Why kill Sima Fang's entire family without any reason?
Do I need a reason to kill your whole family?
Liu Wei remained expressionless, his face full of mockery. "If I had to give a reason, it would be that when your Sima family entered my tent, why did you step in with your left foot first?"
puff!
Sima Fang nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Is this what you call a reason?
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have listened to Sima Yi and gone to join Liu Wei.
"King of the Clouds, how could you be so cruel?"
Suffering this undeserved calamity, Sima Yi and others cried out in protest, "You killed our entire family, how can the scholars of the world submit to you?"
"Hmph, I am accumulating merit! Your Sima family must die!"
Liu Wei waved his hand and said, "Wang Fangyi, why aren't you making a move?"
The fierce guards, without any hesitation, dragged Sima Fang and his nine sons away.
They may never understand why Liu Wei would cause their entire family to become extinct, even until their deaths.
Xun You was so surprised that his mouth was agape the whole time.
He couldn't understand why Liu Wei, who seemed so gentle and refined, would go on a killing spree against the Sima family.
Could it be that the Sima family was involved in poisoning Emperor Ling?
Otherwise, what kind of deep hatred would drive Liu Wei to such a ruthless act?
A short while later, Wang Fangyi's men brought in nine severed heads, which Liu Wei then had to verify.
"Throw these heads out into the wilderness to feed the dogs!" Liu Wei's words were icy cold, as ruthless as could be.
"My lord, what should be done about the Sima family's relatives?"
"Exiled to Liaodong, to be enslaved and slaved, never to return to the Central Plains!"
"Yes, sir!"
Wang Fangyi took the head away aggressively, leaving a strong smell of blood in the tent.
Liu Wei felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders.
The Sima family's betrayal and treachery caused morality to regress by fifty years due to the oath made at the Luo River.
The public assassination of the emperor not only exposed Sima Zhao's true intentions but also trampled on the supreme imperial power.
The Jin Dynasty, later established by the Sima family, was illegitimate in its rise to power, and was subsequently invaded by the Five Barbarian Tribes.
Finally, Liu Yu, a descendant of the Liu family, slaughtered the entire Sima family.
Later generations considered it shameful to have the surname Sima, just as it was shameful to have the character "Hui" in one's given name!
"Wenruo, now that I have settled a matter on my mind, let's have a big drink tonight!"
Seeing Xun You standing there dumbfounded, Liu Wei burst into laughter, overjoyed.
"Report!"
Just as Xun You was puzzled, another scout came to report:
"Your Highness, Commander Yue is outside Xuanmen Pass, fighting alongside Commander Xue and Commander Zhang to defeat the enemy!"
"Lü Bu has been captured, Li Jue, Guo Si, and Fan Chou have died in battle, and Zhang Ji has surrendered!"
"Our army has achieved a great victory!"
Liu Wei clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Great!"
"What a double celebration!"
