Chapter 402: Yao Lets Shun Zen, praises ancient and modern times

History should be objective and fair, but those who compile history books may not be objective and fair.

Just like, everyone is equal before the law, but not everyone is equal before the judge.

There is no reason, it is just artificial.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, as long as the historical books are compiled or individuals, the emotions, concepts and even some historical books authors succumb to the powerful state machine and deliberately bend and tamper with them.

Even the great historian Sima Qian is hard to avoid this.

Yao also said, "Alas, the four Yues, the floods are overwhelming, and the vast mountains and Xiangling are so great that the people below are worried about what they can do to control?" They all said, Gun can. Yao said, "Gun takes the order to destroy the clan, but it cannot be done." Yue said, "What a strange thing, it's just a try." Yao then heard that Yue used Gun. At the age of nine, his function was not achieved.

As recorded in the Records of the Grand Historian, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are all tall and perfect superhuman images, but if you look at the reason carefully, you are afraid that there is a lot of content, which is still to be discussed.

At that time, a flood occurred across the country, and Yao asked the Four Yues who could control the flood. All the Four Yues said that Gun could do it, and no one was more suitable except Gun. Yao refused on the grounds that Gun was not a good citizen, but he could not find anyone who could control the flood, so he appointed Gun to control the flood.

Gun had been controlling the flood for nine years and worked diligently, even risking his life to steal Xiran. It can be said that Gun had no selfishness in flood control, at least not like those officials in the 21st century, even those who were officials in the earthquake relief funds dared to embezzle them. From this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that Gun served the people wholeheartedly.

However, the world did not fulfill its wish. Seeing that the well of water control was about to be successful, the Emperor of Heaven discovered that it forced the Xilan to be reclaimed, causing the flood to rage the human race again.

However, Yao used the excuse of unsuccessful flood control to kill Gun on the spot. Only the person involved knew what was wrong with it.

Gun was beheaded by Yao, but the water control project stopped.

First, no one was better at controlling floods than Gun; second, Yao's move actually made the hearts of the soldiers. Even if someone was willing to help the people manage floods, he touched his neck and found that his neck was also fleshy and not iron. After hesitating for a long time, he chose to remain silent.

Even if Yao forced anyone to serve as the position of Shui Zheng, these guys tried their best to shirk their excuses, such as taking sick leave, serving their mothers, and having children, they were really full of tricks, and even more, they really couldn't find an excuse, so they broke their legs with a cruel heart.

The flood was flooding, and news of emergency spread across the country came to the imperial capital every day, but no one could send Yao.

As the lord of a country, watching his people be forced by the flood and displaced, Yi Qi Fangxun couldn't help but feel anxious and unable to sleep or eat.

I think since I succeeded to the throne, I have been working hard and loving the people. If it weren’t for the flood that caused harm to all directions, my achievements would probably be slightly inferior to my ancestor Huangdi?

But now? Alas...

After a few more years of force, the ministers were already afraid of the position of Shui Zheng, and were afraid to avoid it. However, the floods in the country, without anyone to control them, not only did they show any signs of weakening, but instead became more and more intense. Not only did a large amount of farmland be submerged, but the casualties also increased in geometric base.

What made Yi Qi Fangxun even more collapsed was a rumor that seemed to have come from the Heavenly Court, and the content was roughly as follows.

Speaking of which, there were the head of the Xiong clan leader, Huangdi, and Gongsun Xuanyuan in front of him. He heard that the human tribes were in trouble for years under the rule of their own Xiong tribe, so he wondered if he wanted something to help his descendants.

Since the Three Emperors have always been one, the human rule of the Youxiong Tribe seemed to be forcibly stolen from the Yan Emperor Tribe by despicable means. Therefore, when the human race was in trouble, Gongsun Xuanyuan was willing to ask for help, but he was not very willing to bow his head to the Three Emperors.

Not to mention the aspect of the Emperor Haotian Jade Emperor, you just stole other people's things and now you come to ask others to help you. As for this, Gongsun Xuanyuan couldn't speak.

