As we all know, Sun Quan has 7 sons and 3 daughters, of which the third son and Ben are princes, and the youngest Son Liang is his 62-year-old income, Sun Quan naturally has a special preference for the latter. In addition, Sun Liang has been brilliant since he was a child, and he can judge cases at a few years old, so he is quite favored by Sun Quan. In the thirteenth year of Eastern Wu Chiwu (250 AD), Sun Quan deposed The Crown Prince Sun He, replaced the 8-year-old Sun Liang as crown prince and made Quan Shang's daughter a crown princess.

Two years later, Sun Quan died, and the little emperor was only 10 years old, so he had to issue an edict to let Zhongshu order Sun Hong and Taifu Zhuge Ke to assist him. Sun Hong and Zhuge Ke were suspicious, Sun Ben wanted to take advantage of the death of Emperor Xiandi to get rid of Zhuge Ke in order to monopolize power, who expected the plot to be detected by sun jun, who heard the news, so Zhuge Ke took the first move and cut off Sun Hong. Zhuge Ke was the son of Zhuge Jin, the nephew of Zhuge Liang, the famous minister of the Shu state, who defected to Sun Quan with his father and was known as a "little prodigy".

Sun Quan had set up officials such as school affairs and cha zhan to monitor civilian and military officials, which caused dissatisfaction among the people. After Zhuge Ke took office, he abolished this system, so it was very popular with hundreds of officials. Subsequently, in order to win the hearts and minds of the people, Zhuge Ke implemented various measures such as tax reduction and amnesty for fugitives, all of which were for the sake of the people, and thus won the support of the people.

When the people's livelihood was done well, Zhuge Ke wanted to neutralize the military. Therefore, he ignored the dissuasion of the Manchu ministers and insisted on sending troops to recruit the State of Wei. As a result, the 200,000 troops of Eastern Wu suffered heavy casualties and had to return in ashes. However, Zhuge Ke, who had lost the battle, not only did not reflect on himself, but became more and more arbitrary, causing widespread dissatisfaction in the Manchu Dynasty.

Although Sun Liang was small, he was not willing to be a puppet emperor, so he thought of designing to get rid of Zhuge Ke, and the Wuwei general Sun Jun also wanted to compete with Zhuge Ke for power, so he conspired with Sun Liang and invited Zhuge Ke to a banquet with wine. At the banquet, the ambushed soldiers took the opportunity to kill Zhuge Ke, and Sun Jun became the ruler of the imperial government. Who knew that Sun Jun's poor character not only used his power to rape the palace women and flirt with the princess, but also abused the punishment and killed Zhongliang, which aroused the anger of the courtiers, and they were eager to kill them quickly.
Soon after, Sun Jun fell ill and died, and his cousin Sun Qiang continued to take power. After painstakingly thinking about it, the little emperor deeply felt that he could only accomplish things on his own, so he selected 3,000 people from the sons of the officials to be his own guards, and selected a commander with outstanding talents, stepping up training day by day, secretly plotting to get rid of Sun Qiang.

In September of the third year of the Taiping of Eastern Wu (258 AD), Sun Liang summoned Quan Shang, the general Liu Cheng, and others into the palace to discuss the plan to eliminate adultery. Quan Shang was cowardly and incompetent, and did not dare to act at all, and his wife happened to be Sun Qiao's cousin, so he secretly told Sun Qiao about this matter. Sun Qiang took the lead, the little emperor was removed from the throne and demoted to the position of Huiji King, and Sun Quan's sixth prince Sun Xiu was promoted to emperor. A few years later, the humiliated Sun Liang committed suicide at the age of 18.
