Chapter 345 Deposing King Jin
The news of Fu Jian's attack on Qiu Chi spread to Jiankang, and the ministers in the court discussed it a lot. Qin State just defeated Yan State, and now it is going to attack Qiu Chi again. The fighting is so intensive.

Some people suggested strengthening the military defense, increasing the military pay for the soldiers in the northern frontier, and supplying sufficient food and grass to prepare for the sudden attack of Qin.

These suggestions were all rejected by Huan Wen. The more he looked at King Jin, the more he found it an eyesore, and he just wanted to find a reason to abolish the emperor.

When most of the courtiers were still paying attention to the battle of Qiuchi, Huan Wen suddenly abolished King Jin and replaced Sima Yu, king of Kuaiji, as King of Jin.

All this happened suddenly, which caught many people off guard, and before they had time to object, the dust had already settled.

Jin Wang Sima Yi did not do anything wrong during his reign. He was mediocre, with a mediocre character and no ambitions, so he was the best puppet.

But from the day he registered, Huan Wen didn't like him. He didn't know what had triggered the limit of Huan Wen's patience, so he finally got rid of Sima Yi.

The reason for the abolition was that Sima Yi was as good as Long Yang, loved male pets, and had no heirs.Huan Wen said that Sima Yi's current children are all children of his male favourites, and none of them have royal blood.

No matter how absurd this statement is, no one dares to question Huan Wen.This is the power of power, right and wrong are not important, the words of those in power are the truth.

On the day when Sima Yi left the palace, the weather was not too cold, and Liu Heng, the servant of Sanqi, led a small group of soldiers into the palace to collect the imperial seal.

Sima Yi sat on the dragon chair. This was the last time he sat on the dragon chair. The golden palace in front of him was shining brightly. This is where the power of the Jin Kingdom lies.

He has sat on this dragon chair for many years, but he has never had power for a day. He is like a marionette, who appeared on the stage due to accidental reasons and started to perform.

Everything is involuntary, and it is all controlled by others. Suddenly, the person who lifted the string wanted to change to a new puppet, so he was thrown aside.

Everyone said that he was under one person and above ten thousand people, and his status was extremely honorable, but he had never experienced respect.Those eyes looking at him were both sympathetic and contemptuous.

The court was discussing matters, and the ministers had something to announce, talking about His Majesty, but looking at Huan Wen.Those memorials played all over the country could not reach his hands at all.

He's not a real emperor, he's just a puppet, and this country needs a puppet who doesn't speak, who doesn't take the initiative to sit in that position.

Leaving this position, he felt both regret and relief. He didn't envy Sima Yu who was about to ascend to the throne of God. Sima Yu was just another puppet.

Huan Wen did not claim to be king or emperor, but everyone knew that he was the one who really had power.

Liu Heng got the imperial seal, stepped forward and said to Sima Yi: "Your Majesty, let's go, you have to leave the palace!"

Sima Yi sneered and said, "I am no longer Your Majesty, I am now the King of the Eastern Sea again."

Sima Yi, dressed in unlined clothing, walked out of the Golden Luan Hall slowly.Xie An knelt aside and respectfully sent Sima Yi off, saying, "Please take care of yourself, King of the East China Sea!"

Sima Yi patted Xie An on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for coming to see me off."

Sima Yi went out of the palace, got on an ox cart and went out of the gate of the beast. All the officials knelt outside the gate of the beast to bid farewell. Sima Yi looked out the window, and all the officials cried together.

Sima Yi thought: It seems that I am a good puppet, and there are still many people who want me to sit in that position. My life is worth it. I have enjoyed everything I should enjoy, and I have owned what I should have. Finally, the song is over. The time has come for people to leave.
