Note: "Niu Hou" refers to the son of Niu, whose surname is the heir of Sima. Besides Jin Shu, Shu Wei, He Lu, Rong Zhai's Essays and Bin Tuilu, there are many historical documents. Prophecy in Wei and Jin Dynasties. "NiuShi generation SiMaShi inherit mercy. There is also a saying that "Niu" is homophonic with "Liu", which means that the Sima family will be replaced by Liu.
Si Marui, whose real name is Wen Jing, is the great-grandson of Xuan Di Sima Yi, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty. His father was Jin of Langya, and he was regarded as the first emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Like most founding emperors, history books tout his unusual appearance when he was born, such as something shining, something illuminating the whole room, and so on. At the age of fifteen, he succeeded to the throne of Langya. He is a Shen Min, living a luxurious life and living like a stable heir to the royal family.
However, in the book of Liu Ji, the emperor of Jin Dynasty, there is a passage questioning his royal lineage.
At the beginning, there was a painting called "The Horses and Horses Who Prostitute". Therefore, Xuan Di was very jealous of Niu Shi, so he took two bites. He shared a sip of wine, the emperor drank the best wine first, and he drank the poisoned wine Taurus. Princess Xiahou _, who was born in, also got in touch with Fu Yun through the petty official Niu Shi.
At that time, there was a prophecy book called "The Map of the Xuanshi", which recorded a prophecy. Although the time is not long, it is enough to scare Sima Yi into a cold sweat. It can be summed up in four words: "the king of cattle and horses prostitutes"
Sima Yi thinks that horses represent Sima's family and cows represent people named Niu. This prediction means that people surnamed Niu will endanger the descendants of Sima family.
So Sima Yi had a deep doubt about Niu Shi. At that time, there happened to be a general named Jinniu, who was a general after the official worship in Cao Wei period. So unfortunately, he became a thorn in Sima Yi's side.
In order to eradicate Taurus completely and minimize the harm of prophecy, Sima Yi thought of a unique trick. He had a double-necked hip flask made and then invited Taurus to drink. Jin, a soldier, knew nothing about the intrigue here, so he agreed and set foot on the road of no return.
When drinking, Sima Yi drank non-toxic wine first, then blocked the mouth of the cave, opened the mouth full of poisonous wine, and used it to pour wine for Taurus. Jinniu drank all the poisoned wine and died.
Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the prophecy had been broken and that he could rest easy from now on, so he continued to work hard for the glory of Sima family with satisfaction.
However, things are unpredictable. In the decades after Sima Yi's death, the real protagonist of the prediction of "after cattle and horses" appeared.
Xiahou Guangji, the daughter of Xiahou's family, was smart and beautiful since childhood, and was chosen by the then King Langya to be the imperial concubine of her son Sima Jin. However, Xiahou Guangji had an affair with Qin Niu, a small official, and gave birth to a child named Si Marui for her and Qin Niu.
A few years later, with the aura of Sima royalty, Si Marui successfully opened the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Qin, Jin and Sui are all similar. But when Qin and Sui died, they were swept out of the house. Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty was called "the whore of cattle and horses", it was a sacrifice of Sima family, which lasted for more than a hundred years.
Sima Shi won the country from Cao Wei. After decades of the Western Jin Dynasty, he didn't expect to finally fall into the hands of Si Marui and give his royal blood to others. However, even so, Si Marui finally extended the Jin Dynasty for another hundred years in the name of Sima Shi.
