Human life is predestined, and sometimes this sentence can be really accurate. For example, there is an empress in Chinese history, who was in turmoil during her reign, and was deposed as many as 5 times, but each time she was restored. Even if the country is dead, she can go to the enemy country to become the queen. Are you saying that this is not "born phoenix"?
This man's name is sheep offering.
In 300, after Sima Lun and Sun Xiu forced the death of Jia Nanfeng, the former empress of the Jin Hui Emperor, in order to better manipulate the emperor, they plotted to establish another empress.
Yang Xianrong's maternal grandfather Sun Xu and Sun Xiu were the same sect, and several children and grandchildren of the Sun family had close ties with Sun Xiu, So Sun Xiu recommended Sun Xu's granddaughter to Sima Lun, and Yang Xianrong was made empress, officially beginning a legendary life.
Soon after, Sima Lun forced Emperor Hui of Jin to take the throne, and the kings of the clan raised troops one after another, and the world was in chaos.
In 304, Sima Ying raised an army to capture Luoyang and abolished the status of Empress Yang Xianrong, which was the first time that Yang Xianrong was deposed. The sheep sacrifice was imprisoned in Kim Yong City, and in the life of captivity, the sheep sacrifice rong used to feed on rats and cockroaches in order to survive. You can see how strong this woman's heart must be.
Soon, Sima Yue joined forces with the Left Guard general Chen Xiao (陈眕) to defeat Sima Ying and restore empress Dowager Yang to her honor. However, the good times did not last long, and Sima Yuan's subordinate Zhang Fang raised an army to attack Luoyang and depose her empress again, which was the second time that Yang Xianrong was deposed.
In the process of Zhang Fang's coercion of Emperor Hui of Jin to move to Chang'an, the officials Xun Fan and Liu Tun who remained in Luoyang took the opportunity to restore the position of Empress Yang, but unfortunately, after Zhang Fang settled down, he deposed her. This is the third time that the sheep sacrifice has been abolished.
At the moment of fierce contention between Sima Yue and Sima Yue, the Pingyang general Zhou Quan took advantage of the loophole, captured Luoyang, and restored the empress. However, within a few days, Zhou Quan was destroyed by He Qiao of Luoyang County, and the empress dowager of Yang Xianrong was gone, which was the fourth time he was deposed.
At that time, Sima Yong, the king of Hejian, issued an edict in the name of Emperor Hui of Jin, stating that the sheep sacrifice had been established by adulterers many times and should be given death. However, Lieutenant Liu Tun and Shangshu servant Xun Fan and Henan Yin Zhoufu said that the sheep sacrifice was innocent and should not be killed, and the sheep sacrifice was spared from death.
The final battle between the two kings ended with Sima Yue winning, and he took Emperor Hui of Jin back to Luoyang from Chang'an, once again restoring Yang Xianrong to the throne of empress.
The sheep who originally thought that they could settle down did not expect that the heavens had made a big joke again--the Jin Hui Emperor had died. However, Sima Yue, the final winner of the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, died of internal and external troubles due to the internal and external troubles of the government.
At the end of the laughter was Emperor Xiandi's younger brother Sima Chi, who arrived in Luoyang before the crown prince Sima Qin and claimed the title of emperor, while Yang Xianrong moved to Hongxun Palace as Empress Huidi. This is the fifth time that the sheep sacrifice has ceased to be a queen.
In 311 AD, the Xiongnu established the Former Zhao regime and sent troops to attack Luoyang, and the Western Jin Dynasty, which had already been squeezed dry by civil strife, had no power to bind the chickens, and since then the Western Jin Dynasty has perished, and Yang Xianrong has been captured, and because of its charm, she has become the concubine of the Xiongnu general Liu Yao.
The plot is not over here, it is reversed again, Former Zhao fell into civil unrest, Xiangguo Liu Yao tried to turn the tide, quell the rebellion of Jin Nan, established himself as emperor, and fengyang was sacrificed as empress. The sheep also bore him three children. In 322 AD, Yang Xianrong died, and his posthumous title was "Empress Xianwen".
At this point, all the dust has settled.
Liu Yao once asked Yang Xianrong how he compared to the Sima family. Yang Xianrong replied that the Sima family was the secret husband of the fallen country, and Liu Yao was the founding holy emperor; the Sima family could not even keep a wife and a child, Liu Yao could give his wife and children love and honor, and since she met Liu Yao, she had only seen what a big husband was.
Some people have commented that the sacrifice of sheep has no national integrity, and it is a shame to be proud of being committed to the Xiongnu; others say that the sacrifice of sheep is involuntary in the chaotic world, and it is really a helpless act to be treated as a plaything, like a drifting ping.
Which view do you agree with?
