Sun Lin took the beef and wine and saw Sun Xiu, who refused to accept it. Sun Lin had no choice but to take him to the zuo general Zhang Bu's house, and when the wine was strong, he complained: "When the young lord was deposed, how many people persuaded me to ascend the throne myself, and I thought that His Majesty was wise and wise, and only then did I welcome him as emperor." Without me, he wouldn't have been emperor at all. Now that I have gone to see him, he has rejected me, and I am no different from a general minister. I'm going to make more plans! ”
Zhang Bu told Sun Xiu what Sun Lin had said, and Sun Xiu held a grudge in his heart and was worried that he would launch a coup d'état, so he rewarded him many times.
On November 7, Sun Xiu, the lord of Wu, issued an edict saying: "The great general Sun Lin is in charge of all the chinese and foreign militaries, and there are many affairs, and now, the Wei general and the imperial master Sun Enjia are appointed as attendants, and they share all the affairs with the great general." Someone accused Sun Lin of harboring a grudge, insulting the emperor, and trying to plot a rebellion, so Sun Xiu arrested the man and handed him over to Sun Lin, who killed him, but from then on his heart was even more afraid.
Sun Lin, through Mengzong, transferred Sun Xiu and asked to go out and camp in Wuchang, and Sun Xiu agreed. Sun Lin ordered more than 10,000 elite soldiers of the Chinese army under his command to let them board the ship and take away the weapons in the arsenal, and Sun Xiu ordered all of them to be given. Sun Lin asked to send two Zhongshu Lang to accompany him to preside over the military affairs of Jingzhou, and the official in charge said that Zhongshu Lang was not suitable for going out, Sun Xiu granted permission, and all of Sun Lin's requirements were met.
The general Wei Miao said to Sun Xiu: "Sun Lin lives outside, and there will inevitably be chaos. Shi Shuo, a martial guard, also told Sun Lin to rebel. Sun Xiu, preparing to attack Sun Lin, secretly asked the auxiliary general Zhang Bu for advice, and Zhang Bu said: "Although the left general Ding Feng cannot write, he is wise and can judge big things. Sun Xiu then summoned Ding Feng, told him his plan, and asked him what his plan was. Ding Feng said: "There are many henchmen and huge forces of the Brothers, and I am afraid that people's hearts are different and it is not easy to subdue them. His Majesty could kill him with the soldiers of the Guards at the time of the Lapa Festival. Sun Xiu obeyed.
On December 7, there were rumors circulating in Jianye City that there would be an incident tomorrow at the Lapa Eight Festival, and Sun Lin was very unhappy when she heard it. At night, the wind blew strongly, the sand and dust filled the sky, blowing down many houses, and Sun Lin was even more afraid. On the eighth day of the meeting, Sun Lin said that he was ill and could not come, Sun Xiu forced him to come, sent emissaries to urge him more than ten times, Sun Lin had no choice but to enter the palace, and stopped him left and right. Sun Lin said: "The state has repeatedly issued orders, and you can no longer resign, you can reorganize the troops in advance, put a fire in the palace, and use this as an excuse that I can come back soon." ”
Sun Lin then entered the palace, and after a while, the palace was on fire. Sun Lin asked to go home, and Sun Xiu said: "There are so many soldiers outside, there is no need for the minister to personally fight the fire." Sun Lin got up and left the table, and Ding Feng and Zhang Bu gestured left and right with their eyes and bound him. Sun Lin prostrated her head and said, "Willing to exile Jiaozhou." Sun Xiu said, "Why didn't you exile Teng Yin and Lü Zhao to the prefecture in the first place?" Sun Lin pleaded again, "Willing to be an official slave." Sun Xiu said, "Why didn't you let Teng Yin and Lü Zhao be official slaves in the first place?" Sun Lin was immediately beheaded.
Then he took Sun Lin's first rank and said to his soldiers: "All those who conspire with Sun Lin are pardoned!" "Five thousand people laid down their arms on the spot. Sun Min wanted to take a boat to the Northern Wei state and was chased and killed. Sun Lin was wiped out of the three tribes, and Sun Jun's grave was dug up, his seal was taken, and the coffin was cut thin and reburied. (Ancient coffins, due to the political status of the deceased, also have differences in thickness and thinness, and the thinning of the coffin shows dethronement.) ）
On December 9, Sun Xiu, the lord of Wu, appointed Zhang Bu as the governor of the Chinese army. Zhuge Ke, Teng Yin, Lü Zhao, etc. were reburied, and all those who were exiled because of Zhuge Ke's case were recalled. Some of the courtiers suggested that a monument be erected for Zhuge Ke, and Sun Xiu issued an edict saying: "He went out in the middle of summer, the soldiers were seriously injured, and they did not achieve any success, so it cannot be said that he was talented; he accepted the heavy responsibility of entrusting himself to the orphan, but he died at the hands of a young man, which cannot be said to be wise." So the proposal to erect a monument to him was abandoned.

Get rid of Sun Lin, Sun Liang failed, and Sun Xiu succeeded. Why?
Sun Xiu is "stable, accurate and fast".
Stability: The so-called "will want to take it, must first be with it", one of the strategies taken by Sun Xiu is to stabilize Sun Lin, because he has just ascended the throne and is not ready, so he does not fight grass and snakes. He praised and rewarded Sun Lin many times, because he did not receive Gifts from Sun Lin, and after angering Sun Lin, he immediately showed weakness and handed over the informer to Sun Lin for disposal. In Sun Qi's eyes, these actions were nothing more than a cowardly monarch like a lamb offering his courtesy in order to save his life and throne. As everyone knows, these are just the tactics of Sun Xiu's arrogant soldiers. In contrast, Sun Liang is too tender, he is always sharp, so that Sun Lin is always wary.
Zhun: The helper Sun Xiu is looking for is a powerful figure in the military, not as unreliable as Sun Liang's finding the old man to plot things.
Quick: Sun Xiu knew that this matter could not be delayed, otherwise he would become the second young emperor. He said to do it, not to drag mud and water, and the result was a success. The Sun clan relatives who had been harming the Eastern Wu Dynasty for more than ten years were smoothly resolved in this way.
After killing Sun Lin, Sun Xiu, in order to win over the courtiers, rehabilitated Zhuge Ke, Teng Yin, Lü Zhao, and others, and recalled all the members of the Shi clan implicated in this to Jianye. At the same time, he did not ask any questions about following Sun Lin's subordinates, and did not expand the scope of the attack.
After this move, the Eastern Wu Dynasty Hall had a new atmosphere.
