Chapter 1221: Dayu gives way
"They are all people with means, let alone be so pure and noble. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Tang Yi frowned, "Of course, it may be that I can't understand that kind of nobility." ”
"For example, Shun killed gun. Although Kun is indeed at fault, Kun is Yu's father after all. ”
Why did Shun kill Kun? Water control will not work. After he died, his son Dayu continued to control the water, passed the door of the house three times without entering, and finally succeeded.
But what about later generations, there are also other opinions, such as in "Lisao", it is said that "Kun Wan will die directly". This means that he was convicted because of his uprightness. In this way, Shun is a tyrant, of course, it is impossible to have leadership, but at least he has a violent temper.
However, this kind of ancient history really has no conclusive historical materials, and various documents are full of contradictions, so they can only be inferred by themselves, so Tang Yi said to the two of them, listen to the story. Well, important things to say again.
"The revenge of killing my father is not shared. But Dayu still respects Shun very much, even after he ascended to the throne, there is no unfavorable words for Shun. ”
"It's so noble! But is it really because of nobility? At the very least, can it be understood in this way, if Shun is a tyrant, or that Shun has a problem, then Dayu, the successor, has not become the chosen tyrant? From this point alone, in order to take over the throne in order to justifiably, Dayu must continue to provide for Shun, even if Shun is dead. What's more, Shun was selected by Yao again, and he has been in power for so many years, and his status and prestige are very stable. ”
"He took the throne and power so seriously, and it should not have been his intention to give it to outsiders after his death. However, the Zen concession system cannot be changed casually, and he himself cannot abolish it with his own hands because of the Zen concession position. ”
The first successor chosen by Dayu was not Boyi, but Boyi's father Gaotao.
Gao Tao this person, originally as famous as Dayu, Yao, Shun, Yu, Gao Tao, by later generations called the "four saints of antiquity", it can be seen. Moreover, Gaotao is also promoted as the originator of Chinese justice.
But Gao Tao is too old! It is even said that Gao Tao is older than Dayu, he began to work during the Yao Shun period, and he was also one of the powerful people who helped Dayu ascend to the throne.
Thinking deeply, what do you want to do by appointing a successor of this age? At the same time, looking back on the surface, the choice of Gaotao, in addition to being old, there is no problem, it is indeed both ability and political integrity, and the credit is also great.
Sure enough, everything developed according to normal laws, and Gaotao died in front of Dayu.
Since this is the case, then choose another one, people of such an age can choose, and the choice is still relatively wide.
But Dayu chose Gaotao's son Boyi.
Boyi is also a virtuous person, and he also has merit. However, in some historical documents, it is said that Boyi is commented: "Yizhi Zuoyu is shallow, and the world is not negotiated", which means that you have followed Dayu for too short a time, in other words, the credit is too little, and the people don't buy your account.
"I don't think it's really the most important thing, it's the most important thing, this position. The position of this successor, Lao Tzu died, and his son took over. What is this? This shows that the successor is inherited! I guess Dayu is already making something. ”
I don't know what people at that time could figure out from this. But by the Warring States period, Mencius summed it up. He said that Yao Shun Chan let go, which is quite reasonable, why? Because Yao's son Danzhu and Shun's son Shangjun are both "unscrupulous". Therefore, it is best for Zen to be given to other virtuous people.
But Qi is different, "Qi Xian, can respect the way of inheriting Yu". Qixian, Tang Yi smiled when he said this, mainly because he thought of a musician now.
Moreover, there are also documents that say that even if it is "unscrupulous", Yao Shun still had the idea of passing on the throne to his son back then, but he was opposed by the important ministers around him and the leaders of the major tribes, and finally it did not succeed.
But Dayu is very clever in his means. He first laid the groundwork and laid the groundwork, and at the same time worked hard to cultivate Qi in terms of strength, supplemented by human and financial resources.
For example, "Han Feizi" said that before Dayu died, he would pass the throne to Boyi. However, Qi's people were unwilling, and in the end they found a way to kill Boyi so that Qi could take the position.
This shows that Qi already has its own interest group. At that time, the so-called throne was actually the leader of a tribal alliance, and after Qi established the Xia Dynasty, it was the real throne.
And "Warring States Policy" is more straightforward, when Dayu was alive, he claimed that his successor was Boyi, but he was not given much power, and at the same time let his son Qi sit in a position of real power. When he was dying, he said again, my son Qi is "not enough to be the world", Boyi, you can do it!
Boyi ascended to the vacant position, and the result was "Qi and the branch party attacked and won the world"! And there is a comment here: Yu's name is spread all over the world, in fact, Ling Qi takes it from himself!
"High, really high! I was in the position because of the Zen concession system, but my son was not! Moreover, isn't the position of successor also the son who took over from Lao Tzu? So what's wrong with my son taking my seat? Boyi has taken the position, but he can't do it, why can't he abdicate again? As for whether it is dead or alive, they have all abdicated, who dares to care? Wen Jia couldn't help but say a word for Dayu in the story at this time.
Tang Yi smiled, "If Yu didn't want Qi to take the position, he would have arranged it for Boyi a long time ago, and at the same time didn't let Qi organize forces, Qi shouldn't have a chance." ”
After Qi ascended the throne, he established the first dynasty with a hereditary system in China. From now on, there is no Zen concession, no one can think about it, this son, only my son can sit in the future! From then on, until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the throne of the king has always been hereditary!
"Although the father-son relationship between Gaotao and Boyi is controversial, even if it is not father and son, what you say is very reasonable!" Gao Taiming nodded, "The surname of the king of the Xia Dynasty is Hi, although the Dayu era was already a patrilineal society, but some tribes still retain some matrilineal clan lifestyles. The establishment of this hereditary dynasty of the Xia Dynasty marked the complete end of the matrilineal clan. ”
"Lao Gao, I found you very interesting, I'm here to listen to the story, you have made academics!" At this time, he had already walked out of the scenic spot, and Wen Jia sighed again when he beckoned to call a car, "Alas, after listening to the story, I want to run for nothing again!" I didn't sleep well last night, and I mostly made up for sleep in the afternoon. ”
After going back to the hotel and having lunch, the three of them didn't go out in the afternoon, and they rested in their rooms.
Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Tang Yi was about to go out and ask them to go out for dinner, when suddenly the phone rang.
Take it out and take a look, it's actually the number of the old soup that has just been saved!
Tang Yi answered, and a burst of laughter came from the earpiece, "Little brother, are you still in Shaozhou?" ”
