Here, Wang Dao sat down and asked about the specific situation of Jin's past life. Wang Dao described Sima Yi's achievements when he started his business and various means of surmise and forbearance, and talked about what Si Mazhao did when he was in the aristocratic township. Jin Mingdi was so ashamed that he buried his face in the bed and said, "If it is fair, Jin will have a long-term recovery" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji)! This is a false statement that belittled Sima's family in ancient times. The Jin Dynasty had strict taboo etiquette, and did not even say the names of ancestors in front of their sons. Pei Songzhi commented in Zhuge Liang Biography: "It is unreasonable to expose the shortcomings of Xuandi and destroy his father." Wang Dao, a gentleman, would persuade Jin Mingdi to imitate the justice of his ancestors. He can't say the fault of Sima Yi and his son. Besides, Sima Yi's father and son were innocent in the incident of Cao Shuang and returning home.
Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, once made a historical comment on the Book of Jin Xuandi Ji, pointing out the contradiction or imbalance of Sima Yi in personality, military affairs and politics. The original text is as follows: Fu Tiandi is big, and Li Yuan is the foundation. When the country is expensive, the head of state comes first. Chaos is impermanent, and it is lucky to rise and fall. Therefore, above the five emperors, living in Wancheng is troublesome; The three kings have come, and they have fun in their worries. Fight for information, interests, size and strength. After Wei's arrest, the three parties fought endlessly and the atmosphere was foggy. Huang Xuan, standing in the sky, should assist his life in time, treat it with words and use it with strength. Choose people as yourself, not as yourself; The unfathomable love, generous and tolerant nature, light and dusty, easy to roll with the times, is a storm. Showing loyalty and treachery, Yan' an is in danger. Seeing that the hero is slightly broken inside, the heroic spirit is strong outside, Gong Sun is in a hundred days, and Meng Da is in surplus. Because the soldiers are moving, there is no plan. Then embrace the west and hold a stalemate with Zhuge. Suppress his soldiers, have no fighting spirit, and leave his daughter, just to vent their anger. The scepter is the door, and you will try your best. Please fight thousands of miles and cheat as a demonstration. Moreover, the people of Qin and Shu are brave and timid, not enemies. Dangerous roads are different, and their work and rest are different, so their benefits are obvious. However, if we return to the closed army and establish a solid base area, we should not dare to fight again. If you are timid and have no motivation to move forward, you will still be afraid of death. If you are a good soldier, you will lose it! Emperor Wendi's world, assisted by Wing Chong, Xuchang and Xiao He Municipal Committee, worshiped China and was very Huo Guang School. Speaking of dedication, Yi Fu Koch. And Ming Di will come to an end, the pillar belongs, leaving two masters who helped the Three Dynasties. As they were entrusted with death, there were no reports of martyrdom. It's good to kill each other when the emperor is outside and the soldiers are inside, and the land is still wet. The best way is to confuse you with yourself. Is the husband's conquest strategy wise in the east and foolish in the west? The heart of aid, why loyalty to chaos? Therefore, Jin Ming hid his face and was ashamed to deceive success; Schleswig-Holstein talked nonsense, laughed and raped and went back to settle down. The ancients said, "If you accumulate goodness for three years and know little, it will be an evil day, and everyone knows it." Not on purpose! Although I live in seclusion, I finally met my descendants. I still steal the bell to cover my ears and ignore everyone; Committed to stealing gold, it is said that the city is invisible. Therefore, it is known that those who are greedy will be far away, and those who love profit will hurt their reputation; If you don't harm yourself and benefit others, you will harm the country and the people and benefit others and yourself. It's easy to do things according to the truth, but it's difficult to do things by moving the back. What's more, with the unsuccessful gold base, is it forced? Although I returned to Doug, I was born with virtue, but before dawn, my position was blocked. I can't compete with myself and I can't fight for it. Although I celebrated the future, I finally went to the north.
Because the History of the Three Kingdoms came from the Jin Dynasty, Chen Shou had to make Sima Yi a just party out of political needs, so Sima Yi's loyalty can't be concluded only by the History of the Three Kingdoms. The above information is for reference only, not a conclusion. Press: Chen Shou's works were written privately, and were considered more authentic than the official Shu Wei at that time. The book does not focus on the Jin Dynasty and the Sima family, nor does it praise the Sima family. Many important contents of Sima activities have not been recorded, and even some contents have been misunderstood and distorted. Chen Shou was generally recognized as an outstanding historian at that time, and outstanding people such as Zhang Hua and Du Yu praised his talent.
Fang: (1) There are few strange festivals, but he is intelligent, broad-minded, knowledgeable and obedient to Confucianism. In the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, there was always a worry about the world. (2) the emperor taboo and lenient, suspicion is more accidental. (3) There is a symbol of a wolf.
Sun Quan: Sima Gong is good at fighting. If he changes, he will persevere.

-Poems describing Sima Yi quoted by later generations in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Heaven and earth opened, and the sun and moon shone again.
When you meet someone, you will be far away.
Will sweep away the filth and return to their hometown.
Eliminate Wan Li, a total of eight famine.
Retire to old age and wait for sin to dance.
-Sima Yi was ordered by Wei Mingdi Cao Rui to go through the customs to discuss Liaodong and pass by his hometown, and sang a song in memory.
