Chapter 7 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop

——The political situation of the Western Jin Dynasty before the great changes in the Yuankang period, "singing and dancing" Empress Jia Nanfeng is in power, and the Jia family is of course popular. Jia Mi is the nephew of Empress Jiananfeng, so she is naturally very favored.In addition, he inherited the noble title of his maternal ancestor Jia Chong, and was also related to the empress Jiaofang. "(Jia) Mi is eager to learn and talented", he is a literary youth, although "the utensils are precious, the singing girls are beautiful, and they are very popular", he is still not satisfied with luxury.Some people flattered that Jia Mi's articles were gorgeous, comparable to Jia Yi, a great talent in the Han Dynasty. Rituals."At that time, there were twenty-four people in this prestigious literary circle, named "Article Twenty-Four Friends". Among them were not only Pan Yue, a beautiful man who had just survived Yang Jun's death, but also several celebrities in the history of Chinese literature—Lu Ji, Lu Ji, Yun, Zuo Si, Liu Kun, and Shi Chong, who became famous for his wealth, and others.

When it comes to Jia Mi, I have to tell about his grandfather Jia Chong, the father of the queen Jananfeng. "Murder and arson lead to riches and nobles, but repairing bridges and roads leads to poor and humble deaths."Jia Chong is just such a typical person who has done all kinds of bad things in his life, but enjoys the glory and wealth, and dies happily on the bed. Jia Chong was originally a minister of the Cao Wei Dynasty. After the Sima family took power, he immediately followed the wind and joined the Sima family wholeheartedly.After Wei Emperor Cao Mao shouted the famous historical slogan "Sima Zhao's heart is known to all passers-by", the young man boarded the chariot with a sword in hand, and personally fought out from the palace to attack the powerful minister Sima Zhao.Jia Chong led his soldiers to resist fighting Cao Mao.Since the emperor personally dispatched the horse, Sima's private army was in a disadvantageous situation and would be in danger of collapsing and fleeing.At the critical moment, Jia Chong said to the prince Sheren Cheng Ji: "It is urgent for Sima Gong to support your generation today, what are you waiting for!" After this "encouragement", the silly Cheng Ji rode out In one blow, he stabbed the handsome and good-looking twenty-year-old emperor Cao Mao to the point of death, and died under his horse.Soon, although Sima Zhao pretended to kill the three clans of Chengji to show that he had nothing to do with the "murder", he was very grateful to Jia Chong, the "behind the scenes" who saved the Sima family and killed Wei Emperor Cao Mao, and sealed him. Hou Zengyi is listed as a close confidant.When Sima Zhao was about to die, he wanted to pass on the throne to Sima You, but Jia Chongsheng called Sima Yan Kuanren and the eldest son, and tried to make Sima Yan his son.After Sima Yan usurped Wei, he thanked Jia Chong for recommending Libao's "Jianming" great kindness, and named him the Duke of Lu.

Jia Chong's family was very fortunate. The daughter of his ex-wife Li Shi was the concubine of Sima You, the king of Qi, and Jian Nanfeng, the daughter of his second wife Guo Huai, was the princess.Jia Chong thought that he had made great contributions to the Sima father and son, and he was often unscrupulous and arrogant.Of course, he also suffered from embarrassment and could not step down.Sun Hao, the Lord of Wu, was captured. Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty introduced Sun Hao and all the officials who had descended from the state of Wu, and said to Sun Hao, "I have set up this seat for you for a long time!" He was vigorous and heroic, and replied: "I am in the south, and I also set up this seat to wait for your majesty." It is a misreading of history books.).Jia Chong wanted to reprimand Sun Hao for giving himself a prestige in public, so he asked aggressively: "I heard that you gouged out people's eyes and skinned people in the south. What kind of punishment is this?" Sun Hao didn't give him any face. He looked at Jia Chong and said: "If any minister kills his king or rapes and returns unfaithfulness, he will be punished like this." When Jia Chong heard this, he knew that there was something in Sun Hao's words, and he was silently ashamed.At a court banquet, Henan Yin Yuchun got drunk and quarreled with Jia Chong. Jia Chong was furious and reprimanded: "Father is old and sick, but you are corrupt and don't go home to take care of him. You are really unfaithful and unfilial!" Yu Chun He also retorted: "Where is Gaogui Xianggong!"

