Chapter 512 Sima Yu: The wine is poisoned!
At this moment, several question marks appeared on the minds of those watching the screen. They could understand Jia Nanfeng's hatred for Sima Yu.
The problem is that removing the crown prince would disrupt the stable court, especially for those who are eyeing the throne!
Could it be that Jia Nanfeng, who had held power for so long, had become confused, or had they overestimated her...?
Meanwhile, in another timeline, Sima Yan was slapping his thigh in regret. Why had he been so foolish as to listen to those people's nonsense and choose Jia Nanfeng as his crown princess!
Now it seems his grandson will have to leave early! There's no time for him to wait for his turn; the War of the Eight Princes will break out immediately!
……
The live stream on the other end continues.
"In any case, after seven or eight years of Jia Nanfeng's rule, the relationship between Crown Prince Sima Yu and the Jia family had reached a point where both sides could no longer hold back."
"For example, Jia Mi of the Jia family, because Jia Nanfeng herself also greatly disliked Crown Prince Sima Yu."
"Therefore, her eldest nephew, Jia Mi, often bullied Sima Yu and looked down on him. As the saying goes, 'a warm face won't be offered to a cold backside,' and Sima Yu was unwilling to pay him any attention. They were the kind of people who couldn't stand each other."
"For example, the children are grown up! Spring has arrived, and it's time to discuss marriage. Grand Commandant Wang Yan's eldest and youngest daughters were given to Jia Mi and Sima Yu respectively!"
"But Sima Yu was dissatisfied with this choice and immediately expressed his heartfelt feelings to Jia Nanfeng and the others. In addition, Jia Mi had refused to let the crown prince go on several occasions. It can be said that the two had a long-standing grudge."
"So, Jia Mi went to Jia Nanfeng and falsely accused the Crown Prince, saying things like he wanted to bring down the Jia family. And wasn't this exactly what Jia Nanfeng was worried about?!"
"Since this crown prince has a grudge against the Jia family, why don't they just replace him? Perhaps Jia Nanfeng has really been in power for too long and has lost her mind. She has decisively chosen to strike hard against the crown prince!"
The Sima family members: ……(???)……
"So, in December of 299 AD, the ninth year of the Yuankang era, Jia Nanfeng falsely claimed that Sima Zhong was unwell and ordered the Crown Prince to enter the palace to attend to him. After the Crown Prince entered the palace, he was arranged to stay in a room, and a palace maid brought him wine."
"But Sima Yu refused. What's the point of drinking now? He still has to see his father later. But unexpectedly, the palace maids are even more arrogant than the Crown Prince, and they openly mock him."
A palace maid: Your Highness is unfilial! Your father offered you wine, and you refused!?
"As mentioned before, what was the Jin Dynasty known for? Filial piety! Just because a palace maid mocked him like that, he was labeled as unfilial. Good heavens, refusing to drink made him a criminal. Did Sima Yu have any reason to refute this?!"
"Obviously not, and in the end he could only drink this cup of wine. However, the wine was poisoned, and drinking it would make him dizzy. Then the time came, and Pan Yue woke him up and asked him to copy the blessing."
Sima Yu: A conspiracy! A blatant conspiracy!
"But the Crown Prince, who was so dizzy, didn't even know what he had copied. Anyway, when it reached the Emperor and Empress, it became a different story. For example: '...Emperor and Empress, quickly commit suicide...I can't wait, I'll do it myself...'"
"At this point, Empress Jia's conspiracy had succeeded, and she immediately ordered the deposition and execution of Crown Prince Sima Yu."
"Although it's a bit puzzling why the Crown Prince fell into Jia Nanfeng's trap, the others aren't stupid; they know the truth about this case perfectly well."
"Therefore, many court officials, such as Zhang Hua, demanded a thorough reinvestigation of the case. Jia Nanfeng was afraid that delays would ruin her plans, so in the end the crown prince was only deposed and imprisoned in Jinyong City outside Luoyang."
