司马睿

东晋王朝，实际上是王导和司马睿共同掌握的。

Virtually , it was a joint ruling of Sima Rui and Wang Dao in the Eastern Jin govern-ment .

司马睿、王导以全据江南作为立国的首要目标，以统一南北为最终目标，为此贯彻的是先南后北的统一路线。

The objective of Si-Ma Rui and Wang Dao was to build a country in South China firstly and reoccupy North China and unify the whole china as the final object .

司马睿在登基大典上，几次请王导和他一起坐上宝座，接受群臣拜贺，王导谢绝。

Upon the ceremony of ascending the throne , Sima Rui repeatedly invited Wang Dao to sit together with him , which meant the sharing of authority , and was declined by the latter .

公元317年，镇守建康（今江苏南京）的晋宗室司马睿在江南重建晋室，史称东晋。

In 317 , Sima Rui , a member of the Western Jin imperial family stationed in Jiankang ( now Nanjing in Jiangsu ) , restablished the Jin government , which became known as the Eastern Jin .

司马睿称帝有赖于南方官僚士族的拥戴，东晋政权建立之初，先后平息了王敦和苏峻之乱，统治趋于稳定。

Without the support of the southern bureaucrats and gentry-officials , Sima Rui could not have become emperor . The early years of the Eastern Jin saw a stable period after the suppression of Wang Dun and Su Jun.

317年，晋王室的一员——司马睿在建康（今天的江苏省南京）称帝，重建了晋政权，也就是我们所知道的东晋王朝（317——420）。

In 317 , Sima Rui , a member of the Jin royal family stationed in Jiankang ( present city of Nanjing in Jiangsu Province ) , re-established Jin supremacy , through what has become known as the Eastern Jin Dynasty ( 317 - 420 ) .

晋元帝司马睿，司马懿曾孙，袭父封为琅蚜王，都督扬州江南诸军事，由下邳移镇建邺（后又改名建康，今江苏省南京市）。

Sima Rui , the great grandson of Sima Yi , granted as the King of Langya from his father , was in charge of the defense in south of Yangzhou ( now Jiangsu province ) and moved his headquarters from Xiapi to Jianye ( later called Jiankang , now Nanjing City ) .

司马睿十分感激王导，任他为宰相，执掌朝政，让王导的堂兄王敦都督军事，握有重兵，控制军权，其他重要的官职，大多数也由王导家族担任。

Out of gratitude , Wang Dao was assumed the position of the chief Minister in control of the court and Wang Dun , the half brother of Wang Dao , grasped the power of army forces and defense . Besides , other main posts in court were in the hands of Wang 's families as well .
