Chapter 78 Chapter 77: Yiyang Wang Shijian

Shi Jian is the son of Shi Hu, the emperor of Zhao State.In April of the first year of Taining (349 A.D.), Shi Hu died of illness, Prince Shi Shi succeeded to the throne, and Shi Jian was named prime minister.Soon, Shi Zun, king of Pengcheng, led troops to kill Shi Shi, became emperor himself, and Shi Jian was named a servant.Shi Le's adopted grandson, Ran Min, was very annoyed because he was not made the prince, and scolded Shi Zun everywhere. Shi Zun called his brothers to discuss beheading Ran Min, but he did not do it because Queen Mother Zheng objected.Shi Jian also attended this meeting, and after the meeting, he hurriedly sent someone to inform Ran Min of the details of the meeting, and asked Ran Min to kill Shi Zun and support himself as emperor.Ran Min acted upon hearing the news, and killed Shi Zun in Ruyi Temple. Shi Jian seized the opportunity to occupy the throne of the emperor and made Ran Min a general.

Soon, Shi Jian also felt that Ran Min was a dangerous person, so he asked Leping Wang Shibao, Zhongshu Ling Li Song, and Palace General Zhang Cai to attack Ran Min in the dead of night, but Ran Min repelled him.Seeing Shi Bao and the others running back in a panic, Shi Jian immediately realized that Ran Min would use this as an excuse to launch a rebellion, so he came up with a way to kill Li Song, Zhang Cai, and Shi Bao in the middle of the night .As soon as Shi Bao and others were sent to the west, General Longxiang Sun Fudu led 3,000 Jie soldiers and came to demand to send troops to destroy Ran Min. When Shi Jian heard this, he immediately regained his energy and summoned up the courage to say to Sun Fudu: "You are a hero, work hard for me. I will watch you from the stage. If you kill Ran Min, I will definitely reward you." Sun Fudu believed this, and immediately led his troops to attack Ran Min. He was overwhelmed by Ran Min in an instant, and Ran Min swaggered into the palace from the Jinming Gate with several thousand soldiers and horses.Fearing that Ran Min would kill him, Shi Jian hastily opened the palace gates to welcome Ran Min into the palace, and said to Ran Min: "Sun Fudu rebelled, go and attack him!"

Shi Jian's actions did not move Ran Min. After entering the palace, Ran Min imprisoned Shi Jian and ordered a bloody massacre, saying that "within the six barbarians, anyone who dares to take up weapons will be executed!" Tens of thousands of people died innocently. or flee.In the first month of the following year, Shi Jian was killed by Ran Min and reigned for 103 days.
