Sun Ce and Sun Quan were brothers, and the reason why Sun Quan was able to seize the power of Eastern Wu was not because Sun Ce had no queen, but because Sun Ce was considering the overall situation. Looking at the princes of the world, all of them take the siege of the city and the unification of the world as their own responsibility, Eastern Wu naturally cannot be alone in it, for the sake of future generations, it is passed on to his son who is less than ten years old, Eastern Wu will inevitably have an unstable foundation, but if it is passed on to Sun Quan, Eastern Wu will not have this worry.
Sun Quan directly lowered the title of his eldest brother in this line, which was completely to show his attitude to Jiangdong Qunchen, and his power was handed over to his descendants! Cut off the thoughts of Sun Ce's old ministers and Sun Ce's descendants, avoid in the same room, and at the same time, it may not be to protect Sun Ce's pulse, at least he did not have to raise a butcher knife to his nephew. In the Song Dynasty, Zhao Guangyi directly destroyed his brother's descendants after inheriting power from his brother. Morally and emotionally, Sun Quan could not stand Sun Ce, at least it can be said to be stingy, or even ungrateful.
Sun Quan posthumously crowned his father Sun Jian as emperor. If sun ce, who was in line with his own generation, were posthumously crowned emperor, would this mean that Sun Ce's son officially recognized him as the legal heir, which posed a great threat to Sun Quan's position? Sun Ce's son was qualified to ascend to the throne, which quietly increased the pressure of Sun Quan's rule, so Sun Quan was very devoted to the cause of Eastern Wu, but he buried a big hidden danger for himself, just imagine, the emperor who should have ambitions would not bury a big pit for himself. This is also out of the protection of his own children, the son Sun Shao will thrive under the wings of his father, there will be no threat from his cousins, so that the successors will have nothing to worry about.
It is not ungrateful, it cannot be sealed, in ancient times, the great throne was passed from father to son, such a way of succession is called orthodox, the name can be smooth, the succession is legitimate, you can speak with prestige, so after Sun Quan was called emperor, in order to make others feel the legitimacy of his succession, he posthumously named his father Emperor Wulie. Another reason is that Sun Ce has heirs to stay, if he posthumously crowns his brother as emperor, then what will happen to his heirs, what will he do in the future, this is to bring instability to his regime If he canonizes his brother as emperor, then once Sun Quan dies, then his heirs and Sun Quan's heirs have the ability to succeed to the throne, is it not his own digging a pit for himself, so Sun Quan is not ungrateful, he is still good to his brother's heirs at least did not kill.
