065, the Son of Heaven
This person's situation is similar to when Xiao Jiu fell back into his backyard, his expression was a little dazed, and he struggled to stand up with a blank expression, obviously not knowing where he had fallen. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć At this time, Qingniu had already rushed over and said, "Lord Boyi, why are you?"
Xiao Jiu was also taken aback, and then immediately "recognized" the comer. Although he has not seen Boyi with his own eyes, he has heard Huwa tell the "story", Boyi was the assistant who followed Dayu to control the water, and now his status in the Chinese court is second only to the "false emperor" of the Son of Heaven, how could he be blown here by a gust of wind? Looking at the scene just now, it is clearly like the great magic method that Mr. once used.
After the green cow screamed, the wind and clouds in the sky and the earth stopped, and the sky was clear again. Bo Yi had recognized Qingniu at this moment, and said in surprise: "Qingniu, how did I come here? What is this place, what is going on?"
Qingniu shouted: "I still want to ask you, where were you just now, and how did you come here?"
......
Year after year, the grass and trees wither, there are always countless new births and countless deaths. And this year, three people passed away, one of which was the ancestor of Baoming Kingdom, and Xiao Jiugongzi accompanied him for the last period of time.
And during the three months that Xiao Jiu left the courtyard, a strong man was also lost in the courtyard grange. The white basket was in a daze in the rain, accidentally caught a cold, and after returning to the high fever, he unfortunately died young. Wind and cold were the cause of his death, but according to ancient sayings, he died of depression because he was always worried about Xiaoxia in his heart.
Before Bai Basket died, he told his younger brother about the emotional wounds of his life on the sickbed, and this story has been passed down to future generations. Some people were moved by the depth of his affection, and many, many years later, some people wrote a song for it, called "Mistaken My Life", the lyrics said: "I shouldn't have met you that year......
This song is a lot of moaning, but to some people, it also feels emotional. But at that time, no outsiders paid attention to Bai Basket's lifelong emotional wounds, although Xiao Jiu knew that Bai Basket had a big daydream, but he never made any trouble for him, and Tailuo didn't know it. The white basket unfortunately died early, and Tailuo also sent money and goods to support his family.
The death of the white basket was unheard, at most it was a sad sigh from everyone in the grange. But at the same time, the death of another person shook the world. Dayu, the son of heaven, died near Huiji Mountain on the way out on the tour.
Di Shun and Di Yu both died on the way out, and they were buried in places of great significance to them. Nine doubts mountain, is the starting point of Chonghua's ambitions, Huiji Mountain, is the place where Dayu Dingding China.
In the history of later generations, it is said that Shun died in the "southern tour" and Yu died in the "eastward journey". In fact, these two places were in the south of the land of China in the early years, and Huiji Mountain was more easterly and located in the land of Baiyue. It can also be seen from this statement that from the era of Shun to Yu, the territory of China has been greatly extended to the south, and Huiji Mountain has been called "East".
There is also a difference between Yu and Shun. When Shun died, he had already given up the position of the Son of Heaven to Yu Yu and completed a smooth transition. And Yu was still on the throne of the Son of Heaven when he died, and the heir to the throne was not determined.
The Son of Heaven travels, and the "False Emperor" sits in the imperial capital. In the event that the son of heaven dies unexpectedly, it is the power and responsibility of Boyi to temporarily regent, and to convene the courtiers and the heads of the various ministries to discuss the next son of heaven. Since the death of Lord Gaotao, Boyi was set up as a false emperor by Dayu.
When the mourning news of the Son of Heaven came, some cronies said to Boyi: "Yao Chan is located in Shun, Shun let the emperor Danzhu, and Danzhu is not accepted; Shunchan is located in Yu, Yu makes the emperor Shang Jun, and Shang Jun is not subject to it." Adults have great merit in water control and world governance, and virtue can be matched with the great position of the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven has long wanted to Zen in you, but unfortunately it has not been implemented. You are the regent of the false emperor, and you should succeed to the throne as the Son of Heaven. ā
Dayu has long wanted to give up the Son of Heaven to Boyi, but he didn't have time to do so, is this really the case? This is just the statement of Boyi's cronies, and the most important basis is that Boyi's identity is a fake emperor. If Dayu doesn't want to pass on to Boyi, why should he be made a false emperor?
