Live History Broadcast: Opening Ceremony Spoilers - Our Ancestor Was Enraged

Chapter 508 Sima Wei: Crossbowmen! Prepare!!

Wan Chaozhong's people: What can he think! He can ask his predecessor He Jin what he thinks!?

He Jin (looking weary as he lights a cigarette.jpg): ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉ……

"What's even more amazing is that after the King of Chu entered the capital, he became the General of the Guards and the Commander of the Northern Army. He not only left his fiefdom, but also found a good job in the central government!"

"Should we praise Yang Jun or laugh at him? It's obvious that his level of skill and prestige are far inferior to Sima Yi's; he hasn't even completely controlled the Imperial Guards!"

"It's impossible that he gave Sima Wei this power just to keep people under his nose, right?! That would make him seem rather unintelligent!"

"Moreover, it makes Sima Yan, who pushed him to the throne, seem like a fool, hahaha!"

Sima Yan: This isn't funny!!!

"Now that Sima Wei has entered the game, the time has come to eliminate Yang Jun. So, late one night, the team tasked with eliminating the maternal relatives officially took action!"

"But it's just a coup! It's all the same. Jia Nanfeng used the emperor's edict to falsely accuse Yang Jun of treason, and then handed it over to the second-in-command, Sima Wei. He stationed troops at Sima Gate and put the palace and surrounding areas under martial law. A major battle was about to break out."

"Afterwards, Sima Wei surrounded Yang Jun's residence and immediately ordered his men to shoot at Yang Jun from a high place."

Sima Wei: Archers! Ready!

"Around Yang Jun, there were also those who advised him to burn down the Yunlong Gate, directly establish the Crown Prince as the new emperor, and kill Jia Nanfeng and Sima Wei. Anyway, it has come to this point, it's either you die or she lives!"

"But Yang Jun hesitated. At such a critical juncture, hesitation could easily lead to defeat. So the person who gave him the advice was furious! You're such a coward, why are you trying to seize power!"

“You did all the work, oh, and now you say you don’t dare? Are you just messing with them? So all the people who came up with the idea left, and in the end, Sima Wei still found Yang Jun hiding in the stable and then killed him.”

Cao Shuang: You still don't understand the lesson I taught you!

"As for his cronies, Empress Yang, and others, their fates were either the extermination of their entire families or imprisonment."

"After the execution of Yang Jun and others, it was not the end, but the beginning, just like at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

After hearing the entire story of the execution of the powerful maternal relative Yang Jun, Sima Yan thought: ...Sima Liang wasn't even as bold as Jia Nanfeng!

Before continuing with the subsequent War of the Eight Princes, let me first introduce who was involved, since there are many characters and their names are hard to remember!

"Although this period of history is called the War of the Eight Princes, only eight princes were actually involved, among whom the key figures were Sima Yi's sons, namely Sima Liang, the Prince of Runan, and Sima Lun, the Prince of Zhao."

"There were also Sima Yan's children, namely Sima Wei, the Prince of Chu; Sima Yi, the Prince of Changsha; and Sima Ying, the Prince of Chengdu."

"Finally, there were the sons of Sima You, Sima Gui, and Sima Tai, namely Sima Jiong, the Prince of Qi; Sima Yong, the Prince of Hejian; and Sima Yue, the Prince of Donghai."

At this moment, the people in front of the screen felt that it would have been better if they hadn't heard it at all. It was just eight kings, but after hearing about the relationships, their brains were almost spinning!

Don't say anything! Don't say anything yet! Do you have any pictures? Let's clear their heads!

"The relationships are indeed a bit complicated. It all started after Sima Yi's father, Sima Fang, had eight sons, who were known as the Eight Talented Sima!"

Afterwards, Lin Ke searched for a simplified relationship diagram and sorted out their relationships.

The people of Wanchao who saw the picture: It's clear now! But why is there a knot in my head?!?

At this moment, a comment quietly attracted the attention of others: Simply put, it's about Sima killing Sima, then joining forces with Sima to kill Sima again!

Excellent! Your words are more insightful than any other conversation!
