After Liu Yin entered Luoyang, the blow to the direct forces of the Sima family was very severe, and almost all the kings of Sima were deprived of the throne and imprisoned in Jinyong City. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

This is not Liu Yin's ruthlessness, but a normal way to deal with it, if Liu Yin is really ruthless, it is likely that he will take bloody and violent means to completely eradicate the Sima family.

Fortunately, the attitude towards those who surrendered in this era is relatively tolerant, for example, Liu Chan and Sun Hao can still enjoy better treatment when they surrender, if the time goes back a few decades and then enters the era of the Sixteen Kingdoms when the world is in turmoil, at that time, human life is like a mustard, and when the royal family and princes fall, it is not necessarily much better than the common people.

Liu Yin is as good as a stream, so naturally he will not kill the people of the Sima family, but it is almost an indisputable thing to deprive the throne and cut the military power, and the people of the Sima family can already be grateful to Dade if they are alive, how can they have any more luxury?

After the most backbone of the remnants of the former Jin Dynasty was eradicated, all that remained were some civil and military generals who were forced to surrender due to the situation, most of these people fell with the wind, and they may not be absolutely loyal to the Sima clan.

If you still expect these people to stand up and restore Sima Jin, it is simply a joke. What's more, they also know that at the beginning of the fall, it is the time when the level of trust is the lowest, the power in their hands is either deprived or reduced, and the generals who used to hold the power of the army have now become the commanders of the light poles.

What's more, now that the subordinates of the former Jin Dynasty are already a plate of loose sand, even if Zhong Hui has the heart to clean up the mess, he no longer has the ability to knead this plate of loose sand together.

Wang Mai and Zhong Yong can visit the former Jin Dynasty ministers, and only those who have a close relationship with them can do it, but even if the relationship is iron, once it involves such a major event as the life of the family, the vast majority of people cannot give them an answer immediately, most of the replies are vague and vague, and some people directly shirk it on the spot.

But fortunately, these people are still a little righteous, even if they don't participate, they don't have the intention of betraying Wang Mai and Zhong Yong, after all, now Zhong Hui is also a celebrity in the Shu Han Dynasty, and most people have an attitude of protecting themselves with a clear mind, and one more thing is better than one thing.

Wang Mai and Zhong Yong found almost nothing, and in desperation, they had to return to Zhonghui.

Zhong Hui's face was inevitably a little unsightly, originally Xiahou Xian's side was going well, which made him a little overjoyed, but when he arrived at the side of the former Jin forces who had hoped greatly, he was closed.

However, this is not at all possible to stop Zhong Hui's ambitions, once he starts, Zhong Hui can't stop at all now, he secretly thought to himself, it seems that if he wants to succeed, it is not enough to rely on his own strength, but fortunately, now with Jiang Wei's trust, Zhong Hui is ready to think more about this aspect.

The current Shu State is already a two-point situation, and Liu Yin's strong rise has changed the situation that Shu is one person in power since Zhuge Liang. When Zhuge Liang was alive, he was the prime minister and concurrently served as the governor of Pingbei, the marquis of Wuxiang, the pastor of Lingyizhou, and the governor of internal and external affairs, in short, all the military and political powers were monopolized, as his successors Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, Jiang Wei and others, although no one held the position of prime minister, but whether it was in charge of the government in the name of the general or the great Sima, he was the de facto prime minister of Shu.

Jiang Wei has been a general for more than 20 years, and for more than 20 years, despite Huang Hao's power, despite the joint impeachment of Zhuge Zhan Zhou and others, these have not shaken Jiang Wei's position, even if Shu is facing a situation of life and death, Jiang Wei still holds the position of a general, and strives to resist the invasion of Wei and Wu on the front line.

But now the situation has undergone subversive changes, Liu Yin relied on the merit of destroying the Jin Dynasty, and jumped to become the great Sima, standing side by side with the general Jiang Wei, and has the potential to override Jiang Wei's head. Jiang Wei, who was unwilling to be subservient, must be anxious in his heart at this moment.

At that time, when he had just entered Luoyang, Zhong Hui had given Jiang Wei an idea to take the opportunity to get rid of Liu Yin, but Jiang Wei was worried at the time and did not start for a long time, and the result was the arrival of Liu Chen, the king of the Northland, which made Jiang Wei miss that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Later, the entire Shu Han court moved its capital to Luoyang, and Liu Yin's status also rose, and he was promoted to the rank of Great Sima, and now Jiang Wei wants to move him again, it is already difficult to have another chance.

It is difficult for a country to tolerate two lords, and it is difficult for one dynasty to tolerate two ministers, Jiang Wei has been in charge for many years, and the power is shared by others, and the sense of loss in his heart can be imagined, if he fails in the choice of the heir to the throne this time, I am afraid that he will really say goodbye to the Shu Han regime.

This sense of crisis is not only Jiang Wei, Zhong Hui is even more, the current Zhong Hui, to put it bluntly, is an insect attached to Jiang Wei's big tree, as long as the big tree, his insect can climb higher, if the big tree falls, the insects that fall to the ground are left to be trampled on.

So Jiang Wei is anxious, Zhong Hui is more anxious than him, but the starting point of the two is the same, Jiang Wei is thinking about how to help Liu Sui succeed to the throne, and Zhong Hui is thinking about how to use this opportunity to launch a rebellion again and take his fate back into his own hands.

After seeing Jiang Wei, Zhong Hui first asked: "I heard that the general entered the palace yesterday to face the saint, I don't know how His Majesty's condition is?" ”

Jiang Wei's face was solemn, he shook his head gently, and said, "Your Majesty's body is getting worse and worse, and my condition is getting more and more serious, I'm afraid I won't last long." ”

Zhong Hui said: "Did the general propose the matter of the heir to His Majesty?" "Zhong Hui is most concerned about this issue.

"I mentioned it." Jiang Weidao.

"Then how did Your Majesty answer?" Zhong Hui asked.

"Your Majesty hesitated again and again, wanting to say goodbye, but in the end he did not give a positive answer, only said that he would consider one or two more things, and announce it in a few days in front of all the ministers." Jiang Weidao.

Zhong Hui also frowned, and said: "It seems that Your Majesty is still hesitating, according to His Majesty's favor for His Royal Highness Sixth in the past, there should be no problem in appointing His Royal Highness Sixth as the crown prince, but now he has been hesitating, I am afraid that there will be variables in this." ”