But this statement does not prove anything, because when Emperor Shun was re-transformed into the Son of Heaven, Gaotao was a false emperor, but in the end it was Dayu who succeeded the Son of Heaven.
Boyi himself was deeply convinced of this statement, and was ready to ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven, but he muttered: "I should show Yu Xia Houqi." ā
Chonghua and Dayu were humble back then, and Boyi felt that he should also take this form, otherwise it would be difficult to show the virtue of the Son of Heaven. And the cronies said: "The Son of Heaven is humble, and that Xia Houqi should not accept it, nor dare to accept it, otherwise he will be abandoned by the world." ā
Boyi immediately held a court meeting to formally exercise the authority of "acting on behalf of the Son of Heaven" and discuss the matter of jointly promoting the Son of Heaven. Of course, Boyi's cronies took the initiative to stand up at the court meeting, praising the merits and benevolence of the Son of Heaven, and believing that Boyi should officially inherit the throne of the Son of Heaven. Bo Yi said: "I should mourn for the first emperor for three years, and after three years, let the Son of Heaven be located in Xia Houqi." ā
The implication is that he recognized this statement, and planned to follow Shun and Yu's previous practice, mourn the first emperor for three years as the Son of Heaven, and then make a statement to give way to Xia Houqi. But Boyi's identity is not the Son of Heaven after all, and this matter cannot be decided by the ministers just at the court meeting, so he took the opportunity to order to convene all the kings of the world to discuss and decide the major event like this.
Unexpectedly, the news reached Xia Houqi, but Xia Houqi didn't buy it, and even directly reprimanded Boyi for trying to usurp the throne in front of all his subordinates, he was not qualified to make this decision at all, and he could not mourn the first emperor on behalf of the world, let alone give way to him Xia Houqi three years later.
Boyi wants to do the old things of Shun and Yu, but his identity is different. When Yao and Shun died, Shun and Yu had been the Son of Heaven for many years, and it was just a homeopathic move to serve three years of mourning and then humbly surrender to the emperor. But Boyi's identity is not yet the Son of Heaven, and he is indeed not qualified to announce such a thing in advance, and such a declaration exposes his intentions.
Boyi in the imperial capital immediately heard the news that Xia Houqi did not follow his orders and came to the imperial capital to participate in the meeting of all the kings of the world. Most of the heads of the various ministries who received the order did not come to the imperial capital, but ran to see Xia Houqi. The heads of the various tribes who were ordered to come to Boyi accounted for only one-tenth and two-hundredth.
Dayu did not specify who would be the next Son of Heaven during his reign, but he was not without an heir. Dayu is not like Bao Mingjun, he only has an only son like Xia Houqi. The forces that supported Dayu back then now also support Xia Houqi, such as Xia Hou, Tu Shan, and Chongchen...... Most of China has this attitude.
Bo Yi miscalculated, and when he heard the news, Xia Houqi had announced his succession to the throne of the Son of Heaven with the support of the heads of various ministries, and led his men and horses to the imperial capital. Xia Houqi did not come to participate in the meeting of the monarchs on the order of Boyi, Boyi decided to abandon the imperial capital and leave, but he took the human emperor seal with him.
The human emperor seal was first left by Taihao, and it was a token of the leaders of the alliance of various Chinese tribes, and later of course it became the identity symbol of the Chinese Son of Heaven, and only the Son of Heaven could be in charge. When Dayu traveled, he left the human emperor seal in the imperial capital, and the regent Boyi took charge of the human emperor seal, and it was unwilling to take it away.
In his opinion, if the Emperor's Seal is not in his hand, even if Xia Houqi becomes the Son of Heaven, it is not so justifiable.
Xia Houqi was furious, and then sent troops to crusade against Boyi, this battle is called the Battle of Gan, Gan of Gan, some people say that it happened in Gandhi, also known as the rebellion of Youhu. There is a grudge between the Ministry and the Ministry of Xiahou, thinking that because of the poor participation in water control, the Ministry was also severely punished by Dayu, and now they support and even instigate Boyi to fight against Xia Houqi.
