Classic Translation of Sinology: ShiShu Xinyu Chen Tai Bingzhong is fierce and stubborn

I. Chengji Junjun explosion "hot search"

In 254, Sima Shi deposed Cao Fang, who was 23 years old at the time, and established Cao Pi, the grandson of Emperor Wen of Wei, as emperor, cao pi, as the heir of his heirless uncle Cao Rui Wei Ming Emperor, and changed his name to "Zheng Yuan"; Cao Shi was 12 years old at the time, and the real power was successively controlled by Sima Shi and Sima Zhao.

Growing up, Cao Became Increasingly Dissatisfied with the Dictatorship sima Zhao. Soon he wrote a "Hidden Dragon Poem", and Sima Zhao became wary when he found it.

The wounded dragon is trapped and cannot cross the abyss.

The upper does not fly in the sky, and the lower does not appear in the field.

The cockroach dwells at the bottom of the well, and the loach dances in front of it.

Hidden teeth and claw armor, so do I!

In May of the fifth year of Ganlu (260), Cao Xian summoned Wang Shen, Wang Jing, Wang Ye and three others and indignantly said: "Sima Zhao's heart is known to passers-by!" You can't sit back and be humiliated, and today you should consult with the secretary of state and so on. Ignoring the opposition of Empress Guo and his courtiers, he led more than three hundred palace people to attack Sima Zhao.

Wang Shen and Wang Ye went first and reported to Sima Zhao. Sima Zhao immediately sent troops into the palace to suppress it, and the two sides met at the east gate of the palace. The Central Defender Jia Chong led his army to meet Cao Xi under the Southern Que. Jia Chong ordered Cheng Ji to kill Cao Ji, and Cheng Ji stabbed Cao Ji in the chest with a sword, and Cao Ji lost his breath and died on the spot in the car, bleeding all over the ground, only 20 years old (19 years old).

Subsequently, Sima Zhao, under the guise of Empress Guo, issued an edict that "the noble township prince disobeyed the law, fell into a great calamity, and buried himself with civil rites according to the story of the sins of king Changyi of Han", but at the request of Sima Zhao's uncle Sima Fu and other important ministers, he finally buried Cao Zhao on the coast of the thirty-mile stream northwest of Luoyang with Wang Li, only getting off the bus for a few times and not setting up a beautiful one. The people gathered together and watched, saying, "This is the Son of Heaven who was killed the day before." "Some people even cover their faces and cry, sad and unable to help themselves.

Violent like Dong Zhuo, the abolition of Tianzi can also be regarded as a fake completion of the full set of showmanship process. The Sima clique actually assassinated Tianzi in the most primitive and brutal way, and was immediately caught in the whirlpool of public opinion, and Sima Zhao's plan to usurp the throne was accidentally disrupted, and he was eager to calm public opinion and eliminate the influence as soon as possible.

Second, Jia Chong, the father of the demon queen

The order to kill Cao Xi came from Jia Chong. His father Jia Kui served the Cao Wei clique all his life, and in Jia Chong's generation, the Sima clique manipulated the situation, and Jia Chong became a die-hard fan of the Sima clan. When Cao Huan was attacking Sima Shi, he knew that once Cao Huan saw Sima Zhao directly, "the general was in the face", things would be difficult to clean up, so he ordered Cheng Ji to assassinate Cao Ji. Because he was a hardcore confidant of sima shi, instead of being punished, he was promoted after the new puppet emperor Cao Wan was appointed.

Jia Chong's daughter was the famous demon empress Jia Nanfeng, married to the famous mentally handicapped emperor Sima Zheng of Jinhui (the original author of "Why Not Eat Meat"), the couple triggered the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", so that the strength of the Han people was lost in internal friction, unable to resist the barbarian invasion, and finally the Central Plains fell into the hands of the Zhuhu foreign tribes, and from then on the city changed the banner of the Great King, and the people of the Central Plains spent nearly two centuries in the darkest era, until the Sui and Tang dynasties were unified.

3. Death of Chen Tai

Chen Tai (?) –260), courtesy name Xuanbo, was a native of Xuchang, Yingchuan, the son of Chen Qun, a famous chancellor of Cao Wei, and a grandson of Xun Yu. An important general of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period. After his father's death, he left the imperial court to guard the frontier, and repeatedly worked with Guo Huai and Deng Ai and others to stop Jiang Wei's attacks and made many meritorious achievements, and after his death, he was posthumously awarded the title of Sikong (司空), and was posthumously honored as Marquis Mu.

After the gaopingling change, although Chen Tai was trusted and valued by Sima Shi, his position was still loyal to the Cao clan. After Cao Xian was killed, public opinion was fierce, and Sima Zhao summoned his ministers to discuss how to remove this hot search. When all the important ministers in the court were absent from Chen Tai, Sima Zhao sent Xun (Chen Tai's uncle) to invite him to go, and Chen Tai's family forced Chen Tai to go for fear of offending Sima Zhao, and Chen Tai entered in tears.

Does Sima Zhao really need Chen Tai's advice? There is no need, he already knew that Chen Tai was not a person on his side, and his real intentions were twofold: First, Li Wei, you see, Chen Tai's diehards, I asked him to come, he also had to come; second, he took the opportunity to test Chen Tai again to see his position on such a major event -- perhaps, he still held a little illusion: Emperor Cao Wei I said kill and kill, are you considering changing camps?

Chen Tai was really loyal to Cao Wei, and he was also really tough, and he directly demanded that "Jia Chong be killed".

Jia Chong was Sima Shi's confidant, and with many henchmen and strong strength, Sima Zhao could never cut off his own arm. He asked Chen Tai to put forward more gentle suggestions, which was both a further test of Chen Tai and a show in front of Jia Chong: Look, I am "not abandoned, not abandoned" to you. This time, Chen Tai was even more faceless: "It can only be more up, not more down." What is more "superior" than Jia Chong is naturally Sima Zhao himself, which is to openly break with Sima Zhao: Labor and capital even want to kill you, let alone Jia Chong's dog?

The black cauldron always had to be carried, and Sima Zhao eventually pushed all the charges of killing the king to Cheng Ji, saying that Cheng Ji had killed Cao Ji against his orders, and had killed the Cheng Ji clan for the crime of "great rebellion", breaking the Cheng clan's vein.

Sun Sheng's "Spring and Autumn of the Wei Dynasty" says that Chen Tai died because Sima Zhao did not kill Jia Chong and vomited blood.

Xi's "Spring and Autumn of the Han Dynasty" also says that Chen Tai committed suicide because of this incident.

In short, Chen Tai died because of this, on the eve of the collapse of the Cao Wei Building.
