Cao Huan
Wang Ye continued serving under the Jin dynasty (266–420), which replaced the Cao Wei state after Sima Zhao's son, Sima Yan, usurped the throne from the last Wei emperor Cao Huan. In the early years of Sima Yan's reign, Wang Ye was promoted to Central Protector of the Army (中護軍). In 271, Sima Yan appointed him and Sima Gui (司馬珪) as the Left and Right Supervisors of the Masters of Writing respectively.
