……
One day, Shun, Empress E, and Nuying, the two concubines, were strolling in the Pingyang Palace to enjoy the flowers, and Sima Wu hurriedly ran to report: "The southern three seedlings are making trouble again, and they have driven away all the state Muqian you sent." ”
Upon hearing this news, Shun was taken aback and walked towards the palace gate of Wu Chao angrily.
Seeing this, the second concubine hurriedly retreated.
Shun's thoughts fluctuated, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
Since the Yellow Emperor started the foundation, the Huaxia and Miao have fought for hundreds of years. Shun inherited the emperor's industry and was entrenched in the Central Plains.
The leaders of the Huaxia tribe are not dead in their ambitions, and they have repeatedly conquered the Miao people, what is the crime of the Miao people? How can the Miao people be submissive when they repeatedly crusade against them, damage their property, and kill their people?
Shun held a "cabinet meeting" in Chaoyang Palace.
The ministers attending the meeting, including the heads of various departments such as Houji, Situ, Gaotao, Gonggong, Yu, Boyi, and Long, unanimously advocated the collection of a large army to conquer the rebellion of the Miao people.
In their view, the conquest of an arrogant and untamed and stubborn nation like Sanmiao is a matter of course and justice.
Situ Qi, who disciplined the people, said: "Sanmiao refuses to obey the king, and there is no forgiveness for killing!"
Gao Tao, who was in charge of punishment, said: "Only by killing the Miao people can the world be peaceful." ”
Na Yanlong, who was in charge of issuing the decree, was even more eloquent: "Huaxia and Sanmiao do not share the sky, and war is inevitable." Otherwise, the scourge of war will spread, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Shun closed his eyes slightly, twisted his beard with his hands, and did not answer.
After pondering for a moment, he said decisively: "My opinions are mainly based on education, supplemented by consultation.
For hundreds of years, wars have been frequent, costing people and money.
We managed to put an end to the war and win peace.
The people have just broken free from the flood, and they are making a big move, which will surely arouse the wrath of the heavens and the resentment of the people, so I decided to personally tour the south, precisely because I am old, so that I want to set an example for future generations to turn hostility into peace. ”
The ministers knew that Shun had made up his mind and would no longer stop him.
So Shun ordered Situ Qi to prepare a large number of pears, hoes, and pottery and woodware, and ordered Sima Wu to recruit 5,000 soldiers and horses to tour the south together.
When they sailed past Yunmengze and had just entered the land of Sanmiao, a violent storm blocked their trip. Emperor Shun had to order his subordinates to moor the ships at the foot of Dongting Mountain in Zezhong, and only wait for the wind and rain to subside before setting off.
Besides, after Emperor Shun's southern tour, Empress E and Nuying were very worried about Shun. Shun is eight years old, led the division to the south, from Pingyang to Miaozhou, thousands of miles away, can he stand this saddle horse fatigue?
Besides, can he still be as brave as he was when he was young?
If Miao Min can't surrender, who will take care of him when he is sick, who will take care of him if he is injured, and if he dies on the way or in battle, Miao Di will ...... They couldn't even think about it.
In the past many years, every time Shun went on an expedition or patrol, Empress E and Nuying always accompanied him like a shadow, never leaving the left and right. They either assisted the husband to strategize, or they were in battle and charged, so they were not affectionate.
Now that the husband is touring the south, leaving them alone and sad, they decide to go south to follow the husband.
In the winter of the forty-second year of Emperor Shun, Empress E's daughter Ying went south to find Emperor Shun after a lot of hardships, and when they arrived at Yunmengze, the storm lifted the lake more than two feet high.
They showed their fear of the wind and waves, strengthened a small boat, and sailed straight to the vast Daze.
When their boat passed by Dongting Mountain, Emperor E saw the totem of the Shundi tribe fluttering on the island, and exclaimed, so he sailed straight to Dongting Mountain with Nuying.
