94, the rule of the five emperors

Xuanyuan passed on the position of the co-master of the human race to his grandson Gaoyang. It is one of the five emperors of the earth called by later generations.

After passing down the throne of the Terran co-master. Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor sat on the dragon chariot with Fuxi in the human race. Drive the clouds away.

Since then. The three emperors of heaven, earth and man finally completed their merits.

After taking over the position of the co-lord of the human race, an important religious reform was carried out, because the Jiuli tribe conquered by the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor at that time, although the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor surrendered, most of them were witches, and still believed in the ancestors of the Wu people, and worshiped ghosts and gods, so they were forced to obey the indoctrination of the Yellow Emperor, which promoted the cultural integration between the various ethnic groups and made the development of all ethnic groups.

At the same time, he attached great importance to personnel management and worked hard to develop agriculture, but due to changes in the mode of production, men gradually became the dominant force in the clan, and the status of women gradually declined.

In addition, he created Kyushu according to the territory of each tribe, and established a ruling body, studied the difference between men and women, and the order of the young and the old; reformed the first calendar, set the four seasons and the 24 solar terms, and later generations recommended him as the "Lizong".

At that time, there was a yellow water monster in the southwest of Neihuang, which often spat yellow water to flood farmland and destroy houses. When he heard this, he was determined to submit to it. But the Yellow Water Monster has great magical powers, although Xuanyuan is the grandson of the Yellow Emperor, and he has learned his Taoism, but after all, the Tao is shallow, and the two of them fought fiercely for 9981 days but could not subdue this Yellow Water Monster.

So, Zhuan Niang went to heaven to ask Nuwa Niangniang for help, and after Nuwa Niangniang knew what she meant, she handed over the Heavenly King's Sword to Zhuan and taught him how to use it. In order to bring benefits to the world, he used the sword of the king to turn Dashagang into a mountain, named Fuyu Mountain, and used the sword to draw a river next to the mountain, named the Nitrate River.

After reigning for 78 years, he passed on to his nephew Emperor Yu, who helped Emperor Yu to govern the world at the age of fifteen, and took over the throne at the age of 30.

After the emperor, it was the eldest brother of Fang Xun who inherited the throne, but the emperor had no outstanding political achievements.

At the age of fifteen, Fang Xun was named the Marquis of Tang, and he shared weal and woe with the people in the Tang Dynasty, worked hard to develop agriculture, and properly handled all kinds of government affairs, which was not only supported by the people, but also praised by many tribal leaders. As a result, the leaders of the various tribes were also alienated from each other. In the ninth year of the emperor's Zhi, the close relatives led officials to the Tang Dynasty to put the emperor's throne in Fangxun, and the emperor was the emperor's throne, and the emperor's name was Yao, because it was first sealed in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the Tang Dynasty was the code name, which was the first dynasty code in the history of our country, and later generations called it Tang Yao. After Tang Yao ascended the throne, he conformed to the development of human civilization, and was diligent and prudent in government, setting the calendar, administering morality, resisting natural disasters, building the country, selecting meritocracy, and making outstanding political achievements.

The land of Yaoxu has produced a world-famous filial son, whose name is Chonghua, and Yu Shun, is the emperor after the emperor, but the fifth generation is the people, not administrative affairs, his father is blind, his younger brother, are not like Shun.

At this time, Emperor Yao was old and decrepit, and the Yellow River flooded, annihilating the homes of hundreds of people, and Emperor Yao felt that he could no longer benefit the human race, so he summoned the ministers of Siyue and asked them to recommend people who could take over the position of the co-leader of the human race. Siyue recommended his son Danzhu to Emperor Yao, and Emperor Yao shook his head and said: "Zhu'er can be the head of a place in Dandi, but his talent is difficult to be the lord of the world, no!"

Some ministers recommended Yu Shun to Emperor Yao, saying that he was not only a filial son, but also a talented person who could be the co-master of the human race.

Emperor Yao said: "I have also heard of Shun's filial piety, but I haven't seen it yet, I don't know how it is, after all, the position of the co-owner is related to the blessing of the people of the world, and it cannot be passed down at will, and it must be tested before it can be decided!"

So he ordered Shun to be summoned, married his two daughters to him, and asked Shun to accompany him to help him deal with government affairs. After three years, Emperor Yao saw that Shun was able to handle the affairs of the family well. He also handled the affairs of the human race in an orderly manner, with a degree of relaxation and reasonableness, and won the respect of all the courtiers and the love of the people. So Emperor Yao was a Zen and Shun, and said to him: "Shun, I am old. It is difficult for our people, such as today, it is still unsettled, the flood is overflowing, the grass and trees are lush, the birds and beasts are breeding, and the grains are not climbing. Beasts are pressing, the way of animal hooves and bird tracks is handed over to China, and the floods in the world endanger the people at night, you must calm the floods and live up to my hopes!"

Shun said with a firm expression: "Shun will calm down the flood and return my human race to a bright world!"

Emperor Yao nodded with satisfaction, and then went into seclusion, handing over the world to Yu Shun.

During Shun's reign, the flooding of the Yellow River became even more serious, and he asked the ministers of the Quartet: "What can the ministers do to calm the floods?"

The courtiers looked at each other, and there was nothing to think of. A courtier came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, there is a person in my clan named Kun, who has made meritorious contributions to water control in the year of Emperor Yao, and his people are good at water control, why don't Your Majesty summon Kun and control the water with him to level the world!"

Emperor Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately issued an order to make Kun the minister of the sky, in charge of water affairs, and all the manpower and material resources of the human race were at his disposal.

