Chapter 90 I Oppose
"This Luoyang is really complicated!" Sima Ji felt like he wanted to leave as soon as he came. If King Sima Jian of Qin was as deep as Luoyang as history, he would definitely agree with his opinion.
The matter is very simple. The Luoyang Imperial Army is not his own, but the tradition of Luoyang Imperial Army participating in the coup has been going through three dynasties since the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It has been two hundred years. Who knows when the conflict intensifies and comes out and doesn’t know who will follow him to chop off his head? If it weren’t for the purpose of enriching the population under his control, who came here to take risks?
During the Eight Kings Rebellion, the conflict between the vassal kings who were deeply involved in Luoyang and the vassal kings in charge of Luoyang's imperial guards was two representatives. King Zhao Sima Lun usurped the throne, and Emperor Sima Zhong's younger brother, King Huainan, fought against King Zhao. Another time was not long after, King Changsha Sima Yi fought against King Qi. The previous time, the Huainan king hundreds of personal soldiers fought against tens of thousands of imperial guards, and was killed. The latter time was more powerful. The King of Changsha also fought against tens of thousands of people, but killed the King of Qi.
The King of Yan felt that he did not have the ability of the King of Changsha, and he did not want to experience such things personally. Although the enemy of the few is in the epic, it only looks beautiful.
Sima Ji had a feeling that the current royal family must be not peaceful. It seems that they are all united around the King of Chu, but that is just a look. Once they are infected with power, family affection will not be family affection. Not to mention just a surname.
"A person has a beginning and an end. If you say you show your side, you will run away, and you must show your side!" Sima Ji, who came out to operate, decided to run away when the exile was a result. Oh, it's wrong! He annihilated 100 million enemies and turned around to the victory. He dominated Youzhou and blocked the Great Jin Dynasty.
This was Sima Ji's first time attending a court meeting. At first, he was very curious about what the ancient court meeting looked like. After all, when he came last time, he was just the prince and didn't have half a part-time job, so he couldn't see it.
This time Sima Ji also put on a court uniform and a hat. He was almost unaccustomed to this dress. He attended the court meeting with great enthusiasm, waiting to make things right for himself. Then? Why are the civil and military officials in the court like sleeping? No matter how many people in the Jin Dynasty said that there were nineteen states, so they would not talk about national affairs?
"The King of Yan was persecuted by Yang Ni's party. Now Yang Jun is executed. The imperial edict is given to the ward of the minister and is also a holiday!" The internal eunuch read the edict in a sharp voice, reminding a civil and military minister in the hall that it was time to come out to work.
"Your Majesty's Holy Break!" Hulala all the court officials knelt down. Most of the court officials in the Jin Dynasty maintained their usual style and watched coldly, asking you to make trouble. They just need to wait until everything is settled and kneel down with the crowd. Anyway, they know that no matter who is in power, they dare not make things difficult for them, such as the nobles of the gentry, and they will only think of ways to win them over.
"Don't advance, retreat, fight, or rob, or speak? What's the use of asking you ministers?" A court official in a hall would definitely not have thought that there was a vassal king who looked down on the high ranks of the gentry. He had just made up the trouble.
Sima Ji Heng was picking his nose and eyes. Didn’t this lifeless atmosphere appear in the late dynasty? But that’s right, Jin was the Wei regime, and it has been a hundred years since he took over the emperor and ordered the princes.
The main show is still in the inner palace, and together with a large number of royal families and several important ministers, Sima Zhong and Jia Nanfeng, it was a formal discussion on how to temporarily end the seizure of power. Sima Ji saw that there were quite a few vassal kings in Luoyang, and they didn’t know dozens of them. If it weren’t for Wei Guan and Zhang Hua and a few court officials, they would have thought it would be a family dinner.
How many of these royal families stand on the side of the King of Chu? How many are they standing on the side of the King of Runan? How many are they actually standing on the side of Jia Nanfeng? Sima Ji stood among a group of royal families and vassal kings watching coldly. This is different from the court meeting just now. This time it is the place to solve the problem!
For example, when dealing with Empress Dowager Yang, many royal families suggested that they should eliminate future troubles. But Jia Nanfeng, who had just talked about this issue with Sima Ji, sounded bad. Who told Sima Ji that Yang and Jia were actually relatives. Since they were all relatives, these royal families could eliminate future troubles today, and one day they could also eliminate future troubles.
Although Jia Nanfeng remained calm when he had the words of the King of Yan before, he always felt that these royal families who made a statement would prevent future troubles were disliked.
"Yang Ni was executed, but the Empress Dowager was not aware of it. I, the Great Jin Dynasty, ruled the world with filial piety, and I don't want Your Majesty to be accused of being unfilial. Although the Empress Dowager was wrong, she should not blame her too much!" Jia Nanfeng said and felt that this was not like something she could say. He never thought that one day she could still speak for Yang Zhi. But so many royal families were there, she had to speak out.
These royal families are really inferior to the King of Yan! Jia Nanfeng feels that the consciences of these royal families are very bad.
"There are still many remnants of Yang Ni. We will eliminate all evil deeds. I suggest that those who have been closely related to Yang Ni will be exiled!" Dong'an King Sima Yao stepped forward and said, "Yang Yu is still here, so these remnants must be prevented from getting ready."
"I mean the same thing!" Sima Ji knew that he was going to perform. He came to Youzhou to take revenge, so he couldn't forget it.
There was a lot of discussion about this matter. Although many court officials felt that there were too many killings, it would be much easier to accept if they were exile. Zhang Hua should carefully identify the words and not be too implicated. This matter will be over.
However, it was not a sentence from King Sima Liang of Runan. Sima Ji was still preparing to watch coldly for a while, but this sentence directly bombed Sima Ji, "The killing of Yang Ni's party should be rewarded according to merits. Yang Ni was punished. This is a blessing for my great Jin Dynasty. The old minister suggested that the reward of meritorious ministers!"
"My brother objected. A year ago, Yang Jun was granted hundreds of marquises. Unexpectedly, King Runan would be more generous!" Sima Ji just looked into the distance and saw the dense names, and directly came out to mock him, "How many people are there? Is it a thousand or eight hundred?"
Sima Liang was a little embarrassed because Sima Ji's guess was really accurate. There were 1,081 people on it, which was the number of generals and schoolmen in the entire Luoyang Imperial Army. As long as they were all in the Imperial Army, whether they participated in the killing of Yang Jun or not.
Now he found a way to get Yang Jun's marquis to exile, which was to alleviate the sequelae of the massive reward. Sima Liang came up and directly awarded more than 1,000 marquis, which was even more excessive than Yang Jun. Do you want to be a little embarrassed by this old bastard? Isn't it enough for the zombies in the court?
"It is normal for King Yan to not understand without the experience of the court!" Sima Liang said with a little respect for his seniority, "This is under the feet of the emperor, not outside the border where he eats raw meat and drinks blood!"
"More than a thousand generals and schools were granted marquis?" Sima Ji also lowered his face and said without giving Sima Liang any face. "No wonder after Emperor Wu buried in the sky, the King of Runan disappeared without a sound. Now it seems easy to explain. If Yang Jun is granted marquis, you can't use any other reward method?"
"King of Yan!" Sima Liang's voice became cold. He was the Dazai and now the minister of the regent. He felt very uncomfortable when he was mentioned that he was scared away by Yang Jun.
