A Jia Nanfeng can describe almost half of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Because of her downfall in the Western Jin Dynasty, Jia Nanfeng left a bad name in history.

Emperor Wu of Jin once said that Jia Nanfeng was ugly, short and black, and was not suitable for being a crown princess. However, she became the concubine of Prince Sima Zhong, and then became the queen.

In this issue, Ren Shiying, a master of the Tang Dynasty, will explain for you how Jia Nanfeng, who was extremely ugly, deposed the Prince and provoked the rebellion of the Eight Kings, which plunged the Western Jin Dynasty into a long-term civil war.

Jia Nanfeng is the daughter-in-law of Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Hui Di, the queen of Sima Zhong. During the reign of Emperor Hui of Jin, she dominated the political affairs, controlled the emperor and monopolized the power for ten years, which not only led to sixteen years of imperial clan disputes and eight kings' chaos, but also caused the newly unified Jin Dynasty to fall into division and chaos again and become a short-lived dynasty.

Ugly, but a crown princess.

Jia Nanfeng, nicknamed, is from Xiangling, Pingyang. His father, Jia Chong, was a general of Cao Wei, such as Sima and Chang Shi, and later Ting Wei. Jia Chong is eloquent, smooth and trusted.

Si Mazhao's eldest son, Sima Yan, was regarded as the emperor by Zen Buddhism, while Jia Chong was still the founding hero. He was added as Duke of Lu County, worshipped as a general, rode as a regular servant, and was shot by an official. Later, he was worshipped as a servant and official and participated in the confidential work of the parliament. At this time, he raised his eyebrows in one's hand and one's hand.

As the daughter of Jia Chong, Jia Nanfeng didn't look like a drowned rat when she grew up, but she was short, with dark skin and a scar on her big eyebrows. But such an ugly girl can marry Sima Zhong, the crown prince of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty. Why can such a marriage be made?

It turned out that in July of the seventh year of Taishigong, due to the rebellion of the Qin and Qiang in the northwest, the minister of the DPRK, Liang, and Liang, took the opportunity to say that they would send the etiquette Jia Chong out of the city. This proposal was approved by Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, but Jia Chong was unwilling to leave the court. Therefore, Xunxu, the supervisor of the Chinese Book Association who has close contacts with Jia Chong on weekdays, advised Jia Chong to marry his daughter Wu Jia to the prince of 13 years old, in order to prevent Jia Chong from leaving the court by marrying the prince.

Xun Xu and others took advantage of the opportunity of attending a banquet in the palace to propose to the emperor that the crown prince should get married as soon as possible in order to carry on the family line and inherit the imperial system. Jia Chong's daughter is beautiful, virtuous, virtuous and worthy of a prince. Please choose.

In fact, Emperor Wu of Jin had planned for the marriage of the prince, and he wanted to marry the daughter of the prince and minister Wei. Emperor Wu of Jin once said to Empress Yang Yan: Wei's daughter is really different from Jia's daughter. Jia's daughter is naturally jealous and has few children. They are not only black and ugly, but also short. If they get married, it will affect the descendants of Sima family. The women in the Wei family are virtuous and full of children and grandchildren. They are white and beautiful, and they are all slender.

But Queen Yang's attitude is the same as Xun Xu's, and she prefers Jia's. Qiu Chao and other veteran ministers echoed Queen Yang, saying that Jia Chong's daughter was the best candidate for the crown princess. Everyone spoke in unison, and even Queen Yang, who knew her mind, had a clear-cut attitude, which forced Emperor Wu of Song to agree. It happened that there was heavy snow in Luoyang, and the snow was more than two feet thick. Jia Chong was preparing to set out with a great army, but he had to stand by and wait for the ice and snow to melt. Xun Xu and others stepped up their efforts to urge the prince to get married as soon as possible. They said: It is a good sign that it snows in mid-spring and February. The crown prince should get married on the right day.

It was quickly recognized by Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty.

Because the prince is going to marry his daughter, Jia Chong can not go to the West. So, Emperor Wu wrote a letter and appointed Jia Chong as our time. At the beginning of the wedding, Jia Chong 12-year-old daughter Wu Jia was originally chosen, but because Wu Jia was smaller than her sister Jia Nanfeng, she couldn't even wear a wedding dress. Helpless, had to change Jia Nanfeng. Jia Nanfeng is 15 years old, two years older than the Prince. In this way, Jia Nanfeng became a crown princess by mistake.

There were still two pranks, and the waiter called the emperor.

