After Sun Quan became emperor, why didn t he posthumously crown his brother Sun Ce as emperor?

Two reasons, firstly, before the Three Kingdoms, there was never a precedent for an emperor posthumously conferring the title of emperor on his brother, and secondly,Sun CeThere is a son, if Sun Ce is posthumously crowned emperor, then this throne should not beSun Quanof.

From ancient times to the present, it is very normal for the emperor to posthumously crown his father as the emperor, and the world can accept this practice, but although Sun Quan's world was taken over from Sun Ce's hands, Sun Quan could not posthumously crown Sun Ce as the emperor, the most important reason is that Sun Ce's family has a child named Sun Shao.

If Sun Ce is crowned emperor, then Sun Shao and Sun Quan both have thronesInheritance

Then at this time, Sun Quan's rights were naturally threatened, although it was difficult for Sun Shao to rebel at that time, but if he moved to usurp the throne after the country stabilized in the future, it would be impossible to prevent itTherefore, not posthumously crowning Sun Ce as emperor will neither leave a legacy for his future, nor will it cause the country to have a potential crisis of turmoil. Based on the cause and effect, it is impossible for Sun Quan to posthumously seal Sun Ce.

Some people will take Sun Quan and Sima Yan.

As a comparison, but in fact, we will know from the fact that Sima Yan was able to posthumously crown his uncle at that time, but it did not cause trouble, the most important reason is that his uncle has no heirs under his knees, so this kind of action will not bring potential danger to himself, but also bring himself a good reputation, so Sima Yan will naturally posthumously seal his uncleThis is different from Sun Quan's situation, so the two people can't be put together to compare each other.

After he claimed that the emperor posthumously crowned his father as the emperor and his brother as the king of Heng, he probably didn't want his nephew to be equivalent to the prince and threaten his son.

If he posthumously crowned his elder brother as his younger brother, then Sun Ce's son would be able to inherit the throne justifiably, and he might be overthrown.

felt that Sun Quan might have done this to preserve his position. If his elder brother Sun Ce is also the emperor, he may cause a certain deterrent to his momentum.

If Sun Ce is posthumously crowned emperor, Sun Ce's descendants will also become princes, and he is afraid that he will compete with his son for the throne.

If his brother is posthumously crowned emperor, his brother's son will be able to inherit the throne in the name of justice, and he will be more likely to be overthrown.

I think Sun Quan may be out of protection for his own throne, but if he does this, his reputation is really bad.

I don't think it's necessary, because Sun Quan was also very capable at that time, and there was no need to chase the seal.

In 195 AD, Sun Ce crossed the Yangtze River east and defeated Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou; In 196 AD, Sun Ce attacked Wang Lang and Yan Baihu and pacified Huiji; In 197 AD, Sun Ce broke with Yuan Shu and was appointed by the imperial court to be the chief inspector; In 198 AD, Sun Ce was named Marquis of Wu; In 199 AD, Sun Ce defeated Liu Xun and occupied the Lujiang River; In 200 AD, Sun Ce won Yuzhang County and officially unified Jiangdong. Among the entrepreneurs of Wei, Shu and Wu, Sun Ce is the youngest one, and he is also the fastest growing one.

From a certain point of view, the country of Soochow was laid by Sun Ce, because Sun Quan has been in charge for more than 50 years, and the territory of Soochow has not changed much. What is puzzling is that in 229 AD, after Sun Quan was proclaimed emperor, he only posthumously crowned his brother Sun Ce as king, not emperor. In contrast, after Sima Yan became emperor, not only did he posthumously crown his father Sima Zhao as emperor, but even his father's brother Sima Shi was posthumously crowned emperor.

Before his death, Sun Ce handed Jiangdong over to Sun Quan instead of his own son. So, why did Sun Quan posthumously crown him king, not emperor?

Before Eastern Wu, there was no example of posthumously crowning his brother as emperor in history, so Sun Quan had no object to learn from. During the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang posthumously crowned his second brother Liu Zhong as the acting king, and his younger brother Liu Jiao as the king of Chu; During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu posthumously crowned his brother Liu Yan as the king of Qi, and in Liu Xiu's entrepreneurial process, Liu Yan's merits were extremely high, compared to Sun Ce's treatment of Eastern Wu, it was only a lot more. Since the previous hundreds of years were crowned kings, there was nothing wrong with Sun Quan posthumously crowning Sun Ce as the "king".

Sun Ce died young, only 26 years old when he died, and while handing over Soochow to Sun Quan, there were also a number of capable people left to Sun Quan, such as Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others. At that time, Sun Quan was young, and many political affairs of Eastern Wu depended on these people, but by 229 AD, he was proclaimed emperor, 30 years after Sun Ce's death, and most of the figures in Sun Ce's era had already died, and their influence on the Eastern Wu regime was minimal. Therefore, Sun Quan would not have made Sun Ce emperor because he had compromised his power.

Besides, Sun Ce has a son, and Sun Quan also has a son, if Sun Quan posthumously crowns Sun Ce as the emperor, will Sun Ce and his family have illusions, and he is also qualified to sit on the dragon chair? Or will some careerists use Sun Ce's family to do bad things? If Sun Ce is posthumously crowned emperor, it may also leave hidden dangers to the inheritance of the Eastern Wu regime, is it also legal to represent the end of the brother?

After Sun Quan's death, was Jiangdong inherited by his two younger brothers?

Although Sun Quan only posthumously crowned Sun Ce as the king, he was still good to his descendants, and through a series of marriages, Sun Ce's descendants still maintained their honor. Although in the later period of Sun Quan, the clan was in chaos, but Sun Ce's family was unharmed, and when Sun Hao was later killed, Sun Quan had been dead for many years. If Sun Quanzun's brother Sun Ce is the emperor, Sun Ce's son will not be able to escape the changes in the second palace.

Because Sun Quan's Eastern Wu had not yet unified the world at that time, the posthumous title of "emperor" would be ridiculed by the people of the world, and it was easy to dare to seal it, that is, it was clear that he did not recognize the Han Dynasty, and if he wanted to usurp the throne and seize power, he would be attacked by people.

If Sun Ce is posthumously crowned emperor, his children will be the rightful heirs to the throne, and they will be able to compete with Sun Quan's descendants for the throne. Therefore, Sun Quan could only posthumously crown Sun Ce as king.

Because Sun Ce is his elder brother, if he is posthumously crowned as the emperor, Sun Quan himself will not be rightly named, so he can only be posthumously crowned as the king

There was no precedent for posthumously crowning his brother as the emperor before, and with the fact that things are right and wrong, there are not many people in Sun Ce's family. Sun Quan still posthumously crowned Sun Ce as the "king", and there is nothing wrong with it.
