, and they couldn't hold it anymore, and they clamored to cross the river and go south to break Jianye.

Seeing that Zu and Guo had no objections, Su Jun said finally: "Ben will officially announce: the southward plan has officially begun!" The army is divided into three routes, commanded by you and my brothers, and they began to cross the river three days later. ”

When the news of the Huainan rebellion came back to Jianye, the court was in an uproar!

But no one took the three towns of Huainan seriously, and Yu Liang, Wang Dao, Xi Jian, etc. methodically mobilized troops and horses to quell the rebellion.

This time is different from the past, when Wang Dun was in turmoil, the family and the court were not of the same mind, otherwise Wang Dun would not have easily won Jianye.

Now that Sima Shao is dead, there is no longer a gap between the court and the family, and in the face of a united family, Huainan chaos is just a disease of ringworm in the eyes of everyone.

Soon the imperial court issued an edict appointing the general of Zhengxi, the assassin of Jingzhou Shi Taokan and the assassin of Jiangzhou Ying Zhan as the governor of the expedition and responsible for suppressing the rebellion in Huainan.

At the same time, Yu Liang, Wang Dao, Xi Jian, and Bian Hu continued to mobilize troops to Jianye to strengthen the defense everywhere.

……

The Huainan Rebellion broke out, and the news was quickly learned by Yan Guo, and the cabinet did not dare to slack off and immediately convened an emergency meeting.

At present, King Yan has not returned from the expedition, and such important matters are naturally decided by the cabinet.

"You've all read the latest military reports, right? Where should I go from here? After everyone had read the military report, Pei Wei asked loudly.

"What else is there to say about this? When taking advantage of the Jiangdong chaos, he immediately raised troops to the south, even if he couldn't take Jiangdong, he had to recover Huainan, and he couldn't let Huainan go down! Mo Han said slowly in a deep voice.

"Well, Shirong's words are very good, Huainan is the barrier of Jiangdong, once it is occupied by my Yan country, Jiangdong will not be worried!"

Seeing that everyone agreed with the strategy of going south, Pei Wei immediately ordered Mao Bao and Cao Hong in the name of the cabinet, asking them to send troops from Henan and Xu Prefectures respectively, and with the assistance of the naval division, they forcibly crossed the Huai River to recover Huainan.

"Where has the king gone?"

At this time, Gao Zhan suddenly asked about Wei Shuo's whereabouts, and now in order to confuse the outside world, only the cabinet knows that Wei Shuo has returned to the east.

"Some time ago, I came to report that the king had arrived in Gaochang, and now he has almost entered the boundary of Liangzhou. It is estimated that it will be at least a month before it is possible to return to Luoyang. ”

"It's going to take so long, and now the situation is changing three times a day, and I don't know if the king can catch up." (To be continued.) )