Jia Nanfeng became a crown princess and gradually discovered that Prince Sima Zhong turned out to be a fool. Therefore, Jia Nanfeng was often angry with Dave, which made Sima Zhong afraid of the older concubine.

People in the imperial court are tacitly aware of the dementia and incompetence of Taizi Sima Zhong. Many honest ministers, for the sake of the country's future, euphemistically proposed to Emperor Wu that the prince is pure in quality and has the wind of spring valley. I'm afraid it's hard to cope with the situation in governing the country. Prince Fu Wei has been trying to persuade Emperor Wu to build another Chu Jun, but he dare not say so.

Once, the monarch and his subjects were going to hold a banquet in Yuntai Mausoleum. Wei pretended to be drunk and knelt before the throne of Emperor Wu and said, I have something to start first.

Wei put his hand on the throne and said, What a pity seat! Emperor Wu suddenly realized, but quietly, deliberately changed the subject. The discussion about the prince in the imperial court is escalating, and Emperor Wu Can avoided talking about it, let alone taking it lightly.

Finally, in order to quell the criticism in recent years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty designed to test the prince's ability to handle affairs in front of court ministers. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gave a big banquet and ordered all officials in the East Palace to attend. Then, send someone to send a secret letter to the prince, which contains official documents that need urgent treatment. Emperor Wu repeatedly told the prince to deal with it immediately, not to stay long, and then bring it back in person after handling it. Emperor Wu and his ministers drank and talked and waited on the banquet. When the messenger arrived at the East Palace, Jia Nanfeng couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat when he saw the secret letter. She knew the emperor's intention, and thought that this secret letter was related to the status of the prince and her future, and she dared not take it lightly.

Jia Nanfeng bribed the emissary to find someone to answer outside the palace. We don't know the specific situation, and the answer is often quoted. Zhang Hong reminded Jia Nanfeng that the prince didn't study at all. If he accepts the imperial edict and quotes more ancient meanings, he will definitely expose himself. When he pursued it, the prince couldn't stand it. In my opinion, it is better to talk about things and answer directly.

Jia Nanfeng was overjoyed and said to Zhang Hong, Give me a good answer. I won't forget your loyalty, and your prosperity is indispensable in the future.

Zhang is a little talented, and he is appreciated by Jia Nanfeng. He began to write and asked the prince to copy it again. Emperor Wu saw that the answer book was clear and coherent, and immediately handed it to Wei with a smile. Only then did the people in the temple know the truth of the banquet that day.

In April of the first year of Taixi, Sima Yan died of illness. Sima Zhong ascended the throne, known as Emperor Jinhui in history. Jia Nanfeng was naturally made queen.

Fight back, set a poison trap in series

At the beginning of Hui Di's accession to the throne, although Jia Nanfeng wanted to participate in state affairs, the imperial power was monopolized by Yang Jun, the father of Empress Yang Zhi. Yang Jun knew Jia Nanfeng's ambition and kept a strict guard against it, so Jia Nanfeng had no real power. Jia Nanfeng has long been dissatisfied with this and tried to get rid of Yang Jun ..

Yang Jun's autocratic power has also aroused the dissatisfaction of public officials, and the ruling and opposition parties have launched a heated discussion about it. Even his younger brother and nephew felt that the practice was inappropriate. They advised him not to monopolize the state affairs, but to pay attention to the imperial clan kings, and suggested that he should assist the government with Liang. But Yang Jun turned a deaf ear and went her own way. The royal princes and their officials at home and abroad are increasingly dissatisfied with Yang Jun.

Jia Nanfeng made many plans and finally decided to fight back. First, she ordered her best friend Li Zhao to secretly go to Xuchang, and found Wang Liang in Runa, and asked him to send troops to crusade against Yang Jun. Wang Liang in Runa is the fourth son of Sima Yi and the great-uncle of Jinhui Emperor. He is a cunning old fox with high qualifications. Although he was excluded from Beijing by Yang Jun, he didn't want to obey Jia Nanfeng's command. He only said that Yang Jun was cruel, but he didn't send troops. Seeing that Wang Liang in Runan could not be persuaded, Li Zhao went to Jingzhou to tell Wang Wei of Chu. Chu Wangwei is the son of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty and the younger brother of Emperor Hui Di. He is young, violent, brave and foolhardy. When he saw Li Zhaoqian coming, he generously promised to recruit soldiers to North Korea.

