There are generally two methods of succession for kings, one is merit and the other is hereditary. Merit refers to merit, and virtue refers to conduct. The former is like the Tang and Wu revolutions, Han Gaozu exterminated the tyrannical Qin, Ming Taizu restored the rivers and mountains, and Tang Gaozu rebelled against the tyrannical Sui Although it has a similar nature, he is accustomed to the tricks of usurping the throne in the name of false Chan since the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and does not know to imitate Shang Tang and King Wu of Zhou, but instead to learn from Cao Pi and Sima Yan.

There is a person who said that in history, there were many good people with a long lifespan and few good people with a short lifespan. I don't know that the length of the life of the dynasty is chosen by the people, 'people can promote the Tao, but not the Tao', and the good people have many dynasties and their luck will naturally grow, on the contrary, the fox squirrels are in power, and the miasma of smoke and smoke can the dynasties grow? In turn, they suspect that the records of the history books are biased, and this kind of intellectual and mental tricks really cannot be trusted.

The latter refers to Zen Rang, Confucianism is called Yao Shun, and the beauty is called Zen Rang, in fact, from the actual situation at that time, Zen Rang is only an expedient measure, and it is difficult to do it for a long time. Tang Yao had a great disaster of floods and beasts, and there were ten days together, scorching the crops, Tang Yao's son Danzhu, Yu Shun's son Shang Jun both lacked virtue and ability, and could not be qualified for the position of leader. That's why Yao Shun has the move to select talents.

The ancients said that there was Shang Tang hundreds of years after Xia Yu, and Zhou Wen only after Shang Tang for hundreds of years, and it was impossible for the throne to wait for a sage to teach.

Therefore, more often than not, the hereditary method is used, and the hereditary brother and the son inherit the father's business, the advantage of the former is that the succession is an adult with rich political experience, the Shang Dynasty is used alternately in the two methods, and then the son is passed on when there is no brother, but when the brother dies, the throne will not be passed on to the brother's son, which is not guaranteed.

Later generations of the throne are more authoritative than responsible, so there is often competition, and if the method of succession is not correct, there will be civil strife, which is not uncommon in history. After arriving in the Zhou Dynasty, it was stable to become a son to inherit his father's business, and Empress Dou of Emperor Wen of Han favored her youngest son King Liang and wanted Emperor Jing to pass on the throne to him, but the ministers did not approve, which shows that at that time the father to the son has become a deep-rooted concept.

In the hereditary system, there is a tradition of the eldest son succeeding to the throne, which is to fix the inheritance law, so that other princes have no loopholes to drill, but in this way, the character of the prince is not asked at all, and there are also those who lack intelligence, like Emperor Jin Hui, who is more violent, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties era abounds. Sometimes the queen mother and the ministers deliberately set up a young emperor for the convenience of manipulation, like seven or eight small emperors in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is inevitable that the power will fall.

In addition, there is also a way of teaching and receiving from master and apprentice, which is popular among religious gangs, and it can be said that Zen and hereditary are combined.

Although there is no blood relationship between master and apprentice, there is a inheritance of skills, since ancient times, 'heaven and earth are like teachers, master and apprentice are like father and son', and the relationship is also very close. Zen takes virtue and ability as the standard, and the successor of the mantle also attaches great importance to the level of skill, which is extremely common among monks.

The Yin and Yang family has the saying that the five virtues are always true, which is a kind of inheritance law. As the auxiliary of the Jade Emperor, the Four Emperors are all qualified to inherit the Heavenly Emperor. The Emperor Qinghua of the East Pole should be the first choice, although the immortal longevity is extended, the Jade Emperor has the queen mother Pan Tao and the Laojun elixir to support, and there is no problem in living for tens of thousands of years. Buddhism also has Maitreya Buddha as the heir of Rulai, Maitreya Buddha is also known as the Buddha from the East, it can be seen that according to the order of yin and yang five virtues, Qinghua Emperor is indeed the most qualified to inherit the throne of the emperor.

Now that he is excluded from the four emperors, he has lost the qualification of the assistant, and I am afraid that there is no possibility of succession.

The Antarctic Immortal Emperor is the eldest son of Yuan Shi Tianzun, who was previously called the Antarctic Immortal.

Emperor Gou Chen of the West Pole and Emperor Ziwei of the Arctic are both sons of Doumu Yuanjun, who is the apprentice of the Tongtian Sect Master, Our Lady of Jin Ling, and the master of the Thunder God Puhua Tianzun Wen Zhong.

Interestingly, Jiang Taigong named King Wen of Zhou's eldest son Bo Yi Kao as Emperor Ziwei, when King Wen of Zhou was detained and imprisoned in the tomb by Shang, Bo Yi Kao went to the court to save his father, but the result angered King Zhou, was chopped into meat sauce, made into meat cakes for King Wen to eat.

After King Wen returned to Xiqi, Sizi was heartbroken and spit out a white rabbit. This matter is full of strangeness, the disciples of the sect are not unaware that Yin Shang's qi has been exhausted, since Bo Yi Kao is the son of the Holy Mother of Jinling, the reincarnation of the eldest son of King Chengwen originally had the meaning of taking advantage of the trend.

It's a pity that during the song, Bo Yi Kao did not follow Daji's wishes and lost his life. The martial king, who was supported by the exposition of the religion, shouldered the great task of reviving the Zhou Dynasty and destroying the Zhou Dynasty, and the sect had to completely fall to the side of the Shang Dynasty. There is an idiom called rabbit death and fox sorrow, which is likely to have something to do with it.

Pushing the original, the golden crow and the jade rabbit are unique species on the sun and moon respectively, and the Bo Yi Kao is likely to be the jade rabbit family. After the decline of the four spirits, they often choose a force among the human race to assist them and indirectly achieve their own goals.

Fuxi, Dayu, Shang Tang, and King Wen of Zhou have all obtained the secret methods of the four spirits, such as Hetu and Luoshu, and the battles of the human race often have demons behind the scenes, which is the same as the era of the four spirits, and the gods drove the four spirits to attack and kill each other, which is nothing new.

In short, the four royals are very big, and they can't be compared to Jiang Taigong. No wonder there's no place for him in there.

Although the five elders of the five directions are famous, Rulai and Guanyin are both friends outside the church, and Jiang Taigong and Guan Lao have no clear positions.

This is no different from the situation when the Jade Emperor listened to the advice of Tai Bai Xing to recruit Sun Wukong and named him a Monkey King, but he had no power.

If you let mortals to nominate it, Guanyin and Guan Ye Bacheng are powerful candidates for the Emperor of Heaven, but the essence of the three clear and four royal is the hereditary relationship between father and son, master and apprentice, the needle can not be inserted, the water can not be splashed, the folk are respected like the five elders of the five directions, you may wish to be canonized as the emperor, give an idle and noble position, do not know how to advance and retreat like Sun Wukong, so he tried his best to suppress it, and as a result, he had to escape into Buddhism, seek refuge, and explain the twelve golden immortals in Manjushri, Fuxian, and Cihang, and the three generations of disciples have Jin Zha, Muzha, Wei Hu, and the later Sun Wukong seems to be no different.

It's a world where nothing can be done.

Yin Wuya made a heavenly divine eye, and the thought of spying on the situation of the gods was a little whimsical.

According to him, the eyes of the gods can see hundreds of millions of kilometers away, and the heavens and stars can naturally see clearly.

But the human eye can only observe the skin and body, and the spiritual things are blind and ignorant. Ghosts are alien creatures, and gods are spirits, neither of which can be observed with the naked eye. (To be continued.) )