In desperation, Gongsun Xuanyuan had to turn his eyes to the Antarctic Emperor, Qingfeng Zhao Caishen and Zhao Gongming among the five heavenly emperors.

Since he had been taught business from his dad, Zhao Caishen Qingfeng smiled every day, which was quite a bit harmonious and wealthy.

Now, hearing the content of Gongsun Xuanyuan coming to ask for help, Qingfeng Zhao Caishen stumbled on the abacus for a while, and shook his head firmly in Gongsun Xuanyuan's expectant eyes.

"Originally, the human race was created by Nuwa. My disciples of Jie Cult protect the human race, but they have no choice but to do so. But the master of the family master Tongtian Sect said that if it were not for a large-scale invasion of the human race, the disciples of Jie Cult should not easily interfere in human affairs."

"Although the human race is seriously plagued, it is still a mundane force. If the water monsters did not directly take large-scale actions to hurt people, it would be difficult for us disciples of the Jie Sect to take action easily."

"Besides, Yi Qi Fangxun is a righteous man. Not only does he ignore the hardships of controlling the water, but he slaughtered the water for his own selfishness for his own selfishness, causing no one in the human race to dare to come forward to control the water. So, if Yao did not abdicate, the human race would be afraid that it would be difficult to eradicate the flood!"

This was originally told by Zhao Caishen and Gongsun Xuanyuan, but somehow it was passed to the lower realm. Then, by chance, it came into Yi Qi Fangxun's ears.

Hearing this, Yi Qi Fangxun was so angry that he vomited three liters of blood.

Since his wife was stolen, Yi Qi Fangxun has never been able to speak well.

Although Yao soon married a woman from Sanyi as his wife, and his husband and wife lived a lot, and had seven sons and two daughters. However, as a normal man, his wife was snatched away in person. It would be absolutely impossible to say that Yao had no resentment in his heart.

In addition, the human race was raging and disasters were caused by years of disasters. The emperor Yi Qi Fangxun was also very angry. Now that Zhao Caishen scolded him again, he was angry and almost ended up being the leader of Yi Qi Fangxun.

With the efforts of the medical officers to treat him, Yi Qi Fangxun barely recovered from his soberness after tens of days of care.

Although he woke up, after repeated blows, and with his age getting older, Yi Qi Fangxun gradually felt discouraged and lazy.

After several years of force, I finally lost my support, so I decided to abdicate and leave the mess to others.

According to the tradition of the Youxiong tribe, the throne was of course handed over to its descendants. However, now there are floods everywhere, which is not a prosperous scene. Moreover, Yao's adult son is only Danzhu, born by Fairy Deer. However, Danzhu is a stubborn person by nature and is not a wise ruler. Moreover, Danzhu has little relationship with the ministers under Yao and the princes of all directions. If he forcibly promoted him to the throne, it will not only harm the people, but also harm the princes of all directions. If these guys rebel, they will not only lose their country, but also harm the descendants.

After thinking about it, Gun decided to test the attitudes of his ministers and princes from all directions first.

Yao said, "Alas! Four Yues: I have been in power for seventy years. Can you be mediocre and dominate my throne?" Yue Ying said, "I despise the throne of the emperor." Yao said, "Everyone is noble and estranged and hidden." Everyone said to Yao, "I am proud of the people and are called Yu Shun." Yao said, "However, I heard of it. How is it?" Yue said, "The blind son is stubborn, the mother is savage, and the younger brother is arrogant. He can be harmonious and filial, and he will be governed without being traitorous." Yao said, "How can I try it."

The general meaning of this passage is as follows:

Yao said: Siyue, I have been the emperor for seventy years and I found that you work very hard. You inherit my position and become the emperor and clean up this mess. How about you?

Siyue trembled in her heart, thinking, how could this old man know that we were going to rebel, but he said modestly and modestly, "We have no virtue, I'm sorry to be the emperor!"

When it comes to this virtue, Yao is so frustrated. Isn’t this the same thing as saying that my son has no moral character and isn’t suitable to be the emperor?