Xia Houqi's pursuit was a bit hasty, and he only brought his entourage with him, and he failed to win the first battle. Xia Houqi immediately reported his mistakes, and summoned the men and horses of the headquarters and the troops of various departments to gallop to help, and then fought the great destruction of Boyi and the people of the Hu tribe.
Boyi was defeated, was thrown off the chariot in the chaos, and was about to die by the sword soldiers, but there was an inexplicable gust of wind on the battlefield. Bo Yi was swept into the sky, and when he came back to his senses, he fell in front of Qingniu and Xiao Jiu.
Dayu died in the area of Huiji Mountain in southeast China, and Lu Zebu was far away at the junction of Luliang Mountain and Yin Mountain at the edge of the river flood, and the news came after several months. At this time, it happened that Xiao Jiu returned to Baoming Kingdom, and Baoming Kingdom was more remote, and he was in such a chaotic situation at that time, and he had never heard of the Chinese Son of Heaven at all.
After figuring out where he came, he saw Qingniu and Xiao Jiu again, and asked about the origin of Xiao Jiu and Huwa, Boyi realized that it should be Huwa who saved his life from the chaos.
Listening to Boyi introduce where he came from and why he is like this, Qingniu was also dumbfounded. Living in seclusion in the mountains to cultivate, I didn't expect such a big thing to happen in the world. Xiao Jiu and Tailuo don't know what to say, whether it's commenting on Boyi or Xia Houqi, many words are not easy for them to speak.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a person in the mountains and forests speak: "Lord Boyi, I have already advised you, why do you have to do this?" Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Ziqiu who came over.
Ziqiu, as the Bojun of the Jiqiu Department and the Lord of the Jiqiu Clan in China, rushed to the imperial capital to persuade Boyi, but Boyi did not listen to his persuasion. Today, Boyi was taken here by Huwa from the defeated chaotic army with the great mana of the immortal family, Ziqiu seemed to have expected it for a long time, and was already waiting here.
Xiao Jiu hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Mr. Ziqiu, why are you here too?"
If Xiao Jiu is called "Mr.", he will refer to the tiger baby, and for Ziqiu, he will deliberately add his name. Ziqiu pointed at Boyi and Xiao Jiudao: "I am here for him, and I am also here for you." Tiger King asked you to stay here to practice back then, and said that there will be things to trust in the future, referring to today's things. ā
Xiao Jiu asked, "What is going on today, what does Mr. want me to do?"
Ziqiu: "Let's talk about him first, and then talk about yours." Then he turned to Boyi and said, "You haven't answered my question yet, why is this so, why is it so?"
After all, Boyi's cultivation is not bad, and he has deliberately tidied up his appearance at this moment, the blood stains on his body are gone, and his hair is no longer scattered, except for a few tears in his clothes, and there is no trace of embarrassment on the surface. He saluted Ziqiu back and said, "I'm just unwilling. ā
Almost no one can explain this matter clearly, even after another thousand years, the descendants of the past generations will not be able to explain it clearly, anyway, each has its own reason. And the word "unwilling" almost expresses all of Boyi's feelings.
Boyi was born when Yao was the Son of Heaven, and after three generations of Yao, Shun, and Yu, it was also the period of the fastest development and expansion, turbulence and change in the Chinese Empire. The change of the Son of Heaven that he witnessed is not from father to son, Yao Chan is located in Shun, Shun Chan is located in Yu, all because Chonghua and Dayu have the merit of governing the world and are supported by all departments.
Boyi, as the most important assistant of Dayu to control the water, also thinks that he has made great contributions, and the heads of the ministries should also support and support him, plus he has been a false emperor for so many years, and he has been regent many times when the Son of Heaven travels, and it is even more logical to succeed the Son of Heaven.
Boyi has long regarded himself as the next son of heaven in his heart, but it backfired, of course, he was unwilling. In Boyi's view, this is simply a denial of his entire life.
