Chapter 80 How many heroes were harmed by Sima Yi's curse
……

As Tianmu told the story, people from all dynasties showed disgust on their faces.

Now I understand why China was torn apart under the rule of the Sima family and why the Five Barbarians invaded China!
"The Sima family is truly the eternal sinner of China!"

"We are determined to restore the Han Dynasty and will never allow such a family to usurp our Han Dynasty!"

Late Han Dynasty, Yizhou.

Seeing how the Sima family had made a mess of China, Liu Bei felt depressed and once again made up his mind to never let the country fall into the hands of evildoers.

……

"Nonsense! It's totally untrue!"

Sima Yan was furious, helpless and furious, and felt that Tianmu was smearing his Sima family.

In the court, many ministers also made suggestions, but when the next title appeared, these people were collectively stunned!
【Why does no one like the Western Jin Dynasty? 】

Murder and kill!
Sima Yan's face turned extremely ugly.

……

[Look, there are fans in every dynasty, some worship Qin Shi Huang, some admire the glory of Han and Tang dynasties, some miss the status of literati in Song Dynasty, some like Genghis Khan and his family who conquered the world, not to mention the large number of Ming and Qing fans nowadays. Even in Sui Dynasty, because of the imperial examination and the Grand Canal, some people come out to praise it from time to time.]

……

"good!"

All the emperors mentioned by Tianmu showed warm smiles without exception.

……

[As for the Western Jin Dynasty alone, I have never heard of anyone still being a fan of them. ]

[As the owner of the Jin Dynasty, the Sima family, starting from the first Sima Yi, has a reputation that is really not flattering. ]

[I was also very puzzled at one point. Why is Sima Yi so hated? How much evil did he commit?]

[If you want to say that he was a powerful official, bullied orphans and widows, and sought power to usurp the throne, then Yang Jian and Zhao Kuangyin said that I am also familiar with this. ]

[If you say that he watched the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu fight for decades, and he got something for nothing, then the Aisin-Gioro family, who got something for nothing from Li Zicheng and the Ming Dynasty, would definitely follow suit and call him an expert.]

[If you want to say that he ordered his men to kill the king, and then the cat wept over the rat, then we can see that Zhu Yuanzhang, who killed the young Ming King, gave him a silent thumbs up.]

[If you say that he caused foreign enemies to invade China and take over half of the country, then the two emperors Huizong and Qinzong, the protagonists of the Jingkang Shame, would also shed tears of regret.]

[Look everyone, the Sima family has been criticized for many things in every dynasty. Why don't others criticize them, but only theirs? 】

……

"Nonsense, I am destined to be the emperor. God wants to pass the throne to me, and I have no choice."

Zhao Kuangyin felt very embarrassed and aggrieved. His old brothers insisted on putting the yellow robe on him, but what could he do?

If you refuse, you will die.

Yang Jian blushed. Could the emperor have been more considerate of his reputation? Why was he speaking so bluntly? Zhu was puzzled as to why he was discovered by later generations when he had done it so secretly. However, Zhu did not care. He was a commoner who had gained the throne in a legitimate way. He was not afraid of being gossiped by outsiders.

……

【Later I understood, you see there are so many complaints, people only take one scoop from the vast sea, or at most two scoops.】

【But what about the Sima family? 】

[I followed the spirit of adults who want to take all the choices they make, and committed all the sins.]

[If you want to do it all, that's fine. Isn't it just a lack of quality? If we talk about quality, can you be less qualified than our Li Shimin? But Li Shimin is very capable at work. He is good at civil and military affairs. He has expanded the territory and developed the economy. He is the greatest emperor in history. When it comes to personal morality, everyone turns a blind eye. ]

[But his Sima family was very tragic. Not only were there bad people, but there were also stupid people, right? There was a big brother named He Bu Rou Min, and because of his badness and stupidity, he caused chaos for nearly 300 years. ]

[So, if you ask historians to explain the ins and outs of this, they can give many objective reasons and historical inevitability, but the simple people and successors of successive generations put the blame firmly on the Sima family, so that the three words Sima Yi even became a curse for hundreds of years, and whoever touched them would be doomed.]

[The first person to be harmed by Sima Yi's curse was Tan Daoji, a famous general of the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties. The Southern History Biographies recorded that Daoji had made great contributions to the previous dynasty and was very famous. He had many trusted subordinates and had fought in hundreds of battles.]

【And his sons are very talented. 】

[The court was suspicious of Tan Daoji, and some people at that time said, "How do you know he is not Sima Zhongda?"]

[When these words reached the ears of Emperor Liu Yilong of Song, he was so frightened that his back went cold. He thought, damn, this man with great military achievements, although it is not certain whether Tan Daoji has the core of Sima the thief, but his military achievements and descendants are no worse than Sima the thief. What if he really is a person like Sima Yi in the future? ]

[Not long after, Tan Daoji was killed by Liu Song and his entire family was exterminated.]

[The second person who made a brilliant appearance was the first meritorious official in the Lingyan Pavilion of the Tang Dynasty, the prime minister Zhangsun Wuji, the uncle of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Li Zhi. ]

[At first, Wu Zetian wanted to kill Zhangsun Wuji, so she asked the Minister of Rites Xu Jingzong to frame him. Xu Jingzong reported to Li Zhi: Bo Zhao was an old friend of Emperor Wen of Han. Emperor Wen of Han succeeded the throne as King of Dai, and Bo Zhao also had the merit of calmness. After Bo Zhao killed someone, Emperor Wen ordered all officials to wear plain clothes and cry before killing him. To this day, the world regards Emperor Wen as a wise ruler.]

【Changsun Wuji is a treacherous hero today, similar to Wang Mang and Sima Yi. 】

[If Your Majesty delays any longer, I am afraid that something bad will happen and I will regret it too late.]

[After hearing this, Li Zhi lost his mind instantly and demoted Zhangsun Wuji without any investigation, which led to his suicide.]

……

"what!"

During the Zhenguan period.

Upon learning what Tianmu said, all the officials of the Tang Dynasty were shocked and looked at Changsun Wuji.

The other person's face turned pale and blue. To be honest, Changsun Wuji himself had never thought that one day he would be forced to death by his own nephew.

You know, Tianmu had mentioned before that it was he who reminded Your Majesty to make Li Zhi the crown prince and eventually helped this kid ascend the throne.

He had great merit in following the emperor and was also the emperor's uncle, but he did not have a good end and was eventually forced to death... Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji could not help but feel dazed and looked at Li Shimin sitting on the dragon throne pitifully.

Fang Xuanling and others who noticed Changsun Wuji's condition couldn't help but feel sympathetic, secretly thinking that this old villain Sima had been causing harm for thousands of years and had done great harm to people!

At this moment, Li Shimin was also shocked by the information revealed by the sky curtain, not only because of Changsun Wuji's matter, but also because he saw the name Wu Zetian on the sky curtain again!