Besides, Emperor Shun has been blocked by the wind and waves in Dongting Mountain for half a month, and he has not yet known how many days it will take for the wind and waves to stop, he is not only worried about burning.
On this day, he stood on the peak of Wanghu Lake and looked sadly at the surface of the lake emptied by the turbid waves, when he suddenly noticed a flash of red light in the direction of Kuguo, and the sky that had been very bright became dim.
He knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly called Bo Chonglai. Chong Qu counted his fingers, and his face changed suddenly.
Emperor Shun asked urgently, and the sorcerer replied: "The emperor's brother is seriously ill and has been anointed. Shun suddenly wept bitterly. was crying, Shun saw the two ladies fighting with the wind and waves in the lake, and hurriedly went to meet them.
The second concubine was helped ashore by the soldiers, and saw Emperor Shun walking towards them with tears in her eyes from a distance, and they threw themselves into the emperor's arms and cried bitterly: "Good husband, we know that you will be safe." ”
The emperor choked: "Madam, you have worked hard. Seeing that the lady came to Emperor Shun's side, the officials were overjoyed, and they hoped that the two ladies could stop Emperor Shun's southern tour.
One day, Bo Chong came to see him again: "According to the report of the southern princes, a monster appeared in Chongshan, with a beast body and a human face, riding two dragons, and they did not know what god it was, so they came to inquire. ”
Di Shun said: "You used to call on the gods to capture all kinds of monsters, of course you can know what gods and monsters are, you guess and see." ”
"There are quite a few gods with beast bodies and human faces and two dragons, but they appear in the direction of the southern cangwu, and they may be here for you. This monster poisons the living beings, and it does not get rid of the suffering of the people. Chong replied.
Emperor Shun was very anxious when he heard this, and he rushed to his wife's residence with a heavy heart. Empress E and Nuying saw that their husband's face was solemn, and they stepped forward to comfort her.
Dimer remained silent, put on a smiling face, took their hands and walked straight to the lake.
The sky was still gloomy, and the violent wind lifted the turbid waves more than two feet high. Tears welled up in the emperor's eyes. Emperor E was puzzled, so he asked, "What is on the husband's mind?"
Shun muttered: "Tomorrow, no matter what the wind and waves are, I have decided to continue the southern tour." ”
Nuying persuaded: "The south is far away, the emperor is high in the spring and autumn, and the current affairs are sinister, so the husband might as well cancel the southern tour." ”
Di Shun said: "My brother is critically ill, and he should go to visit."
Besides, now the demon beast descended on the sky and killed the people. The country of the Three Seedlings was originally chaotic and superstitious about Shinto, and they will step up their rebellion, and I really can't rest assured. ”
Emperor E hid his face and cried: "It's better for the husband to hand over the great government to Bo Yu, why don't you live in seclusion in this Dongting Mountain, and enjoy the love and love with the concubines?"
Emperor Shun shook his head: "Although the great government is handed over to Boyu, I still should fulfill my obligations to the country and the people, and I dare not entrust someone to do everything." Therefore, I had to ignore the personal feelings of my children on this trip. ”
Empress E and Nuying both knelt down: "Husband, let's go on a southern tour with you." ”
Di Shun helped up the two ladies: "The southern barbarian Miao has a sinister temperament, I can't bear to wait for you to go, I leave two small soldiers to protect you and others, and build a hut here, you wait for me here, I will definitely come back safely here to share the joy of family with my wife." ”
The second concubine knew that the emperor had made up her mind, and it was useless to dissuade her, she just cried.
Strange to say, the next day the wind and waves were calm, Emperor Shun led the crowd to board the wooden boat and sailed straight to the Sanmiao country, and Empress E's daughter Ying and Emperor Shun said goodbye with tears.
I didn't expect Emperor Shun to go and not return.
When the second concubine heard the bad news that Emperor Shun had died in battle, she was extremely sad and cried loudly. This cry was extremely miserable, and the two concubines were followed by blood, waving on the bamboo, and the color of the bamboo changed greatly, and the spots were dotted.