The ancients ruled the world with loyalty and filial piety, and this was even more true in the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties. Zhang Juzheng, a powerful official in the Ming Dynasty, did not keep the funeral when his father died. .The Jin Dynasty usurped Wei, and Li Mi, who wrote "Chen Qing Biao", said in name that "the Holy Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety", but in fact it was euphemistically expressing that the Jin Dynasty could not be led by loyalty, because the Sima family itself was the one who usurped the superior.Feudal society attached great importance to loyalty and filial piety, and sometimes even filial piety was based on loyalty, because if you are not a filial son, you must be a loyal minister in vain. When the "ultra-left" trend was in full swing, there were often fabricated and moving propaganda stories. The parents of a certain model worker were seriously ill and dying. The model often stuck to his post in order to make a furnace of steel, cut a ridge of wheat, and stand a good shift. To turn grief into strength is not to give parents the last chance to see.Such performance will definitely be scolded by the world in the feudal society, and there will be no chance of becoming an official, because this kind of "performance" is contrary to human filial piety.

Jia Chong's second wife Guo Huaiqi was jealous.Jia and Guo had two sons who died because of Guo Huaiqi's jealousy.When the eldest son, Jia Limin, was three years old, the wet nurse held him in his arms. Jia Chong came in from the outside.Seeing it, Guo Huai thought Jia Chong was having an affair with the wet nurse, so he snatched the child in court and whipped the wet nurse to death. "(Jia) Limin fell in love with him, and died of illness." The child lived and ate with the wet nurse all day long, with deep feelings.Seeing that the nanny was beaten to death, she was terrified and missed, and soon died.Later, Guo Huai gave birth to another boy, who was more than one year old. Jia Chong loved his son and stroked the baby's bald head in the arms of the wet nurse. "Guo (Huai) suspected the nurse and killed her again, and the son also yearned for him and died." The two sons, because of Guo Huai's jealousy, died violently when they were young, and Jia Chong had no heir because of it.Jia's nanny is also really difficult to do, and she will be killed by the hostess at every turn.

Jia Chong was at odds with his servant Ren Kai.During a court meeting, Ren Kai persuaded Emperor Wu to send the "highly respected" Jia Chong as the governor of the military forces in the two prefectures of Qin and Liang on the pretext of Di Qiang's rebellion in Guanzhong, and planned to send him abroad as an official.After being a Beijing official for a long time, although the expatriate has added a few false titles, it is actually similar to being demoted.As long as you stay away from the political core and the emperor, and neglect to move around, you will soon be forgotten.When Jia Chong was angry, his good friend Xun Huo advised him to marry his daughter and the prince.When the crown prince gets married, the father-in-law will definitely have to stay in the capital to handle major events. In this way, there is no excuse for refusing, and it can't be done for some reason.Jia Chong's wife, Guo Huai, was also moving around, and Empress Yang blew the pillow hard. Jia Chong's cronies and others kept telling Emperor Wu that the Jia family's daughter was "talented and talented". .Therefore, the origin of many great events is often a small matter that is not even in the palm of the hand.If Jia Chong hadn't been sent abroad, he wouldn't have thought of marrying his daughter to the silly prince.This is good, my old body and bones stayed in the capital, and I died on the couch, but after several years of death, several families and clans were all killed, leaving no dog or dog behind.

