Sima Yan is the grandson of Sima Yi
Sima Zhao's son
He forced the Emperor of Wei to abdicate the throne to him
The country was named Jin
Became the founding emperor
at the very beginning
Sima Yi was ambitious
Want to make a career
He did it.
Conquering the Eastern Wu
Unify the world
Appointed many wise officials
Govern the world in an orderly manner
But when he got old
Everything has changed
He began to like people's flattery.
Also began to indulge in pleasure
He built a lot of
Build a magnificent palace
Countless exquisite jades
Transported bit by bit from remote areas
Countless trees were cut down
Then sent to the palace
He also recruited many craftsmen and civilian workers.
Let these people work day and night
Many people died because of this
He erected several pillars in the palace
And the pillars are inlaid with gold and pearls.
He also collected countless beauties from all over the world
His harem has more than 10,000 beauties.
He has a hard time choosing among so many beauties
I found a few sheep.
Pulling the car
At whose palace did these sheep stop?
Which beauty did he favor that night?
besides
Sima Yan lived a lavish life
To maintain their own life
He began to make money by buying and selling official positions.
His extravagance had a bad influence
At that time, the rich and powerful were popular in competing for wealth.
Shi Chong exchanged a pot of pearls for a beautiful woman
He constructed a magnificent formula
Even the toilet is luxurious
There are countless servants serving
The rich and powerful have to change their clothes every time they go to the toilet
These wealthy people live luxurious lives
In the end, it still depends on the people to support
The lives of the people are getting harder day by day.
Although Sima Yan likes pleasure
But he is still good at politics.
But he made a big mistake
That is to appoint a fool as the heir
This silly son
His name is Sima Zhong
How stupid could Sima Zhong be?
One day Sima Yan and Sima Zhong were having dinner
After dinner
Sima Zhong's concubine came with her son to pay respect
Sima Yi asked who this child was
Sima Yan replied in despair: That is your son
Sima Qian is so stupid
Why was he appointed as the heir?
Because Sima Qian was the queen's legitimate son
Sima Qian actually always wanted to replace Sima Qian
But the Queen always stops me.
Later Sima Yi became emperor
The Western Jin Dynasty fell into a period of chaos and turmoil
In his later years, Sima Yi felt that he had built a great industry.
He did what his ancestors had never done.
So very proud
So he often likes others to flatter him.
Compare him with Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang in history
He asked an official
The official's name is Liu Yi
He is an honest and outspoken person.
He said that the emperor and the Han Dynasty Emperor Huan
Emperor Ling of Han
Sima Yan was very angry when he heard this.
Emperor Huan of Han and Emperor Ling of Han were famous tyrants.
Later generations often scolded these two monarchs.
Sima Yan asked me if I could be better than those saints
But I unified the world
Such a great achievement
Why do you compare me to those tyrants?
After hearing this, Liu Yi
He said calmly that although the emperors of the Han Dynasty were incompetent,
But they sold their positions
At least the money will be put into the treasury.
Your Majesty, you are different.
You put all the money from selling officials into your own private treasury.
You're not as good as them.
Just now, I could still be like these tyrants.
Now even these tyrants are worse than me.
People who don't know
I thought he
Sima Yan was an extremely incompetent emperor
Sima Yan said with a smile: Emperor Huan of Han
During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han
No one dares to say such a thing
How dare you say such a thing?
This shows that I can still listen to Nie Er's advice.
After that, Sima Yan never made things difficult for Liu Yi.