In addition to being angry, Yao felt helpless and had to follow the topic of Siyue and then asked, "Then are there any so-called noble virtues among your relatives and those you know who have heard of?"

Yao's original intention was to think that as long as you can't find someone with noble virtues and can be recognized by everyone, if you take the opportunity to ask Danzhu to be the emperor, everyone will have no objection.

You should know that since the emergence of private ownership, the human race has long since the emergence of the Three Emperors. With the gradual increase of private property, people's selfishness is also increasing day by day. How can there be any spirit of serving the people wholeheartedly? Even the ancestor Huangdi had great selfishness.

Besides, the world is still from our Gongsun Xuanyuan lineage, and Danzhu succeeds to the throne, so it is considered to be a good girl!

Unexpectedly, these four mountains are not that easy to fool.

Well, since you are looking for someone with noble character, let’s recommend one to you!

So Siyue said, "There is a idle man without a wife and no official position. He is named Yu Shun. He is a noble person and is simply a living Lei Feng!"

How is that possible? Yao wondered, in this era, everything has become market-oriented, and everything is looking at money. How could there be a living Lei Feng-like figure?

But seeing that Siyue's expression didn't look like a lie, he asked, "I seem to have heard of this person. Don't try to deceive me, I'm not too confused yet! So, come quickly!"

The four Yueyue hurriedly defended, "This Yu Shun is a good person in front of him! His mother died early, his father was a blind man and a stubborn man, and often had a short-circuiting mind and did some stupid things inexplicably; his stepmother was an arrogant shrew, and there was no good thing among his brothers and sisters. They were all arrogant and fierce, and they were all people who wanted money and were desperate. But even so, this Yu Shun was still very filial to his parents, was very friendly to his brothers, and never spoke ill of each other. Therefore, this Yu Shun was a good person!"

After hearing this, Yao was gone. He was obviously a living Lei Feng-like figure. He was really the best! How could he find fault with me?

In desperation, Yao had no choice but to say, "Then give it a try!"

So, he married the two daughters Ehuang Nuying, whom Sanyi had for him, to Yu Shun, and let the two daughters be spies, and to report to him about Yu Shun's situation at any time.

Although it was an arranged marriage and had a spy status, Shun was really unspeakable in terms of morality. Shun's stepmother and brother wanted to kill Shun, and then took the opportunity to divide Shun's property. Several times, Shun almost died, but Ehuang Nuying saw the opportunity early and finally saved Shun's life.

But even so, Shun was still very courteous to his stepmother and brothers, without any dissatisfaction or slackness.

Over time, Ehuang and Niaoying were also sincerely convinced by Yu Shun's noble character of repaying grievances with virtue.

Moreover, Ehuang Nuying also knew that his brother Dan Zhu was not a kind person. Once he ascended the throne, he was afraid that his sisters and the seven brothers would have no way to survive, so he decided to help Yu Shun ascend the throne.

Not only that, Ehuang Niaoying also won over his seven younger brothers and told them that they were powerful and said that only when Yu Shun ascended the throne could he and others have a way out, and so on.

Qi Xiao was confused by his two sisters. Although he was confused, he probably understood one thing, that is, his brother-in-law is a good person and his brother Danzhu is a bad person.

Therefore, under the cover of these two-sided spies, Yu Shun, who was already noble in virtue, successfully passed Yao's various tests and finally successfully passed Yao's numerous tests.

Although he was determined to promote Danzhu to the throne, Danzhu really had no talent in governing the world and offended the court officials. Yao was helpless and was not willing to let Danzhu to the throne for the livelihood of his young children.

In addition, he had already said something he wanted to give way to the wise man before, and Yao was embarrassed to regret it.

After all, although I am the emperor, if the ministers below unanimously object, I cannot act alone, otherwise there is a possibility of being overthrown.

What's more, Yu Shun is not only the direct lineage of his ancestor Huangdi, but now he is also his own son-in-law, and he is not an outsider.

Moreover, Yu Shun does seem to be a good person, at least after he ascended the throne, he should not make things difficult for his descendants.