Jia Mi is the son of Jia Chong's youngest daughter Jia Wu (who almost married Emperor Hui at that time), and his father is Han Shou from Nanyang. "Stealing Jade and Stealing Fragrance" is the father of this handsome man from Jia Mi.Han Shou is "beautiful in appearance and good in appearance". He is also a son of aristocrats. His great-grandfather Han Ji was once the Situ of the Wei State.The young man was about 20 years old, and he was designated as Sikong by Jia Chong, and he had banquets and discussions with Jia Chong's staff all day long in the mansion.Sichun, a girl from Jiawu, once saw the beautiful gentleman Han Shou through the window, so she sent a maid to Han Shou's place to act as a matchmaker.The maid was eloquent and said that Jia Wu was "glamorous and beautiful".Han Shou's heart was moved, the young man was in good health, "extraordinarily fast and over the wall", he was able to jump over such a tall mansion wall, this Han Shou's lightness kung fu is really amazing.The ugly girl eats the marrow and knows the taste. After several times of cloud and rain, she is very happy. She also steals the strange fragrance of the Western Regions that Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty bestowed on her father and gave it to the young man Han.Jia Chong's subordinates reported that Han Shou's body was full of strange fragrance, and he could not stop menstruating.Jia Chong was shocked, knowing that Emperor Wu only gave this kind of fragrance to himself and Da Sima Chen Qian.He also thinks that the youngest daughter has recently "Yue Chang is different from ordinary people". Knowing that her daughter stole the man, she also went down the slope and married Jia Wu to Han Shou as his wife.Han lived a good life, and Yuankang died of illness in the early years of Emperor Hui's accession to the throne. However, his four brothers and his wife Jia Wu were punished by the clan, and Jia Wu was beaten to death with a big stick.It can be seen that although the story of love between a man and a woman is beautiful and moving, you should stop at the climax and reunion, and then look down, it will be dripping with blood and flesh and blood.

Therefore, Jia Mi's original surname is Han, so it should be Han Mi.It was precisely because his grandfather Jia Chong had no sons that he succeeded Jia's family with his grandson and changed his surname to Jia.Jia Chong died of illness in the third year of Taikang (282), Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty. Dr. Qin Xiu also thought that he was "violating the etiquette and indulging in love, and chaotic Dalun" (referring to the fact that his grandson was his heir). .Emperor Wu was grateful for Jia Chong's support and support, but he refused and gave him the posthumous title of "Wu".

After the turmoil, the upper class in the Western Jin Dynasty enjoyed singing and dancing.Wang Rong is the Duke of Situ, "ups and downs with the times, and there is nothing to save him", he appoints his staff for all political affairs, and he is the big treasurer himself, hunting, drinking and feasting every day. "(Wang Rong) is greedy and stingy again, and his gardens are all over the world. He always manages his own teeth and makes accounting day and night. It is often insufficient." He has a good variety of plum trees in his family, and he sells them for profit, but he is afraid that others will imitate them, so he Using a thin needle to pierce the plum core before selling, the money fan has reached the point of insanity.Shang Shuling Wang Yan, Henan Yin Leguang, Wang Yan's younger brother Wang Cheng and others, "are good at talking, outside of their own minds, they are famous in the world, and people in the government and the public strive to admire them."These people hold scorpion tails all day long, take off their clothes and sleeves, shave their faces and burn incense, and look at them like gods and gods. The instrument is accurate and effective, but it is difficult not to subjugate the country!Ruan Xian, Ruan Xiu, Hu Wufuzhi, Xie Kun, Bi Zhuo and other gentry celebrities, "all take laissez-faire as their goal, but they don't think it wrong when they are drunk and naked."When the Wei and Jin Dynasties overlapped, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang and others, in order to avoid political killings, got drunk and pretended to be crazy.In the middle and late period of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, the political situation was stable, and there were no major conquests on all sides. It was the time to make great efforts to govern, but these court elites were uncharacteristically, and all of them became great philosophers and great poets.The "spiritual realm" of these people can best be expressed in a poem by the official Lang Bi Zhuo (zi Shimao): "Hold a crab claw in one hand, and a wine glass in the other. Slapping a floating wine pool is enough for a lifetime."

