Emperor Huai of Jin

And though he didn't know it at the time, he'd be the penultimate one as well.

He was posthumously known as Jin Emperor Huai.

His life story would have made quite an interesting movie.

Qin Emperor Huai was born in 284 to one of the lower-ranking concubines of Emperor Wu, so that made him low on the pecking order.

So this meant by the time he was reaching adulthood, the dynasty was already in disarray and the northern borders were more or less undefended.

Sensing this instability throughout the Jin Empire, many kingdoms started popping up all over the north, governed by these many northern frontier tribes, some of which who had been fairly sinicized over the period of the Three Kingdoms.

They had to flee, and the only direction that made sense was as far away from Liu Cong and the invading Han Zhao soldiers as possible.

What followed was the May of 311 disaster at Yongjia.
