Yin Hao, a famous scholar of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, became a well-known master of Qing Tan at a young age. Every day at sunrise, the door of the Yin family will open on time, and the fans waiting outside the door have reported their doors and handed over business cards, and Yin Hao will let the assistant arrange the schedule and receive them one by one.
Yin Hao has always had no intention of being out of the business, eating and wearing every day without worry, and feeling good about being surrounded by fans. During the ten years of seclusion, many high-ranking officials came to recruit, but he refused to resign. Therefore, Yin Hao's fame was even greater, and people at the time compared him to "Kong Ming's second", and his movements once became a "weather vane" that predicted the rise and fall of the world.
Yin Hao's fans are not lacking in princes and generals, and Sima Yu, the Prince of Huiji, is one of them. In 343, after Sima Yu entered the imperial government, he recruited Yin Hao as the general of Jianwu and the Assassin of Yangzhou. Yin Haoshang resigned, but Sima Yu still insisted. Yin Hao's uncle was then the official Shangshu, who was in the position of Taichangqing, and did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to persuade his nephew. Yin Hao finally accepted after five months of rubbing.
In 347, Huan Wen attacked Chengdu and seized the Chenghan regime, which was so powerful that it was feared by the imperial court. Because of Yin Hao's fame and was also cited as a confidant, in 350 AD, Sima Yu appointed Yin Hao as a general in the Chinese army and the governor of Yangyu Xu Yanqing's five states to contain Huan Wen. Although they were all governors of the army, the imperial court was doubly standard. Huan Wen repeatedly requested the Northern Expedition, but was politely rejected. When Yin Hao submitted a request for the Northern Expedition, the imperial court quickly approved it, not only asking for money and grain, but also transferring some soldiers and horses under Huan Wen to Yin Hao. As a result, the beams between Yin Hao and Huan Wen became deeper and deeper.
The Northern Expedition began smoothly. The First Thing the Jin Army encountered was the Han generals under former Qin, and when they heard that idols were coming, they threw away their swords and guns, ran over to ask for autographs and ask for a group photo, and the enemy generals sorted out poetry works and brought good wine and good dishes to come, and everyone drank and chatted together, exchanged life feelings, and had unlimited happiness. With the surrender of the Han army in the north, the Jin army soon marched to Xuchang, and the situation was very good.
However, in the Battle of Yingshang, the Jin army was defeated, and the whole situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the Northern Army, which had previously surrendered, also rebelled. At the critical moment, Huan Wen, who had a heavy army in hand, was not able to "rescue" it, and the fans in the army desperately killed a bloody road, and the commander Yin Hao was able to escape.
The following year, Former Qin and Former Yan suddenly fought a major war, the north was once again in chaos, Yin Hao ignored the persuasion of his subordinates, the whole army of 80,000 people from Shouyang again northern expedition, as a result, the forward rebellion, the Northern Expedition evolved into a nonsense civil war, Yin Hao also completely lost the play.
Yin Hao's two Northern Expeditions collapsed, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was seriously injured, and the government and the public also complained. Huan Wen and others, who had always been at odds with Yin Hao, took the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity and strongly demanded that they be held accountable. The imperial court demoted Yin Hao to a Shuren and exiled him to Xin'an County (信安县, in modern Qu County, Zhejiang).
After that, the Eastern Jin Dynasty entered the "Huanwen Era". Above the temple, Huan Wen was in charge of the government and was ambitious, and he commanded the Northern Expedition three times. Far away, the master Yin Hao's style is still the same, busy signing, selling books, being a guest, recording programs, and is always surrounded by many fans. It was only when the soldiers were defeated and held their heads, Huan Wen would think of his pen pal and political opponent of that year: "My good friend Old Yin is of high moral character and honest in speech, and if he is allowed to be a Shang Shu Ling or a servant, it is enough to become a model for hundreds of officials." Letting him unite the army to fight a war is really a sacrifice for the long and the short, and the use of talent is improper! ”