On Jananfeng's side, he was even more licentious and unrestrained.She first used the name of seeing a doctor to get together with the imperial physician Ling Chengju, unscrupulous, "disrupting the inside and outside".Afterwards, she still felt that it was not enough, and sent people from outside the palace to coax handsome young men into the palace every day. After losing the fire, they often murdered them to kill all these "medicine dregs".In the south of Luoyang City, there is a small official in charge of public security, "Duanli Beauty Shop", whose salary is usually meager, but suddenly he wears strange clothes, and the jewels and jade he wears are rare inner court items.Colleagues around him felt suspicious, reported it to their superiors, and sent someone to arrest him immediately for interrogation.The handsome young man argued: "I met an old woman earlier, saying that someone in her family was sick. The wizard divination said that a young man who lived in the south of the city would come to his house and he would be paid a lot. I was greedy for money, so I went with her. Changing trains on the way, I was hidden in a cage containing clothes. After walking for more than ten miles, I passed six or seven gates. As soon as the cage opened, I suddenly saw magnificent and exquisite buildings and palaces. I asked the old woman where this was. She replied that it was heaven. Immediately someone came over to wait on me to take a bath and incense. After eating and drinking, I was dressed in gorgeous clothes and brought into the room. There was a woman in the room, about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a short stature. , with dark skin, and a mole between her eyebrows. I spent several nights with her, sleeping and feasting together. When we parted, this short, fat black woman gave me these clothes and accessories." Probably this little official is good at bedtime, and he is beautiful and gentle. , was deeply loved by Jananfeng, so he spared his life.Everyone in the hall listened to the little official's argument and snickered. They all understood what was going on, and knew that this colleague and the current idiot sage were "brothers of sympathy" and they were sweating and working hard for Emperor Hui.

