What anecdotes and allusions are there in Sima Yao?
Sima Yao was made King Huiji at the age of four, and was made Crown Prince on the eve of Jian Wendi's death in 372, at the age of 1 1. Originally assisting Huan Wen, Huan Wen died in 373 and was appointed by the empress dowager from Sao Chongde. In 376, the Empress Dowager returned to power, and the real power was in the hands of the Xie family in Chen County, represented by Xie An. In 383, with the help of Xie An and others, he defeated the former Qin army and won the battle of Feishui, which saved the national luck of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Sima Yao took advantage of the talent gap of the gentry, broke through the political structure of the gentry, and restored the imperial power of Sima, so he replaced Xie An with his younger brother Sima Daozi and became the most powerful monarch in the Eastern Jin Dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China. However, he indulged in pleasure and debauchery, contending with Sima Daozi for power and profit, forming a situation of "the Lord and the Lord are at loggerheads", which led to the increasingly dim state affairs. Later, because Sima Yao was joking with his favorite Zhang Guiren after drinking, Zhang Guiren killed him in a rage at the age of 35. After his death, Emperor Xiaowu was buried in Long Ping Ling.
Sima Yao was good at calligraphy and literature. He wrote two volumes and died. Chunhua Pavilion Post includes his calligraphy work Wang Qiao Post.
According to historical records, Sima Yao's birth is quite miraculous. There are different versions of this statement. The Book of Jin records that Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, was in his forties, his son Sima Daosheng was deposed, Sima Yu also died, and all his other sons died early. So he was in a hurry and tried his best to have a son. Finally, the fortune teller was asked to visit the concubines. As a result, the fortuneteller took a fancy to Li Lingrong, a tanned handmaid, and Sima Yu asked her to be a maid. Li Lingrong dreamed of Ssangyong's pillow countless times and fell into his arms day by day. Later, I really gave birth to the Sima Yao brothers and Poyang princess royal. It is said that on the eve of Sima Yao's birth, Li Lingrong dreamed that a fairy said to her when she was pregnant, "You gave birth to a man with a long life." When the east is clear in the delivery, Chang Ming is a word. Sima Yu once saw the prophecy of "golden prosperity". When Sima Yao was born, he really took longevity as the word, and he couldn't help crying and said, "I didn't expect our Sima family's prosperity to be like this!"
"Taiping Jing" records a Taoist named Puyang, and Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, once asked him to be the heir. In the middle of the night, the yellow gas started from the southwest and fell far into the room. Then Li Lingrong became pregnant with Sima Yao.
It is recorded in Zhen Ming Grant, Volume 8 of Zhen Yan Patent, that on June 23rd, the fifth year of the Heiping Dynasty (36 1), when Sima Yu sought an heir, four real people in a row bowed down, among them, Mrs. Wei Zifu said: "The shadow is subtle and feels exquisite. Wash luxury and pay attention to Debike Chang. " Later, the name "Yao" and the word "Changming" were found in his wife's poems.
After Sima Yu died in Jian Wendi, eleven-year-old Sima Yao succeeded to the throne. At that time, he was still mourning for Jian Wendi, but Sima Yao didn't cry at night. He told the left and right: "Crying is a habit." Sima Yao said, "There is no greater sorrow than dying in your heart, so you will naturally cry. How can there be any convention! "