There are different records in the Book of Jin and the annals of the Three Kingdoms about the nine-year battle between Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, especially in the stalemate stage. On the overall strategic situation, the records in the two books are consistent, because Sima Yi understood the siege of Qishan and frustrated Zhuge Liang's attempt to seize the grain of Wei State, so that Zhuge Liang finally retired because of the lack of grain. The difference is that Zhuge Liang defeated Guo Huai and Fei Yao in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Han Dynasty and robbed some grain. The Book of Jin records that Zhuge Liang failed to grab grain. The record of this battle in the Spring and Autumn Period of Han Dynasty is contradictory. Fei Yao has been ordered by Sima Yi to stay in Shangguan, unable to fight Guo Huai and Zhuge Liang. In the Book of Jin, Sima Yi rushed to Shangguan to stop Zhuge Liang from grabbing grain successfully, which is the main grain producing area. Zhuge Liang may have defeated Wei Jun near Qishan and grabbed a small amount of food, but it did not affect the food supply of Sima Yi's main force, nor did it change the food shortage of the Shu army. Historical records show that Sima Yi's army relied on food supplies in Longxi. As for the result of the war between the two armies, whether Sima Yi fought Zhuge Liang or not is recorded differently in the two books. Wei Pingzhi said that after Jia Xu and Wei Pingzhi were rescued, they wanted to fight Zhuge Liang, and Sima Yi was forced to be defeated. The Shu army won the first 3,000 troops. (The first one was a small leader, similar to the current squad leader. It can be inferred that Sima Yi lost more than 10,000 troops)
Sima Yi put down the political chaos in Cao Shuang in order to save Cao Wei's regime, keep his promise of entrusting orphans and safeguard Cao Fang's throne, not just for the power of individual groups. First of all, when he gave up his power to go home for illness, Sima Shi and Si Mazhao brothers were middle-level officials in the DPRK, and Sima Shi Group was still very weak. At this time, Sima's authority was far from being established, and Sima's brothers and sisters did not take power or hold important positions after Jiaping's change. In fact, until the main members of Sima Yi Group began to be hit by Cao Shuang's exclusion, Sima Yi was tolerant, as he said to Sun Li, "The last straw". At first, Cao Shuang was autocratic, depriving many powerful nobles of their political status and the honor they sacrificed. Stubbornly waging war against Shu, and so on, these chaotic policies failed to stop Sima Yi, indicating that Cao Shuang did not respect Sima Yi, and later prepared to usurp the throne. It is also obvious that Cao Shuang wants to usurp the throne. His food, clothing, rituals and ostentation and extravagance are almost the same as those of the emperor. The palace was full of imperial vessels. He took Cao Rui talents from the palace to his home, even forged letters, sent 57 talents from the palace to Yecheng, took too many musical instruments without authorization, and prohibited soldiers from entering the armory. Later, Queen Mother Guo was imprisoned in the cold palace and sent cronies to monitor the little emperor. At this time, Sima Yi was the only one who threatened him to usurp the throne. He sent his cronies to watch Sima Yi's movements, while excluding relatives and cronies who attacked Sima Yi, all in preparation for usurping the throne. Empress Dowager Guo, Liu Fang, Sun Zi and other dignitaries of past dynasties were successively deposed by him. Sima Yi was hit by leaving home early and getting sick. In the end, Cao Shuang just disintegrated Sima Yi Group and proclaimed himself emperor and usurped the throne. Sun Li, Lu Yu and others. Being squeezed out one by one, even pointing to Du Shu, a relative of Sima Yi. This was at the end of the ninth year. Later, Lu Yu tried the Cao Shuang partisans and learned that they were going to take actions of rebellion and usurpation within three months. Cao Shuang is not the cowardly waste in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He commanded the army to attack Shu and attacked Sun Li by dictatorship, which was also ambitious. Sima Yi still had the idea of pardoning him, not because Cao Shuang had no evidence of conspiracy to usurp the throne, but mainly because he didn't want to bear the reputation of killing Minister Tuogu. He also knew that Cao Shuang was actually ambitious, and saw that there were contradictions between the clique and the major factions established by Cao Shuang and there was no threat. Moreover, Cao Shuang's plan to usurp the throne was not actually implemented, nor did he abolish the emperor to stand on his own feet. When Jiaping changed, Cao Shuang didn't start a civil war. Finally, Sima Yi once vowed not to chase Cao Shuang. Only in this way did he say that he would be pardoned and given food. However, it can be seen from the sacrificial list that Cao Shuang offended too many people during the dictatorship, and finally the court executed him. Don't think that Sima Yi deposed Cao Shuang just to seize power in person. In fact, it is as simple as Sima Yi and Cao Zhi's struggle for power. Sima Yi Group and most factions participated in the ousting of Cao Shuang. Empress Dowager Guo, Jiang Ji and Gao Rou are all representatives of major factions, and all factions participated in the discussion. At this time, Cao Cao's power as Prime Minister and Gong Wei is much greater than that of Sima Yi, and he still has to be restricted by peace talks. He wanted to resume corporal punishment, but most people opposed the discussion, and Cao Cao could only give up for the time being. Sima Yi couldn't help but accept the discussion. Cao Shuang cracked down on other factions and was finally put to death by them. The Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Shuang, recorded in detail the process of Cao Shuang's disorderly administration, preparing to usurp the throne and being put to death by resolution.