Kun was ordered by Emperor Shun to concentrate on the great cause of water control. He thought to himself: The flood is surging, and only by blocking it can we prevent it from harming the human race, so that a large number of people are recruited to dig up the soil and block the water. Nine years later, it took countless manpower and material resources of the human race, and the land of the Yellow River can be seen everywhere with high earthen walls, and the flood was blocked, and it fell silent for a while!

Kun thought that the flood had been subdued by him, so he reported to Emperor Shun. Emperor Shun was overjoyed, entertained the ministers at home, and congratulated Kun for his efforts to control the water.

While everyone was drinking with joy, suddenly a lightning bolt as bright as day flashed in the sky, and then a shocking thunder exploded, and the heavens and the earth were darkened, and then a torrential rain poured down all over the northern land.

Emperor Shun put down the wine in his hand, suddenly got up and came to the door, looked at the heavy rain in the sky, and asked Kun worriedly: "Aiqing, there is a heavy rain in the sky at this time, will the land of the Yellow River be harmed?"

Kun stood up and said with a worried face: "Your Majesty forgives you for your sins!

Emperor Shun was about to speak, when he saw a soldier hurriedly running in from outside, bowing down to Emperor Shun and saying: "Report to Your Majesty, a torrential rain fell from the sky, and the torrential rain broke through the earth wall surrounding the flood, and the flood gushed out, annihilating countless people's crops and countless dead!"

"Ah", Kun exclaimed, as if he couldn't believe it, and the whole person stood there stunned in an instant, unable to speak!

The ministers were shocked! For a while, the room fell silent, waiting for Emperor Shun's will!

Yu Shun's face was gloomy at this time, the muscles on his face were constantly beating, two lines of hot tears fell down his cheeks, he knelt on the ground in front of the sky, and choked in his mouth: "Shun is incompetent, and he misused Kun, so that hundreds of people of my human race were buried in the flood, which is Shun's fault!"

When the ministers saw this, they also fell to their knees with him, professing their guilt!

At this time, he came back to his senses, and bowed to Emperor Shun miserably: "Kun is incompetent, please ask Your Majesty to surrender!"

Emperor Shun stood up, looked at the pale Cang, and ordered the soldier in a loud voice: "Escort Kun to Yushan and behead him!" The soldier answered, and held Kun, but Kun did not resist, and let him escort him out of the house and towards Yushan!

In the pouring rain, Kun was beheaded in Yushan, and Emperor Shun ordered his body to be collected and sent back to his home. Looking at the torrential rain that was still falling, Emperor Shun asked his courtiers: "Ladies and gentlemen, what other strategies can you take to deal with the flood?" After the torrential rain, not only the Yellow River in the north of Kyushu suffered from flooding, but now even the waters of the Yangtze River in the south are also flooding, and the whole country is suffering from floods at this time, even more than before!

But I saw that the minister who had recommended Kun came out and played: "Your Majesty, the son of Kun Yu is also proficient in water control, and the minister heard that his way of water control is different from Kun's way of water control, why don't Your Majesty call him to give it a try, if you think that his method can calm the flood, let him take charge of the water control affairs this time!"

Emperor Shun frowned when he heard this: "I have also heard of the name of Yu, but I have never seen it, but I can summon it first, and I will personally consider whether I am proficient in the way of water control with him!"

So Emperor Shun issued an edict to summon Yu, only to see his eyebrows thick, nine feet tall, tiger step male body, heroic extraordinary, a pair of bright eyes blooming with terrifying brilliance. What a heroic man! Emperor Shun secretly praised in his heart.

I saw Yu bow down and salute Emperor Shun, and said, "Weichen Yu, meet Your Majesty, Your Majesty is safe!"

Emperor Shun nodded and said, "Qing and Ping! I heard that Qing is good at managing water, but I don't know what Qing has to do?"

After Yu Wenyan pondered for a moment, Fang said: "Back to Your Majesty, it's better to lose than to block, and the water control should be based on dredging!"

Emperor Shun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Qing can really control the water! I want to let Qing lead the position of Sikong and take charge of the great cause of water control, can Qing be willing to take it?"

Hearing this, Yu hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed: "The minister is willing to accept it, and vow to pacify the flood demons to comfort my father's spirit in the sky!"

When the emperor heard this, he thought of the beheaded cang, and couldn't help sighing, and said: "You have this ambition, it is good, but I just hope that you will think of the safety of hundreds of millions of people of our human race, and don't be like your father again!"

Yu heard this, and his heart sank. He immediately said firmly: "Your Majesty is relieved for the time being!

Emperor Shun nodded. "In that case." Go back and get ready. Since then, the surname of hundreds of millions of people in our tribe has been lifed. and it will be handed over to you!"

Yu Wenyan couldn't help but think of Tu Shan, his wife who had just gotten married. Yu immediately bid farewell to Emperor Shun. Back home. From afar, he saw his wife leaning against the door. A warm heart. Hurriedly hurried to his wife. He took his wife by the hand and went into the house.

Wait until you're seated. Fang Dao: "I am ordered by the co-master. Inherit his father's duties to cure the floods. Leave in a moment. I'm not at home. It's up to you!"

Tu Shan's hand shook when he heard this. It was immediately relieved. He smiled softly and said, "This is a great matter for the benefit of the human race. Husband, go. The concubine will take good care of her mother at home!"

Yu nodded. Then he bowed to his mother. Under the gaze of two women. To the Flooded Land!
