Chapter 515 Sima Lun: It's finally my turn.
Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless and silent. They knew perfectly well that the two of them were definitely going to break up!
And things unfolded exactly as they had predicted!
"In particular, Sima Jiong was the son of Sima You, and had some personal grudge against Sima Yan."
"At that time, his father was seriously ill, but given the relationship between the two brothers, the imperial physicians did not treat him properly, which led Sima Yan to urge Sima You to set off."
"So, Sima You died under these circumstances after his condition worsened. Therefore, for Sima Jiong, Sima Lun's attitude was like discarding a used tool after it has served its purpose, just like his father did back then. Could he be willing to accept that? He would probably be so angry that he would laugh!"
"However, besides Sima Jiong, Sima Yun was also unhappy with Sima Lun."
"Let me briefly introduce Sima Yun. He was the ninth son of Sima Yan and the brother of Sima Zhong. After the Crown Prince case, some people also considered him as a candidate for the heir apparent."
"Sima Yun was calm and resolute, and he disliked Sima Lun's behavior very much, regarding him as a traitor. So he followed his great-grandfather Sima Yi's example and secretly raised assassins, preparing to launch a heavy attack on Sima Lun!"
Sima Yi: No!? Don't these later generations have any clear understanding of their own wisdom?!
"In their struggle, Sima Lun repeatedly pressed forward, and even after Sima Yun feigned illness and was stripped of his military power, Sima Lun remained uneasy about him."
"So, taking a step back opened up a whole new world. Sima Yun decided to take a step forward, he couldn't stand it anymore! Did they really think he was some kind of Ninja Turtle? He immediately led seven hundred personal guards in a fierce rebellion!"
Sima Yun: He really thinks he's a pushover!
"However, if we look closely at the several coups in the Western Jin Dynasty, the patterns are actually quite similar. For example, Sima Yun shouted: Sima Lun is rebelling! Let's beat him up together!"
"Simply because Sima Yun was not very lucky, he died in this coup at the young age of twenty-nine."
"The following drama had already been played out several times in the Western Jin Dynasty. Another wave of purges took away a group of people. At this time, Sima Lun paid homage to his father, Sima Yi. Although he was old, he also wanted to improve and wanted to be a superior person."
"Therefore, Sima Lun bestowed upon himself the Nine Bestowments. The emperor's opinion was not important. Similarly, the emperor's edicts could be issued by anyone but himself."
"Then, something even more outrageous happened. Sima Lun announced that his father, Sima Yi, appeared to him in a dream, telling him to take his nephew's position as soon as possible, and anyone who objected should go to his father!"
"Under these circumstances, Sima Zhong voluntarily (or was forced) to abdicate and was subsequently imprisoned in Jinyong City. After Sima Lun resolved these matters, he became the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty."
Sima Lun: Although you are my grand-nephew, I am your successor! It's not too much to call you the Retired Emperor, is it?!
At this moment, even the most thick-skinned members of the Sima family watching in front of the screen could no longer hold back!
Sima Yan even cursed, "You've turned against the Heavenly Gang! Who's whose grandson?!"
Meanwhile, Fusu in another timeline exclaimed that his eyes had been opened. In their Western Jin Dynasty, people would forge imperial edicts at the drop of a hat, and he always felt that the title of emperor was somewhat insignificant!
The feeling that anyone who's capable can rise to power—that's the terrible impact of killing a king in the street!
Meanwhile, the First Emperor was already questioning the meaning of life. How could the emperors of the Jin Dynasty be so outrageous?
Can someone simply forge an imperial edict and seize power, with the emperor's opinion completely disregarded?
