Chapter 547 The Demise of Later Zhao
People from another timeline during the Three Kingdoms period found it hard to believe; how could the coups of the Sixteen Kingdoms period seem to have occurred even faster than the War of the Eight Princes in the Western Jin Dynasty?
Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty
At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Di with resentment in his eyes. It turned out that the old man had learned that trick from him. All that talk about the heir being sick and encouraging him was just to fool him!
Not only did they harm Ran Min, but they also harmed him!
Zhu Gaoxu was indignant, and his expression clearly showed it!
Judy, already irritated and now itching to get her hands dirty, yelled, "...Get lost!..."

Back to the live broadcast room.
"Let me also tell you about the fate of the Shi family of Later Zhao. When Ye City fell into chaos, the high-ranking officials of the Jie and Hu tribes fled to various countries."
"And Shi Jian, the emperor of the Shi family, had a strong attachment to Ran Min. Even after the collapse of Later Zhao, he did not forget to assassinate Ran Min."
"Of course, he was also involved in the previous incidents, so Ran Min, having reached his limit, killed him!"
"Any of Shi Hu's descendants who were slow-moving and didn't escape were all purged. As for Ran (Shi) Min, he already didn't want to work for the Shi family during the chaos!"
"He wanted to advance his career and also wanted to destroy the traces of the Shi family. He once used a prophecy as an excuse: 'The successor to Zhao will be Li,' in order to change the dynasty."
"But ultimately, around 350 AD, he declared himself emperor, changing his name from Shi Min to Ran Min, and named the state Wei."
The people of Wanchao exclaimed: "This prophecy, if you just switch the two surnames, it's basically the Tang and Song dynasties!!!"
"However, the Later Zhao was not completely finished, because some people were so inconspicuous that they survived the purge and then declared themselves emperors in Xiangguo."
Shi Zhi: Oh wow, after so many uneventful years, it's finally my turn to take the [protagonist] role!
"This man was Shi Hu's son, Shi Zhi, who could be considered a successor to the Later Zhao dynasty, and he established the reign title of Yongning."
"Afterwards, Shi launched a war, determined to bring down the treacherous officials of Later Zhao, but failed and was even attacked by Ran Min."
"However, the throne of Later Zhao was poisoned. After Ran Min made his progress, he became irritable and easily angered. He even killed Li Nong. Then, he was not firm between the Han and the Hu peoples and his stance was very flexible."
"Perhaps it was Ran Min's order to kill the Hu, or perhaps he is now acting inhumanely. Whether it was the Xianbei Murong or the Qiang people, they all chose to help Shi Zhi instead of Ran Min. Several groups of people gathered more than 100,000 troops to rescue Shi Zhi."
Xianbei and Qiang people: If we pool our resources, we can always find some!
"Thus, the battle was lost. Ran Min personally led the army, but the result was even worse; of the 100,000 men, only he and a few others returned."
"However, before he left, he assigned his son to Hu soldiers. Upon hearing this news, he felt that Ran Wei was doomed, so he immediately sent his son to Shi Zhi!"
"It can be said that Ran Min betrayed the trust of the Han people, especially those who came to him seeking refuge, who thought he was a great ruler, only to find their sincerity wasted."
"After Ran Min's defeat and retreat, Ye City descended into chaos."
"Although Ran Wei is clearly in a state of decline, it is quite absurd that Ran Min, who has returned to Ye City, was able to chase after Liu Xian, who was sent by Shi Zhi, and even attack him in the face of Shi Zhi's counterattack!"
"No one expected that Shi Zhi would be murdered like this. The reason was simply that Liu Xian couldn't defeat him and sent someone to surrender. What's even more outrageous is that Ran Min actually believed it, and Liu Xian actually did it!"
"Therefore, things had come to this point. Xiangguo Stone was gone, and the Later Zhao dynasty was also gone. This year was 351 AD, and the Later Zhao dynasty officially perished."
The Sima family members: No!? He really did it??
The crowd (speechless): So, one dares to say it, and the other dares to believe it!
