    I am Emperor Wu of Jin, I was a grandson of Sima Yi, nephew of Sima Shi and son of Sima Zhao. I became the first emperor of the Jin dynasty after forcing Cao Huan, last emperor of the state of Cao Wei, to abdicate to him. I reigned from 266 to 290, and after conquering the state of Eastern Wu in 280, I was the emperor of a reunified China. Emperor Wu was also known for my extravagance and sensuality, especially after the unification of China; legends boasted of my incredible potency among ten thousand concubines.
