Chapter 269: The Age of the Five Emperors
Some people may want to say, I think this Wudang Holy Mother seems to be quite bad, I haven't heard of any great skills, great deeds or powerful magic weapons!
Hey, if you think so, then it's wrong! In the battle of the gods, the four major disciples of the Tongtian Sect Master, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit was on the list of gods, and the Holy Mother of the Ghost Spirit died in the hands of the mosquito people, and died miserably. Why? Is it just good luck? Luck is luck in turn, and if you want to be lucky, you have to have good luck!
In fact, I think that the Holy Mother of Wudang, who seems to have no obvious reputation and seems to be very low-key, is the most outstanding of the four personal disciples of the Tongtian Sect Master.
Getting back to the point, let's say that this red sperm is under the Yuxu Sect, which is influenced by Yuan Shi Tianzun and is very important. As his disciple, Zhen Xuan is also quite serious in this regard. As soon as he came to power, he began an important religious reform.
The Jiuli tribe that was subdued by Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, although they surrendered, most of them were witches, and they still believed in the ancestors of the witch tribe and worshiped ghosts and gods. As a result, he forced them to obey the indoctrination of the human race, which promoted the cultural integration and development of various ethnic groups. Naturally, under the spread of the teachings, the prestige of the human race has soared.
At the same time, he attaches great importance to personnel management and strives to develop agriculture. Due to changes in the mode of production, men have gradually become the dominant force in the clan, and the status of women has gradually decreased. Since then, men and women have been different, and the young and old have been orderly. He also reformed the first calendar and set the four seasons and the 24 solar terms.
During the reign of Zhuan Xu, there was a yellow water monster in the southwest of Neihuang, which often spat yellow water to flood farmland and wash away houses. He then asked his teacher Chi Sperm for advice, and Meng Chi Sperm passed down the magic weapon of the fairy sword, subdued the yellow water monster, and praised the human race.
After the seventy-eight years of his reign, the merits were complete, the merits were sent from heaven, and the achievements of the human emperor were achieved, but the cultivation was much weaker than that of the Three Emperors, and only the cultivation comparable to the ordinary quasi-saint level. As the teacher of Zhuan, the red sperm naturally also got some merit with the light.
After the preaching, the position of the co-lord of the human race passed to the emperor.
Legend has it that the emperor was born with great spirituality, and called out his name as soon as he was born. He was accepted as a disciple by the Holy Mother of Wudang, who was under the master of the Tongtian Sect.
After the emperor succeeded to the throne, he was widely favored by everyone, but not as much as himself. He is deaf and clear-sighted, can understand the situation in the distance, perceive subtle matters, respond to the people, understand the needs of the people, be benevolent and majestic, gentle and trustworthy, cultivate himself, and make the world subjugated.
The emperor ruled the people, just like the rain irrigating the farmland, impartial, all over the world. He collects the goods of the land and uses them sparingly, He instructs the peoples and teaches them all kinds of useful things, He calculates the movement of the sun and the moon in order to determine the seasons of the year, and respectfully welcomes the coming and going of the sun and the moon, He knows the spirits and serves them prudently, He is dignified and virtuous, He acts in accordance with the season, and takes them like a scholar.
It is worth mentioning that several sons of Emperor Yu, Houji is the ancestor of the Zhou Dynasty, Qi Nai is the ancestor of the Shang Dynasty, and Yao and Zhi all inherited the throne and became emperors. It can be seen that Xuanyuan's vein has branched out, and since Xuanyuan has experienced the Five Emperors, the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it is his blood descendants who control the world, so many people in later generations respect Xuanyuan as the ancestor of Yan and Huang.
During the reign of Emperor Yu, he was deeply influenced by the gentle temperament of the Holy Mother of Wudang, and he widely exercised benevolent government, rested with the people, and stopped fighting with foreign countries, so that many barbarian tribes were inspired by him to accept peace, and the human race entered an era of peace and vigorous development.
Emperor Yu reigned for 70 years, the world was under great rule, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and Emperor Yu was also a complete merit, proving the fruit of the emperor's way.
