Chapter 313 Row table

Inside the hall, a piece of plain. Standing at the head of the group of officials, Wang Yan’s body is rickety, his beard and hair are all white, and he no longer has the brilliance of the wind gods of the past. Because he was recovering at home, he escaped the epidemic by chance. Although some people died in the mansion, he was lucky compared to Shouchun City and even other nobles in Huainan County.

However, he escaped, but others were not so lucky. Now the minister who can go to the palace is short of a half. If Sima Rui and Liang Feng had not sent medical officers to administer medicine to avoid the epidemic, it might have developed into something else.

It’s a pity that none of this has saved the emperor’s life. The palace in Shouchun was too small, and there were too many concubines and concubines. The disease came off guard, like a sickle sweeping the palace. Sima Tan was the first batch of people who contracted the disease. Rao was the imperial physician desperately to treat him, but he failed to save his life.

Even because of the epidemic, no one dared to visit the palace while the Ninth Five-Year Lord was still alive. I don’t know if it was because he was unconscious or deliberately, Sima Tan did not leave a legacy. There is no prince, and no lonely minister, leaving this thin coffin empty.

Only two years after he proclaimed himself emperor, he died of illness and loneliness on his imperial couch, without even leaving his heirs. Is this punishing him for the sin of moving his capital?

More than one person thinks so.

Jingling King Sima Zhu said loudly: “Southland is not suitable for building a capital at all! It is better to establish a new emperor quickly and move back to Luoyang!”

Now that the Huns and the Puppet Han moved their capital to Chang’an, Luoyang is no longer so dangerous, and Liangfeng, the state of Bingzhou, is guarding it. If you move back, it might be safer than Shouchun. So as soon as the voice fell, someone responded immediately.

Liu Zhun said angrily: “The first emperor’s bones are not cold, so how can we move back to Luoyang? The Shouchun transport canal four links, there are heavy dangers, and Jing and Xu ring sides, which can defend against powerful enemies. We should stick to Shouchun and try again. !”

Before the emperor passed away, he rushed back to Shouchun, Liu Zhun didn’t dare to miss the funeral. His forces are all in Shouchun, and he finally got an important position in the army, how could he let go so easily? If you return to Luoyang, it is only Liang Zixi’s power that will make others unable to get involved.

“Stay in Huainan and wait for the epidemic to rages? And General Liu Da has never defeated the rebellious army.” Someone sneered and retorted.

“If it weren’t for the rear civil commotion, how could I fail?!” Liu Zhun shouted.

However, this volume did not suppress the criticism from others. In the hall, countless voices buzzed. The clan who wants to return to the north, the generals who support their own strength, and the noble relatives who come from high-ranking families, all are vying for this vacant throne. Without a minister of life, it means that the dragons have no leader. The dispute between the state and the reserve has always been bloody, and now there is no one in power. Doesn’t it intensify the contradiction to the extreme?

If it is the past, Wang Yan should weigh the pros and cons, choose a party to seek refuge, and ensure that he can continue to enjoy the glory. But today, he didn’t say a word, just staring at the coffin of the temple.

That little emperor was not actually the real Mingjun. Good strategy, narrow-minded, and fearful of enemies. But no matter how many problems there are, it is far better than Huidi. What’s more, there is the thought of reopening Zhiping. But now, the emperor who was not full of weak crowns was lying in the coffin, while himself, a person who was dying for a long time, was standing on the temple.

God may never have cared for Dajin, but what is the use of absorbing the power of a lifetime?

“Li Chu is not a trivial matter, does the master have a good opinion?” A sharp voice awakened him from his trance.

Wang Yanmu looked over. A pair of eyes, like arrows, nailed him. Greed, fear, thirst, all kinds of emotions, it’s hard to say.

He took a breath: “The Huainan plague has not disappeared, and Shouchun alone is difficult to support. The plan now is to cross the river.”

Cross the river, enter the land of Wu, let Sima Rui take care of him, and then establish a new king. This is the safest way. Other options are just letting people fight for power, just like floating duckweed.

This is his rare words from the bottom of his heart. However, those gazes that looked at him suddenly changed. I don’t know anyone who hummed softly: “As expected of Wang Clan Langya, the same branch.”

Who doesn’t know that the people in power next to Sima Rui come from the Langya Wang clan? This suggestion of crossing the river is afraid to give authority to both hands.

Wang Yan did not answer. In his capacity, no more words are allowed.

The cry of the mourning lasted for three days, and the officials did not discuss any feasible countermeasures. Wang Yan was always old, and went home early after the ceremony. Anyway, the new emperor has not made a decision and cannot hold the succession ceremony. He, the Taifu, is just like a clay tire and wood plastic, and it is useless.

However, until midnight, there was a commotion outside the door. Immediately afterwards, a large number of soldiers in armor rushed in. Wang Yan was dragged up from the couch. His clothes were disheveled and his hair was disheveled. How could he have the demeanor of the world’s No. 1 celebrity?

“You are… from the Zuowei Army… King Jingling sent you?” Even though his old eyes were dim, Wang Yan knew the young nobleman before him. This is the rebellion of the emperor’s pro-military! King Jingling is afraid that he has hooked up with his relatives and used his troops to seek rebellion!

The young man sneered: “The Taifu conspired with General Liu to harm the emperor. The general will be ordered to take the head of the Taifu item.”

