At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family in Runan, "noble and favored in the world", protégés and former officials all over the world, Yuan Shaowei obeyed Hebei, Yuan Shu crossed Huainan, and the world was instructed. In Huayin County, there is also a big family with deep roots, which can be called the Yuan family together, that is, the Yang family.

The founder of the Yang family was Yang Zhen, the grand duke of the Han Dynasty, and further back, the eighth ancestor Yang Xi was made the Marquis of Chiquan in the early Han Dynasty for pursuing and killing Xiang Yu. Yang Zhen was known as the "Confucius of Kansai" at that time, and had a strong influence in both political circles and literary circles. Yang Zhen's fifth son, yang Bing, was the first son, emperor Huan of Han, who worshiped Tai Wei. Yang Bingzi Yang Ci, the Emperor of Hanling Dynasty, served two terms as Sikong, two Situs, and one Taiwei, and was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Jin. Yang Ci's son was Yang Biao, who was appointed sikong in September of the sixth year of the reign of Emperor Zhongping of han (189 AD), becoming the existence of the "Fourth Emperor and Three Dukes", kong Rong's so-called "Fourth Qingde, Hai Nei Zhan".

In his early years, Yang Biao served as Jingzhao Yin, and the eunuch Wang Fu instructed his subordinates to invade and occupy more than 70 million state-owned property in Jingzhao. In the case of the eunuch at that time, Yang Biao thoroughly investigated the case, and finally Wang Fufu was law-bound, "the world is not afraid."

In the sixth year of Zhongping (189 AD), He Jin was killed, Dong Zhuo entered The capital, and the entire Han Empire entered the era of warlord chaos. During dong zhuo's control of the government and The successive rebellions of Li Dai and Guo Feng, Yang Biao had been with Emperor Xian of Han, and his career had several ups and downs, successively serving as Situ and Tai wei, "defending the lord as a matter of moderation, and being idle in rugged and dangerous situations, almost not sparing harm." In the second year of Xingping (195 AD), Emperor Xian returned to Luo, and then Yanzhou assassin Shi Cao Cao led an army into Beijing, forcing Emperor Xian to move the capital to Yuxu.

At a court meeting, the suspicious Cao Cao felt that Yang Biao's face was not good, suspected that Yang Biao wanted to get rid of himself, just like Wang Yun had killed Dong Zhuo, ran back to his military camp through urine, and on the pretext that Yang Biao and Yuan Shu were in-laws, arrested Yang Biao in prison on trumped-up charges, and tortured him indiscriminately. Later, Yang Biao's son Yang Xiu served as an aide in the Chu Xiang Mansion and was killed by Cao Cao on trumped-up charges.

Yang Xiu, who was killed by Cao Cao, his nephew later took power, and his niece became the empress dowager Yang Biaoquan and fell into the world".

It should be said that the Famous Runan,Yuan clan and Huayin Yang clan at the end of the Han Dynasty both formed a grudge with Cao Cao, so in the final Cao Wei generation, both families appeared very low-key. The difference is that the Yuan clan of Runan, which gradually declined, was overtaken by another branch of the Chen County, yuan, and the Yang clan once again entered the political arena after a period of thirty or forty years of dormancy.

In 266 AD, Wei Cao Wasan was located in Sima Yan and the Jin Dynasty was established. Sima Yan's two empresses, Empress Wuyuan and Empress Wumian, were both from the Yang clan of Huayin, marking the return of the Yang family to politics as an important political force. Empress Wu mourning's father, Yang Junguan (杨君官車車), was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Jin, and his two younger brothers, Yang Jue (杨珧) and Yang Ji (杨吉), both served in the imperial court, and were then called "Three Yangs" (三杨), "the power of the world". In the Battle of Wu in 279, the lieutenant Jia served as the governor of the capital, and Yang Ji became the deputy governor as the champion general.

In 290, Sima Yan died, and the crown prince Sima Zheng took the throne as Emperor Hui. Sima Zheng was the son of Empress Wuyuan, and the current Empress Wuyuan was Empress Wuyuan's cousin and became empress dowager. At this time, most of the founding heroes who followed Sima Yan died, and Yang Jun, as the only minister of his orders, served as a lieutenant and a governor of various Chinese and foreign militaries, and soon after he was promoted to Taifu and Dadu, and took over the power.

Yang Jun's branch was Yang Zhen's younger son Yang Feng, and yang Jun was still the nephew of Yang Xiu, who was killed. However, Yang Jun "has no beautiful hopes", his merits are not the ratio of Cao Cao and Sima Yi, his ability is far inferior to Huo Guang, and his reputation is even worse than that of his ancestor Yang Zhen, the so-called "wood shows in the forest, and the wind will destroy it". Empress Dowager Neiyang was at odds with the powerful Empress Dowager Jia Nanfeng, and on outer Yang Jun," "for the sake of the government, he was self-conscious, and did not allow the hearts of the people", and a conspiracy to overthrow Yang was quietly brewing.

There is a reason why it is called a conspiracy, not the so-called "Kuang Fu Sheji". First of all, although Yang Jun was a mighty man, he was still maintaining the normal operation of the Jin Dynasty, not as ferocious as Dong Zhuo. At that time, there was a person named Pu Qin who offended Yang Jun many times, and everyone was worried about him, and Qu Qin told everyone that although Yang Jun was not a good person, he "knew that people were innocent and could not be killed." Think of Yang Jun's uncle Yang Xiu, as well as Kong Rong and Cui, Yang Jun is not useless, and has not reached the point where it must be eliminated.

Secondly, what was the cause of Jia Nanfeng's conspiracy? "Unwilling to use women to do things with the empress dowager, and wanting to interfere in political affairs, but was suppressed by Taifu Jun", among the participants, the generals Meng Guan and Li Zhao, both of whom were "disrespectful to Jun". However, when Jia Nanfeng sent people to consult with the then patriarchal leader, Sima Yi's fourth son, Sima Liang, the king of The Great Sima Runan, Sima Liang did not support their move.

In March 291, Jia Nanfeng, with the support of some clans and forbidden troops, ordered a crusade against Yang Jun in the name of Emperor Hui of Jin. After Yang Jun took power, he moved into Cao Shuang's mansion at that time, and at the critical juncture, just like Cao Shuang, he was helpless and killed by the rebels. In the ensuing purge, Yang Jun's younger brothers Yang Jue and Yang Ji were beheaded, and his daughter Empress Yang was forced to die by Jia Nanfeng.

Yang Jun's killing was an important political loss for the Yang family in Huayin, and it also opened the prelude to more than ten years of chaos in the Western Jin Dynasty. In July 311, Luoyang was captured by the Xiongnu, Emperor Huai of Jin became a prisoner, and concubines and princesses became enemy playthings, and the degree of tragedy was similar to the later Jingkang Revolution. After that, the northern shi clan crossed south, but the Yang clan may be dissatisfied with the royal family and other families involved in the encirclement and suppression of Yang Jun at that time, and chose to stay in the north, and the family members came out of the regime established by the ethnic minorities.

A few years later, the Huayin Yang family was a large family to look up to throughout the north.
