[Why did Sima Yan pass the throne to his foolish son Sima Zhong? #History#Jin Dynasty]

"Sima Yan is to blame for the chaos in the Western Jin Dynasty."

"Sima Yan passed the throne to his foolish son Sima Zhong without considering the consequences, and chose Jia Nanfeng, an ambitious, power-hungry, and ruthless queen for him. How could the Jin Dynasty not be in chaos?"

"Letting a fool be the emperor is equivalent to sending a puppet to the throne?"

["Why did Emperor Wu of Jin Sima Yan pass the throne to his foolish son Sima Zhong?"]

["Because not only did the Sima family get the throne improperly, but even the Sima family There was also a problem with the internal bloodline inheritance. ”]

【“When Sima Yi kicked Cao Shuang to the ground and took power, he originally planned to pass his position to his eldest son Sima Shi, because this eldest son’s ability was indeed beyond doubt.”]

【“It’s just that Sima Yi may have sworn by the Luo River, but went back on his word and didn’t take his oath seriously, and the retribution came too quickly.”]

【“As Sima Yi’s most valued eldest son, Sima Shi couldn’t even give birth to a son.”]

【“Seeing that his eldest brother had no successor, Sima Shi, the second younger brother, Ma Zhao adopted his son Sima You to his brother to continue the family line. ”】

【“The retribution of the Sima family has just begun. Sima Yi lived a long life and died at the age of 72. But not long after his death, his most trusted eldest son Sima Shi also died at the age of 48. ”】

“Those who do not keep their oaths should be punished!”

“All the people in the Sima family deserve to die!”

“Everyone does what God sees.”

【“After the father dies, the son inherits. After Sima Shi dies, Sima You should take the throne and hold the power.”

【“However, the problem is, At that time, Sima You was only 10 years old, and the Sima family had only halfway through their usurpation of power. It was a critical moment, and the 10-year-old Sima You was obviously unable to calm down the important officials of the Cao Wei clan. "】

【"So Sima Zhao became the third ruler of the Sima family."】

【"When Sima Zhao first came to power, he promised that when Sima You was older, he would return the throne to him."】

"Can you believe such words? In the face of power, there are countless cases of fathers, sons and brothers turning against each other. "

"Father said before that I would be made the prince instead." Li Shimin recalled the past.

"Dad said that my eldest brother was in poor health and asked me to encourage him." Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu remembered what his father Zhu Di said before he became emperor.

【“From the perspective of modern people, it’s OK for Sima Zhao to pass his throne to Sima Yan or Sima You. After all, they are both his blood and his biological sons, so it’s not a loss.”】

【“However, after Sima Zhao took over, he still passed the throne to Sima Yan.”】

【“Because the ancient times are different from the modern times, the ancient clan system was very strict. It clearly stated that after a son is adopted, he has no relationship with you and can no longer be called your biological son.”】

“That’s true.”

“The clan system has always been strict, If he is adopted, he is no longer your own son. Otherwise, what is the difference between adopting him and not adopting him? "

【"At this point, the matter of the second generation of the Sima family is over."】

【"After Sima Zhao died, Sima Yan took over the throne of King Jin, and later learned from the Cao family's past and proclaimed himself emperor to establish the Jin Dynasty."】

"Learn from my Cao family? Why don't you Sima family fight for your own country? You are just a villain who can only plot to usurp the throne!"

"The Cao family usurped the Han Dynasty, and my Sima family usurped the Cao Wei Dynasty. It's the same."

In different planes, the attitudes of the Cao family and the Sima family are different.

【“When it comes to Sima Yan, the problem arises again.”】

【“Because Sima Yan’s son, the future Emperor Hui of Jin, Sima Zhong, is a mentally retarded child who is the most in history.”】

【“Why not eat meat porridge? It can be said that it echoes the current per capita deposit of 500,000 yuan said by some experts, and the experts who call for the renting out of spare houses.”】

【“Even the ministers of that year saw this problem.”】

【“The Book of Jin evaluates Sima Zhong as a saintly person.”】

【“To put it nicely, it means that this child is always simple, just like when he was just born.”】

【“To put it bluntly, his IQ has never improved.”】

【“Sima Yan himself knew this problem well. He also felt that his son might not be able to hold the throne in the future.”】

【“So he indulged the power of his relatives and gave great power to the princes of the Sima family, hoping that he could protect his foolish son in the future.”】

“Protect? Do you want your foolish son to die faster?” Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, said: “Whether it is a relative or a prince, the greater the power in their hands, the greater their ambition. It would be fine to change to a wise emperor, so that they can check and balance each other. But the emperor on the throne is a fool! Who can listen to him? Who can convince him?”

【“Sima Yan has more than one son, why can't he choose one?A normal child?"]

【"Don't forget what we said at the beginning. The power of the Sima family was not legitimate. This problem also exists within the Sima family."]

【"The problem is that the Jin Dynasty should belong to Sima Shi's lineage."]

【"You, Sima Zhao, learned from your father Sima Yi. You ignored the oath and refused to return the throne to Sima You."]

【"The reason at that time was to establish the eldest son as the legitimate heir. I want to pass my position to my eldest son."]

【"In other words, the power inheritance of Sima Zhao's lineage is based on the patriarchal bloodline. Once Sima Yan did not establish Sima Zhong, but instead established other sons, it changed from establishing the legitimate heir to establishing the virtuous one."]

【"If it is to establish the virtuous one, then I am sorry. Sima You, the son of Sima Shi, is famous for his intelligence. Sima Yi praised him when he was alive. ”]

【“Once Sima Yan gave up Sima Zhong, Sima You would be the most suitable candidate. It also meant that the throne of the Jin Dynasty would be returned to Sima Shi’s lineage. The problem was clear at this point.”

Sima Yi in a certain dimension closed his eyes and said painfully: “Several generations of my Sima family have exchanged for the world with eternal infamy. Just because of a little selfishness, something that could have been avoided ruined the great country! How could I, Sima Yi, give birth to such a stupid descendant?”

【“In order to keep the throne in his own lineage, Sima Yan would rather choose his stupid son Sima Zhong to take over, and would rather re-establish the feudal system of the early Western Han Dynasty. He deceived himself and gambled with the future of a country.”

【“As a result, the Eight Kings Rebellion broke out only one year after Sima Yan’s death.”

【“For the sake of power, the Sima family did everything from beginning to end.”

【“And it ended in the most terrible way. ”】

“It’s full of drama and makes people feel ridiculous. If Sima Jia had passed the throne to a smart person, the Eight Princes Rebellion and the Five Barbarians Rebellion could have been avoided.”

“The Sima family is a sinner for all ages!”

[Don’t swear randomly.]

[Same as the Northern Song Dynasty.]

[If the emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty saw your comments, they would cry. Compared with the Jin Dynasty, what virtue and ability did they have?]

Song Dynasty Emperor: Our Song Dynasty is much better than the Jin Dynasty. I dare not say anything else, but at least there is no Eight Princes Rebellion.
