Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, failed to establish a country. He completely usurped power and put power on the shoulders of his grandfather Sima Yi, his uncle Sima Shi and his father Si Mazhao. The Sima family usurped Cao's political power by very despicable means and killed Wei Di Cao Mao in public in the court. The etiquette and morality followed by the general public broke all over the floor in an instant, and Cao Cao did another thing that challenged the ethical bottom line. After Sima Yan came to power, he collected beautiful women all over the country and sold officials and titles in order to collect money, repeating the mistake of sealing kings in the early Han Dynasty, sealing 27 kings with the same surname and sealing more than 500 princes, which directly laid the curse for the Eight Kings Rebellion.
Sima Yan also supported his uncle Wang Kai and Jingzhou secretariat Shi Chong to fight for power and gain, playing with the hard-earned money of ordinary people. What Sima Yan did worse was that he actually passed the throne to his idiot son, which led to political chaos in Jia Nanfeng and caused clan dissatisfaction. Sixteen years of the Eight Kings Rebellion. Years of war have finally made China's richest areas such as Chang 'an, Luoyang and Peking restless, with bones everywhere and wild animals running wild. The Central Plains Rebellion successfully attracted the tigers, leopards and wolves in the north, and the Huns, Xianbei, Jie, Di and Qiang with cold eyes and sly smiles moved in one after another. The short-lived Western Jin Dynasty staged the most tragic humiliation scene of Yongjia in the history of the Han nationality, which was finally destroyed by the Huns and became the first Han regime destroyed by foreigners in the centralized era.
The most painful thing is the people of China, and the people in the north will be displaced and move south on a large scale. The 300-year-old "Five Miscellaneous Flowers" left the fertile north of China with ten rooms and nine empty rooms and nothing. The Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was partial to the southeast, could not recover its lost land and lived in shame for more than a century. The Eastern Jin Dynasty was a dynasty in which the imperial power was swept away and the king and the horse ruled the world together. It is enough for the emperor and the nobility to divide power. The emperor lived in fear, and military commanders from all over the country constantly sent troops to kill the capital, threatening the safety of the emperor's life. Wang Dun, Su Jun and Huan Xuan sang I came out. I'm afraid there will never be a second dynasty in China's history that is so humiliating.