However, Emperor Yu also has selfish intentions, he loves his third son Zhi, and after abdication, he passed on to Zhizhi. It's just that he is ambitious and talented, has a tyrannical temperament, has governed the world for nine years, is not good at government, and the people's grievances are boiling, even if his teacher Our Lady of Jin Ling is very helpless in the face of such a disciple. After all, it is difficult to change a person's temperament and ability.
Under pressure, Zhi could only abdicate and give Xian to the disciple of Duobao Daoren, that is, his younger brother Yao.
At the age of fifteen, Yao was named the Marquis of Tang, and he shared weal and woe with the people in the Tang land, developed agriculture, properly handled all kinds of government affairs, and governed the Tang land in an orderly manner, which was not only loved by the people, but also won the praise of many tribal leaders.
Yao inherited the throne and was called Tang Yao because he was first sealed in the Tang Dynasty. Legend has it that Yao is as virtuous as the sky, wise as a god, rich but not proud, noble but not indulgent, can respect virtuous people, and go to inspect hundreds of officials, and even go deep into the poor countryside, to the mountains and wilderness to inspect and visit, ask for immortals, inspect political gains and losses, and select talents, so that there are many heroes and talents.
During Yao's reign, he also ordered people to perfect the astronomical calendar, with the moon cycle as one month and the sun cycle as one year, setting a year of 365 days.
Tang Yao reigned for more than 70 years, and he felt that his merits were complete, and he wanted to find a great sage to take over the position of the co-leader of the human race.
After the ministers discussed, they thought that Danzhu, the son of the co-owner, could take over the throne of the emperor. But how could Tang Yao not know what kind of virtue his son was? The person who said this was just trying to please himself.
Some people also recommend Kun, that is, Dayu's father. Some people recommended Yu Shun again, thinking that he was very virtuous.
Tang Yao heard some of Yu Shun's words, felt that this person was good, and had the heart to test him, so he married his two daughters, Empress E and Nuying, to him, wanting to observe his virtue from the two daughters to see if he could cure the housekeeping.
Shun makes pottery, which can drive the people around to engage in earnestness, keep improving, and put an end to shoddy production. Wherever he went, people were willing to follow, so he lived in a village in one year, a city in two years, and Chengdu in three years. Yao was very happy to learn of these situations, and secretly said that he really had a good vision.
After trying his virtues, Tang Yao asked Shun to get in touch with government affairs. Tang Yao asked Shun to try to serve as Situ and be responsible for the promotion of moral teaching, and Shun taught his subjects to guide their behavior with the five virtues of fatherhood, motherhood, brotherhood, brotherhood, and filial piety.
Tang Yao also asked Shun to be in charge of hundreds of officials and handle government affairs, and all the officials obeyed Shun's command, and all of them were revitalized, none of them were deserted, and they appeared to be orderly and disorderly.
Tang Yao asked Shun to be responsible for receiving the princes who came to meet him at the four gates of the Ming Hall, and Shun got along well with the princes, and also made the princes harmonious and friendly, and the princes and guests who came from afar respected him very much.
In the end, Tang Yao asked Shun to go alone to the forest at the foot of the mountain to withstand the test of nature. In the storm and thunderstorm, Shun was able to not lose his way and still walk, showing a strong ability to survive.
After many assessments, Tang Yao saw Shun's extraordinary talent and noble character, and Shun was finally recognized by Tang Yao. So, Tang Yao officially prepared, and Zen was located in Shun.
Shun Nai is a disciple of the Western medicine master, and under the guidance of the medicine master, he sacrificed to the saints, sacrificed to the famous mountains and rivers, and generally sacrificed to the gods of all walks of life. He convened the princes of all parties to coordinate and correct the four solar terms, the size of the moon, and the A and B of the sun, unified the standards of music and length, capacity, and weight, and cultivated the five etiquettes of Mingji, fierce, Bin, Jun, and Jia. Shun also redivided the world into twelve states, dredged rivers, and prescribed punishments.
At that time, there were heavy floods in the human race, especially in the later period of Shun's reign, and torrential rain and floods broke out in the flood, which had a heavy impact.
Shun was not proficient in water control, so he had to hand over the heavy task of water control to Kun. However, Kun's method of blocking did not cure the flood, but he himself was treated by Shun because of the unfavorable water control, and he was directly beheaded to show the public.