Ziqiu shook his head and asked: "Xuanyuan Chan is located in Shaohao, and Di Yao is the son of Emperor Jun, are you unwilling? Emperor Shun once gave way to Danzhu, and Emperor Yu once gave way to Shang Jun, if the son cannot inherit his father's throne, why should they be like this? If you want to compare the Danzhu and Shang Jun of Xia Hou Qi, but you don't know that you are not Shun and Yu, so you have today's difficulties!"
Ziqiu's words actually unveiled a layer of illusion, the illusion that Boyi saw. In fact, the lineage of the three generations of the Son of Heaven, the Qingdi, the Yandi, and the Yellow Emperor has been passed down to the present day, and in most cases, the Son of Heaven is passed down from father to son, and if there is no son, it is passed on to his younger brother and nephew.
Not to mention the Son of Heaven, the positions of the princes of various ministries and the titles of all levels in the country are basically inherited in this way. Bojun appointed a son as the heir, and he was nurtured from an early age, and when he could become the next Bojun, the Zen throne was handed over. The most typical example is that Wu Hui is located in Lu Zhong, and Lu Zhong is located in Kunwu.
If there is no such tradition, why would Chonghua push Danzhu and Dayu should push Shang Jun, aren't they doing this too much? The reason why Boyi has that kind of illusion is because he was born in a very special historical era that is almost impossible to replicate.
Didn't Di Yao want to pass on the throne to Danzhu? But Danzhu was not good, and there was no one else who could inherit the throne of the Son of Heaven at that time except Chonghua. Didn't Emperor Shun want to spread the throne to Shang Jun? But Shang Jun was incompetent, and the Son of Heaven was none other than Yu. Although Boyi is unwilling, he must also recognize a fact, such as today's people and the heads of all ministries will not think that "there is no one except for benefit" and "there is no one for benefit".
If Danzhu had the ability to Chonghua and the prestige of Dayu, they would have been the Son of Heaven a long time ago. It's not that the father and son of the Son of Heaven can't be inherited, what Boyi sees is just some kind of illusion.
Chonghua and Dayu dare to give way, that is really daring, they know very well that Danzhu and Shang will not be able to nod and be the son of heaven. Boyi made a gesture of giving way to Xia Houqi after three years, not really let it, but just wanted to stabilize Xia Houqi first, and Xia Houqi didn't eat this set at all.
In the final analysis, the problem still lies with Boyi himself, no matter how unwilling he is, he has to admit that his talent, strength, and prestige have not reached the point he thinks.
Bo Yi was still a little unwilling when he heard this, and said: "Lord Ziqiu can know that after Qi succeeded to the throne, the country was named Xia, and ordered the Son of Heaven to be succeeded by the eldest son, and abolished the system of Zen concession. He also used the gold offered by Kyushu to cast Jiuding, in the name of his father, known as Yu Ding, symbolizing thousands of generations, the world Dingding. ā
Ziqiu asked, "What is the opinion of all the kings of the world?"
Boyi: "I heard that all the monarchs in the world succumbed to the power of Xia Qi, so I had to express my support one after another. ā
Ziqiu shook his head and said: "I was there at the time, but what I saw with my own eyes was different from what you had heard, and all the monarchs of the world did not succumb to the power of Xia Qi, but gladly complied. Do you know who is advising you to abolish the system of Zen and make a successor succeed to the throne?"
Bo Yi said with an indignant expression: "Since Lord Ziqiu is present, of course he knows better than me. ā
Boyi is the most resentful of Xia Qi's decree. If the succession system replaces the Zen concession system, then a person with talent and virtue like him will forever lose the opportunity to ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have united with the Youhu army to fight against Xia Qi, and would have directly handed over the Human Emperor Seal.
Ziqiu sighed and said: "There is a grandson, and there is no grandson, that is my advice." ā
The inheritance system is divided into two parts, the first is the eldest and the second is the long. The so-called concubine is the son-in-law of the wife, the identity and status are undoubted, if there are many sons-in-law, then the eldest of the concubines. If there is no son-in-law, the firstborn son may be appointed. If a person is both a concubine and the eldest son, then the succession is justified, unless the fault is punished and the heir is definitively abolished.