They want to kill themselves and Liu Zhun and get the right to make the decision of Li Chu. At this moment, Wang Yan was not afraid, but felt absolutely absurd. How many mutinies he has survived, starting from the rebellion of the Queen of Jia, he wandered among the alternate power ministers, rising higher and higher, until he became an extremely human minister. Unexpectedly, in this cramped city of Shouchun, he was held by a palace guard.

Are they not afraid of King Langya sending troops to attack Shouchun? !

However, in the next instant, Wang Yan suddenly wanted to understand one thing. Why didn’t King Langya rush to Shouchun immediately after the emperor died? Even if Sima Rui had the right, he was a foreign minister and could not decide who would succeed him. But what if something goes wrong in the city of Shouchun? Isn’t it justified to send troops to quell the chaos, and then support a new monarch?

It was he who recommended Wang Dun to be the governor of Yangzhou! Director Wang also came to visit him several times and had a good chat with him. Did these two elder brothers ignore his life? !

No one can tell him the answer. The palace guard raised the long knife in his hand, and the blade was shining with silver light in the bright moonlight. This was the last sight he saw.

That night, Wang Yan died, and Liu Zhun led his soldiers to fight against the Zuojun, but was lost to his death. On the second day, in front of the palace, the younger brother of Emperor Sima Tan, the younger Yuzhang king Sima Duan, was promoted to the crown prince by King Jingling and others, and succeeded.

However, before the Emperor Daxing was buried, the soldiers and horses of Yangzhou and the remnants of Liu Zhun surrounded Shouchun together. The leader is Yangzhou Governor Wang Dun!

“The King of Jingling, together with the guards of the palace, killed the Taifu and the generals, usurped the throne, and is unforgivable! Conquer Shouchun with me and destroy the rebellious party!”

Under this order, the prelude to the Shouchun offensive and defensive battle was completely unveiled. Ten days later, Yangzhou soldiers and horses broke Shouchun, killed King Jingling, and slaughtered Guiqi. What Shi Le had never done, and what the gangsters had never done, was finally done in the hands of Wang Dun.

However, he failed to stop the new Emperor Sima Duan. Escorted by Situ Xinying, Sima Duan fled to Xuzhou along the river.

Soon Sima Rui came to Shouchun in person, took the coffin of the first emperor, and buried him in a ceremonial manner. Then Sima Yan, the new capital king who was less than ten years old, ascended the throne and moved his capital to build Ye!

※

He rushed all the way from Pingyang to Chang’an, without encountering ambush, and without chasing soldiers, and entered the palace wall safely, before Liu Yao was relieved.

After entering Yongzhou, he arrived at his own site. He doesn’t have to worry every day, lest someone try to usurp the throne again. However, after a large number of Hun aristocrats entered Chang’an, Liu Yao felt trouble. After all, he is not the blood of the first emperor, let alone the position of the Xiongnu Dadanyu. However, the Xiongnu commanding soldiers, indispensable for the title. If this power is handed over to others, maybe something will happen in the future.

Reluctantly, Liu Yao began to look for the Xiongnu’s noble surname, intending to consolidate his position through marriage. Before he flexed his hands and feet, a piece of surprising news came to Guanzhong.

First was the Huainan epidemic, and Shi Le retired. Subsequently, Emperor Jin died of an epidemic, and the Shouchun civil strife, King Jingling elected the new emperor to the throne. Then King Langya attacked Shouchun and moved the capital to build Ye… One after another, the news was simply dizzying. Before he could get over, Liu Yao discovered that a Jin Guoxing platform appeared in the hinterland of Yongzhou.

After Simamo died, his remnants have been active in Yongzhou and once entered Qinzhou. Before Shi Le was ordered to retaliate, he fought many battles with them. Now that the emperor died violently, there was news that the new capital was established as the emperor. The minds of this group of people became active. Sima Yan was the son of Sima Yan, the king of Wu Xiao, and the grandson of Emperor Wu. But Sima Yan is more than just this son.

It just so happened that in Yongzhou, there was his own brother, King Sima Ye of Qin. This son was originally adopted by King Sima Kam of Qin Xian. Because the pseudo-Han attacked Yongzhou, he was also forced to leave his hometown and wanted to go to Shouchun. However, it was a coincidence that before the trip, Shouchun was in chaos, and the new emperor succeeded.

However, the throne of the emperor always has to be passed down. Since Sima Yan can be promoted to the emperor, why can’t Sima Ye? Therefore, this child who had just turned eight years old was supported by the former Yongzhou Governor Yute, Zhongshu Lang Li Xin and others, and a platform was built in the hinterland of Yongzhou.

This is not good news for Liu Yao. As soon as the Han State moved its capital, the emperor Jin’s platform appeared in the territory, and whether it was Zhengshuo or not, it greatly disturbed people’s hearts.

Without hesitation, Liu Yao sent troops and horses to encircle and suppress this rebellious army.

However, Yongzhou Xingtai is only the first. Later, someone from Jiyin found the Sima ethnic group and stood up. Together with Sima Duan in Xuzhou and Sima Yan in Yangzhou, the four platforms stand side by side.

And this news, without leaking, was introduced to Bingzhou.

The author has something to say: Sima Yan has a total of 26 sons, and there are more than a dozen of them who live to grow up. So his grandsons are also in clumps. Without Luoyang City Break, most of these people were still alive, and it would be impossible for Sima Rui to ascend the throne. You can only find Sima Yan’s direct bloodline first.

But if we work together, these people can’t live long.

Sima Ye was actually the last emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, but the current situation is better than the tragedy of surrendering in a sheep cart in the history books.
