Chapter 507 The First Stage of the War of the Eight Kings
Sun Ce couldn't help but twitch his lips. No matter how he thought about it, he never imagined that Sima Liang would run away under the cover of night.
Does he, as a prince of the royal family, not have any courage at all?!
Zhang Fei and the others mocked, "No wonder he's Sima Yi's son! He used to hide when facing the strategist! Look at this son of his, he's a real coward!"
In another timeline, the Sima family members, hiding deep in the mountains and forests, all focused their attention on Sima Yi!
I thought to myself, isn't Sima Liang a bit too cowardly?!
Sima Yi was equally furious; he feared he might die of anger from these filial sons before they even arrived to arrest them.
The Cao Wei arrest team on the road: That old scoundrel Sima! He can really run fast!!!
……
"Sima Liang launched a surprise attack on Xuchang under cover of night. His actions were seen by the ministers, who were furious. As a prince of the imperial family, Sima Yan even gave him extra prestige."
"The more trouble there was caused by the maternal relatives, the more responsibility he had to restore order. So the court officials placed their hopes on him, hoping he would step forward. But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. This guy actually ran away!"
"On the other hand, Yang Jun became even more smug after hearing the news. For example, on the day of the late emperor's funeral, Yang Jun was still arrogant and self-defense by a hundred armored soldiers, as if everything had been settled and the Jin Dynasty's territory was as easy as taking it out of his pocket."
Cao Shuang: This character setup and this act! You're a pro, bro!
"However, temporary triumph can lead to lifelong despair. Sometimes, when people are too arrogant, they will be taught a lesson!"
"Wasn't Cao Shuang just like that in the past? Besides, Yang Jun's talent might not even be as good as his!"
Jia Nanfeng: It's alright! I will take action!
"Next, we will talk about another key figure mentioned earlier—Jia Nanfeng."
"As mentioned earlier, Jia Nanfeng's rise to power was related to the alliance of several forces at the time. After all, her father, Jia Chong, through his efforts, finally managed to support the Jia family in the Jin Dynasty."
"Therefore, the Empress Yang Yan strongly promoted the selection of Jia's daughter as the Crown Princess, largely to ensure the status of her foolish son."
"However, Jia Nanfeng is a ruthless character. Putting aside her other deeds, Yang Jun's arrogance—not only does he disregard Sima Zhong, but he also treats her the same way. He's looking for trouble!"
"Therefore, Jia Nanfeng is preparing to take action against Yang Jun. With the support of the Imperial Guards and the eunuchs around Sima Zhong, the rest is to get the princes to come to the capital to deal with Yang Jun."
"Hey! Does this sound strangely familiar? The same script played out in the Eastern Han Dynasty, with He Jin, the Ten Attendants, and Dong Zhuo!"
"You have to say, the dramas of the Han Dynasty are extraordinary; even a thousand years later, the stories are still the same!"
Dong Zhuo: I'm going to the capital to become the boss! He knows this stuff!
"The Eastern Han Dynasty was not as long as the Jin Dynasty, but the lessons it learned that led to its demise are no longer relevant to anyone today. Jia Nanfeng's first choice for cooperation is still Sima Liang!"
"Jia Nanfeng said that she was speaking from Sima Liang's perspective. They were all ministers appointed by the late emperor to assist in governing, so why is it that you, kid, are getting so much attention!"
"However, she overestimated Sima Liang's courage. Our Brother Liang not only did not agree, but even advised Jia Nanfeng not to cause trouble!"
"He observed the celestial phenomena at night and knew that a villain like Yang Jun would be punished by Heaven sooner or later!" (From the Book of Jin)
Sima Yi (laughing in anger): This kid, I must have been out of my mind to choose the character "Liang" for him!
"Perhaps Jia Nanfeng did not expect Sima Liang to be able to protect the capital at all. After making such remarks, she immediately went to see the young Prince of Chu, Sima Wei."
"As the saying goes, youth is impetuous. The young Prince Sima Wei of Chu did not understand the dangers of the world, so he immediately wrote to the court, requesting to leave his post and go to Luoyang."
"As for Yang Jun, I don't know what he was thinking, but he didn't object to Prince Chu, Sima Wei, going to the capital. If he knew that Sima Wei's arrival in the capital was tantamount to his death countdown, I wonder what he would think!"
