In 291, Jia Nanfeng sent people to rush into Yang's mansion and pull Yang Jun, the empress dowager's father, out of the stable and execute them, destroying the three clans. Yang Jun was in a high position and controlled the soldiers and horses of the Beijing Division, but he did not have the ability to "decide", and he lost to Jia Nanfeng and lost his family's lives.
Yang Jun, born in Hongnong Yang, is the father of Empress Yang (Yang Zhi). In 274, Empress Yang Yan was seriously ill, and she took the hand of Emperor Wu of Jin: "Yang Zhi is my cousin, you treat her well and canonize her as the empress." ”
Yang Zhi became the queen, and Yang Jun became the "national abbot" with a prominent status. It's a pity that Yang Jun is incapable, and he wants to monopolize power, and despises Jia Nanfeng, which finally caused a catastrophe.
Jia Nanfeng, Sima Zhen's crown princess, Sima Yan's daughter-in-law. Jia Nanfeng is ugly and vicious, but he is very interested in government politics, which conflicts with Yang Jun.
In 276, Jia Nanfeng killed a pregnant palace maid, and Emperor Wu of Jin was very annoyed and planned to depose her. Yang Zhi pleaded: "Jia Nanfeng is still young and ignorant, so Your Majesty will spare her once." ”
Yang Zhi came forward, and Jia Nanfeng escaped, but she didn't know the inside story, and thought that Yang Zhi framed her. Yang Zhi usually "reminds" Jia Nanfeng in the tone of "mother-in-law", asking her to restrain a little, and Jia Nanfeng holds a grudge.
In 290, Emperor Wu of Jin was dying, and he knew that Yang Jun was weak and could not take on the heavy responsibility of entrusting orphans alone. For this reason, Emperor Wu of Jin asked Zhongshu Province to prepare an "edict" and invited Sima Liang, the king of Runan, to let him enter the palace quickly.
In order to monopolize the government, Yang Jun arranged for Zhongshu Province to delay the issuance of the "edict", and sent his confidant Zhang Shao to lead troops to capture Sima Liang, wanting to execute him. When Sima Liang learned that the situation was not good, he hurriedly left the Beijing Division, and Yang Jun did not chase after him.
Emperor Wu of Jin died, and only Yang Jun was by his side, and he should have become an auxiliary minister. At this time, Yang Jun was holding the emperor's "jade seal", and his daughter Yang Zhi was the queen mother, Yang Jun was carried away by the victory, and he wanted to monopolize the government.
Sima Zhen was "stupid", stupid, and the power of the government fell into the hands of Yang Jun. Jia Nanfeng is the queen, but she has no power, and she has a lot of opinions about Yang Jun. Yang Zhi is not Sima Zhen's mother, and Yang Jun is not his grandfather, so why let them hold power.
Jia Nanfeng has ambition and strategy, she decided to clean up Yang Jun and turn over to be the master. At this time, the soldiers and horses in the capital were in the hands of Yang Jun, and the "three brothers" of Yang Jun, Yang Jue, and Yang Ji were the masters of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Jia Nanfeng could only "outwit".
After Jia Chong's death, the Jia clan had no elite, and Yang Jun did not take Jia Nanfeng in his eyes at all. Besides, Yang Zhi is still Jia Nanfeng's "mother-in-law", as long as she coughs, it is enough to make Jia Nanfeng tremble, Yang Jun is so confident.
It's a pity that Yang Jun was wrong, Jia Nanfeng is not good at stubble, and he is only strong on the surface. Yang Jun's weakness, in addition to the lack of "decisive" courage, the key is that the "family rank" is too low, and he cannot get the support of the family, and the foundation is not stable.
Yang Jun seemed to know nothing about his weaknesses, and after taking power, he had no one in his eyes, and often reprimanded his colleagues, offending Li Zhao and Meng Guan in the service, so that Jia Nanfeng had an opportunity.
Li Zhao and Meng Guan had a low status, but they were able to get close to the emperor, which was convenient for "overbearing". Jia Nanfeng seized the opportunity and secretly sent people to contact Li Zhao and Meng Guan and give them rich rewards, hoping to join forces to get rid of Yang Jun.
Meng Guan and Li Zhao suggested: "Yang Jun has the soldiers and horses of the Beijing division, and if he wants to win, he must invite the princes to Beijing." ”
Jia Nanfeng felt that it made sense, so he wrote to Sima Liang, the king of Runan, and Sima Wei, the king of Chu, hoping to get support. The princes of the Sima family were squeezed out by Yang Jun everywhere, and they could not participate in the government politics, and they were ten thousand dissatisfied in their hearts.
Sima Wei was young and vigorous, expressed his support for Jia Nanfeng on the spot, and played the emperor: "I hope to enter Beijing and catch up with my brother." Yang Jun was ignorant and wanted to take this opportunity to control Sima Wei, so he agreed to let him enter Beijing.
After Sima Wei entered Beijing, he immediately contacted Jia Nanfeng to discuss a plan of action. Meng Guan and Li Zhao broke into Sima Zhen's bedroom overnight, and pulled the emperor up with Jia Nanfeng: "Yang Jun rebelled, hurry up and write an edict, transfer troops and horses to King Qin, and arrest the thief." ”
Sima was ignorant and was so pulled by everyone that he could only write an edict according to the "draft" to announce Yang Jun's rebellion. Sima Kun and the others immediately mobilized troops, joined forces with Sima Wei, and killed Yang Jun's mansion, preparing to arrest people.
Jia Nan was resolute, but there were not many soldiers who supported them, and if Yang Jun was "decisive" enough, he could easily pacify this group of thieves. It's a pity that Yang Jun was too weak, dropped the chain at the critical moment, and became a loser.
Strategist Zhu Zhen suggested: "You should burn Longyun Gate, demonstrate to them, and then send troops and horses, surround the palace, and let them hand over the thieves, then the big thing will be done." ”
There are about 9,000 soldiers and horses that the Yang Jun brothers can draw, which is enough to wipe out the strength of Jia Nanfeng, Sima Wei, and Sima Kun in the capital. Unfortunately, Yang Jun compromised and did not adopt Zhu Zhen's suggestion on the grounds that Longyunmen was a "cultural relic".
Yang Jun was incompetent, his subordinates fled, and the soldiers who supported him also collapsed. Sima Kun led his troops to rush into Yang's mansion, and Yang Jun fled to the stable to hide, but was pulled out by the Jin army, beaten to death with sticks, and exterminated. Yang Jun's cronies such as Yang Jue, Yang Ji, Zhang Shao, Li Bin, Duan Guang, Wu Mao, Yang Miao, Jiang Jun, and Wen Yang were also wiped out.
Empress Dowager Yang was not spared, Jia Nanfeng sent someone to imprison her and starve to death. In this regard, Yang Zhi regretted that he was not at the beginning, if he hadn't stopped Emperor Wu of Jin and abolished Jia Nanfeng, there would be no difficulties today.