Everyone is in a coma, and it's not that they are not awake.Lu Bao from Nanyang wrote "The God of Money" to ridicule the times: "Money is the body, the image of the universe, and the relatives are like brothers. , danger can make peace, death can make life, honor can make cheap, and life can make death. Therefore, disputes cannot be overcome without money, stagnation cannot be solved without money, and resentment cannot be resolved without money. Zhu Yi, a man of Tu, loves my brother without end. Hold my hand and hold me to the end. All people today are only money!" In addition to this ironic comment, there are also honest and upright people who are deeply worried about national affairs and make great comments on the court.Prince Xi Majiang saw that the Xiongnu and other ethnic minorities who moved to Guanzhong were sometimes in turmoil, so he published "On Migration of Soldiers" to police the court.First, he quoted from many sources, describing the old stories of the ancestors of Yi and Di, who were "strange, greedy, fierce and unkind...the weak will be fearful, and the strong will invade and rebel". The various relocation policies since then are all "expedient measures, and the trend of the moment, not for the benefit of the world."The land in Guanzhong is fertile and abundant, and the emperors often use it as their capital.Moreover, at that time, taking advantage of the decline of his tribe and migrating so many Rong and Di people to Guanzhong, the Han scholars insulted his frailty and "poisoned his resentment to the bone marrow."With the passage of time, the situation has multiplied and prospered, "with a greedy and aggressive nature, with anger, taking advantage of the convenience, and always being rebellious."Therefore, the imperial court should take advantage of the current period of military power to relocate the Qiang and Di ethnic groups in Beidi, Jingzhao and other places to their original residences, "Each of them will attach their own species and return to their old land... Rong Jin Not miscellaneous, and get what they want...Even if you have a cunning heart and a policeman in the wind and dust, you will be far away from China, separated by mountains and rivers. The Qiang and other tribes were "valiant by nature and convenient for bowing horses", but after the unification of the Jin Dynasty, these tribes were in a state of "exhausted strength". There is no violation of left and right."If these measures are implemented, they will surely be able to "start a business and seek success for future generations", otherwise, "we will worry about the temporary labor and forget the eternal strategy; we will cherish the troubles of the sun and the moon and leave behind the enemies of the world".In the end, Jiang Tong pointed out clearly and profoundly: "A man who is a state is not troubled by poverty but by inequality. The worry is not by being few but by uneasiness. With the vastness of the world, the wealth of scholars and commoners should not include barbarians, and then take Enough! All of these can be ordered to be sent back to their homeland, to comfort their thoughts of wandering and cherishing the land, and to relieve my worries about China. Benefit this China, and travel to all directions. The virtues will last forever, and the plan will be the best." On the theory of Jiang Tong, the imperial court does not use it.In less than ten years, Jiang Tong's worries have become reality.The Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jie, Di, and Qiang invaded the Central Plains one after another.In 216 A.D., the great hero Cao Mengde divided the surrendered Huns into five groups, and appointed Shan Yu Hu Hanxie (whose surname was changed to Liu in the Wei Dynasty) as the commander-in-chief. , Xinxing (Xin County) and other places, and gradually mixed with the Han people, many people engaged in agricultural production.However, the aristocrats surnamed Liu of the various ethnic groups in the Xiongnu Tu still hold the old prestige, and there are five ready-made military organizations, which respond to everyone.In addition, there are many members of the Xiongnu and other Jie tribes scattered in the Shangdang. They are often discriminated against and oppressed by the local Han landlords. In addition, the Di people who live in Xianbei, Fufeng and other places near Bingzhou, and those who have lived scattered in Guanzhong since the Eastern Han Dynasty. Several forces of the Qiang people in various counties are ready to move. As long as there is an opportunity, the "rage of hatred" will eventually erupt like a volcano. At that time, people of insight had already seen the signs of chaos and killing. "Suo Jing, the Marquis of Guannei Dunhuang, knew that the world would be chaotic, and pointed to the bronze camel at the gate of Luoyang Palace and sighed: 'Meeting you is in the ears of thorns!'" (Suo Jing's "Ode to the Master" calligraphy was auctioned by Guardian Company in 2003 for 2200 yuan RMB 10,000, auctioned by the Palace Museum. Of course, the authenticity of this post is questionable.) In the sixth year of Emperor Hui of Jin Yuankang (296 A.D.), Sima Lunchong, the great general Zhao Wang who conquered the west, served as his subordinate Sun Xiu.After the court meeting of the Jin court, Sima Lun, king of Zhao, was replaced by Sima Lun, king of Liang, and Sima Lun was recruited into the court as a general of chariots and cavalry.Xie Xie's younger brother, Xie Jie, was the imperial censor Zhongcheng at the time, and he was in front of Sikong Zhang Hua to force Chen Sunxiu to trouble Di and Qiang.After Zhang Hua heard about it, he ordered Liang Wang Sima Xun to execute Sun Xiu after he took office.Sun Xiu was terrified, and sent his friend Xin Ran to bring a large number of treasures to Liang Wang to say good things, saying that "Di and Qiang rebelled against each other, and it was not (Sun) Xiu's crime."Liang Wang Sima Li had nothing to do with Zhao Wang Sima Lun and Sun Xiu, and he received a large sum of goodies, so naturally he let it go. After Zhao Wang Sima Lun entered the court, according to Sun Xiu's plan, he distributed treasures and made a deep bond with Jia's relatives, "Jia empress loves and believes in him."After building a good relationship with Empress Jia, Sima Lun asked to be recorded as a minister and to participate in the central government. During court discussions, Zhang Hua and Pei NFDA6 "stubbornly believed that it was impossible". Therefore, Sima Lun and Sun Xiu deeply hated Zhang and Pei. Zhao Wang Sima Lun and Sun Xiu entered the court, laying the groundwork for future disasters.
