Wang Su was a very discerning person, and it was precisely because he saw that Sima Zhao had great potential and would do something in the future, so he married his beloved daughter Wang Yuanji to him, and the facts proved that Wang Su was right. Several of Wang Yuanji's brothers were also very famous, and Wang Kai, who later fought with Shi Chongfu, was her brother.

She behaved rigorously and was a model of harem behavior; She also taught her son to be generous, assisted her son Sima Yan to become the founding emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the mother-son relationship was very good.

So he insisted on keeping filial piety for three years, eating vegetarian food for three years, and thanking his mother for her teachings, which was very rare among the royal families of successive dynasties.

Whose wife Wang Yuanji is
Wang Yuanji is the wife of the protagonist Sima Zhao in the famous "Sima Zhao's Heart Road Known to Everyone", and the mother of Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, and is a famous empress in history.
Wang Yuanji's father, Wang Su, was a general of Cao Wei, and at that time the Cao Wei regime was no longer as strong as it was when Cao Pi was in power, the imperial power declined, and the emperor was cowardly and incompetent. Wang Su saw that Sima Zhao was a talent and would definitely do something in the future, so he married his most beloved daughter Wang Yuanji to him, and sure enough, Wang Su was very discerning. Sima Zhao did indeed become a powerful general, and his son eventually replaced Cao Wei to establish the Western Jin Dynasty, and Wang Su's daughter also became the empress dowager.
Although "Sima Zhao's heart is well known to everyone" is an antonym, Sima Zhao himself is actually a very talented person, otherwise Wang Su would not have looked at him. When Sima Zhao was young, he benefited the official for one term, and he changed the extravagant style of the Cao Wei period and exempted him from many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which the people praised. Moreover, Sima Zhao was still a great military genius, he made great contributions to Cao Wei's attack on the Shu state outside the country, and made great contributions to the later Western Jin Dynasty to unify the whole country and end the situation of the three kingdoms.
At that time, the Cao Wei regime was corrupt, the people were deeply affected, and the emperor was weak and indecisive, and the power was bound to fall into the hands of capable ministers, just like Cao Cao threatened the Han Emperor and blackmailed the Son of Heaven to order the princes, the history was always strikingly similar, Sima Zhao was like Cao Cao in those days. But now Emperor Cao Wei said that Sima Zhao had the intention of usurping the throne and seizing power, which is simply the irony of history.