On the night of March 8th, the first year of Yongping, Jia Nanfeng lied to the imperial edict, saying that there was rebellion, and sent Chu and others to surround yangfu. Since then, the famous Eight Kings Rebellion in the history of the Western Jin Dynasty has begun, such as Wang Wei of Ru 'an, Wang Wei of Chu, Wang Lun of Zhao, Wang of Qi, Wang of Changsha, Wang of Chengdu, Wang of Hejian and Wang Yue of the East China Sea. As a result, Chu looted yangfu from top to bottom and was killed by the rebels. Empress Yang Zhi was abolished and eventually starved to death in Jinyong City.

In addition to Yang Jun, Yang Zhi, Wang Liang and Wei Fuzheng, Jia Nanfeng still can't interfere in state affairs at will. So, she skillfully set a trap by taking advantage of the contradiction between princes.

Jia Nanfeng first falsely accused Runa and Wei of scheming, told Wei to write a letter and ordered him to dismiss from office. After receiving the secret edict, Wang Wei of Chu wanted to vent his personal grievances and sent troops to surround their mansion overnight. As a result, Wang Liang in Runa was caught off guard and was hacked to death with a knife. Wei, an old minister who was loyal to the court all his life, was also killed, and nine of his descendants were killed.

One day, two old ministers of Fuzheng died and the ruling and opposition parties shook. In order to stabilize the situation, Jia Nanfeng used Chu as an excuse to kill the minister and plant the charges on Chu. Huidi couldn't tell the truth from the false, so he ordered Chu Wangwei to be arrested and brought to justice. Under the ingenious arrangement of Jia Nanfeng, Wang Wei, the king of Chu, was beheaded and became a scapegoat.

Jia Nanfeng killed several birds with one stone, got rid of her opponents one by one, and started her special dynasty.

Life, drink gold wine.

Jia Nanfeng runs rampant all over the world, intimidating both inside and outside, and fostering private parties. His brother Jia Mo, his brother Zhang Guo and his father Jia Chong's heir Sun Jiami were all entrusted with political affairs.

Jia Nanfeng and * * * gave birth to four daughters: Princess Hedong, Princess Linhai, Princess Shiping and the daughter who mourned for the emperor, but no son. Hui Di's eldest son, Prince Sima, was born to Xie Jiu, a gifted scholar of Hui Di's father, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so he was loved by his grandfather, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. But Jia Nanfeng didn't like Sima, and always wanted to abolish him. In order to achieve her goal, Jia Nanfeng lied that she was pregnant and stuffed some silk in her clothes to hide her eyes and ears. In labor, Jia Nanfeng took his sister Wu Jia's son to the palace as his newborn and named him Wei Zu in an attempt to replace the Prince with him.

Sima doesn't want to study in the decadent court life, but only knows pleasure. He often set up stalls in the palace to set up markets, kill animals and sell wine. He put the scale back by hand and estimated the weight. Mr. Wang advised him to restrain himself, but Sima didn't listen. He also stuck some needles in the felt mat where Du Xichang was sitting, and stabbed Du Xi's ass with blood. Sima didn't know his own weight, but he just took a ride to Jia Nanfeng.

In December of the ninth year of Yuankang, Jia Nanfeng pretended that Hui Di was ill and wanted to see Sima. Then he tricked Sima into drinking three liters, so drunk that he was forced to copy down the arrogant table that had already been drawn up. Jia Nanfeng took the opportunity to coerce the emperor to give him a death letter. Later, due to the great resistance of the imperial court, it was first abolished as Shu Ren, and then Jia Nanfeng came after it, and sent someone to escort Sima from Luoyang to Xuchang. Soon, in order to stay in power for a long time, Jia Nanfeng sent someone to kill Sima, who was only 23 years old.

Jia Nanfeng thought he could be carefree after getting rid of Sima, but the situation deteriorated rapidly. Imperial clan Zhao, who had been waiting for an opportunity, secretly contacted Liang Wangyou and set out with him. They took Jin Huidi hostage, took control of the harem and captured Jia Nanfeng.

Jia Nanfeng was deeply remorseful when he learned that the masterminds were Zhao Wang and Liang Wang. Subsequently, Jia Nanfeng was deposed by Zhao and sent to Jin Yongcheng, and Jia's confidants were also caught in the gang. Six days later, in Jia Nanfeng Palace where Empress Yang died of starvation, Zhao poisoned Jia Nanfeng gold foil wine. At that time, Jia Nanfeng, 45, made good use of political power all his life, but in the end he drank his own poisoned wine.

After Jia Nanfeng's death, the Western Jin Dynasty was plunged into endless war and turmoil. In just over ten years, the Western Jin Dynasty was sent to the grave of history.