So, without a way out, Yao had to pass the throne to his son-in-law, Yu Shun, which is the "Yao Let Shun Zen" praised in history and present.

This year, Yao was eighty-six years old and served as the emperor for a total of seventy years.

Yu Shun, the eighth-generation grandson of Emperor Huang, was born in Yao, so he took Yao as his surname and named Chonghua.

During Yu Shun's reign, he made a lot of innovations in political affairs. Among them, the most important thing was to further clarify and refine the responsibilities of various official positions that were originally mixed, and ordered Sikong to manage the water and soil, Situ was in charge of education, Hou Ji was in charge of agriculture, etc. In addition, it was also stipulated that political achievements were inspected once every three years, and the promotion and removal of officials were determined based on the results of three inspections. The administration of officials was a Qing Dynasty for a while.

In addition, Yu Shun's character is really convincing. "Shun farms Lishan, and everyone in Lishan gives way; fishing Leize, and everyone in Leize gives way." No matter where Shun goes, under Shun's words and deeds, a polite wind will automatically arise.

Therefore, over the years, Shun's political achievements have become quite impressive.

In addition, the most important point is that Shun once again appointed a water control water Zheng, and restarted the great cause of flood control that had been abandoned for more than ten years. The name of this water Zheng was called Yu. Later, it was named Xia Bo, so it is also called Xia Yu, or Bo.

Yu's father was Gun. Rumors said that after Gun was killed by Yao, his body did not rot for three years. Later, he was stabbed with a knife and a yellow light flew out, so Yu was born.

When Shun succeeded to the throne and became emperor, Yu had already grown up and inherited Nai's father's will. Yu had always wanted to completely solve the flood and save the people from the water and fire. When Shun recruited many virtuous people from all directions in order to control the flood, he recommended himself to Shun and won the title of water. From then on, he began his hard and long career in water control.

The new emperor of the human race succeeded to the throne, and Gongsun Xuanyuan and others, who had been paying attention to the human race, were immediately informed.

Yao was the fourth generation grandson of Huangdi, and Shun was the eighth generation grandson of Gongsun Xuanyuan. Although they belonged to different branches, they were all descendants of Gongsun Xuanyuan. Therefore, in Gongsun Xuanyuan's view, this so-called abdication did not actually flow into the fields of outsiders.

Since he is still in power, Gongsun Xuanyuan cannot watch his descendants suffer from disasters, and even his foundation of rule is shaken.

He remembered what the Antarctic Emperor Changsheng said in the previous episode, and Gongsun Xuanyuan then came to visit again with shameless face, asking Qingfeng Zhao Caishen to send troops to the world to quell the rebellion of the demon monkeys and save the human race and the people in dire straits.

He sent someone to investigate again. Qingfeng Zhao Caishen discovered that whether it was the human emperor Shun or the Shui Zhengyu, they were all good people who were willing to serve the people wholeheartedly. So with a wave of his hand, he sent his two junior brothers Jin Guang and Lingya to subdue the demon monkey Wu Zhiqi and other water monsters.

As the second generation of direct bloodline of the innate demon god, Li Otakuan's direct disciple, for millions of years, the cultivation of Jin Guang and Lingya is not as strong as other senior brothers and sisters. He is in a solid foundation and has been working steadily all the way. Now he has just reached the peak of the thirty-third level of heaven. He can enter the ranks of quasi-saints by half a step, and is also considered a little master.

These two demons took action personally and brought the elite demon soldiers of the Sky Snake Legion of 100,000. It would be easy to deal with such a pseudo-innate monkey.

In fact, it was indeed the same. When the two little monsters, Jin Guang and Lingya, could go out to fight, they didn't talk nonsense, so they led their 50,000 troops and rushed to the prehistoric world with murderous aura.

The two men divided into two groups, one swept the Jianghan waters and the other cleared the Heluo waters. The road was like a staggering force, and all the monsters of all sizes fled to the wind.

There was no way to escape, because all the stubborn elements were cut into meat sauce by the monsters of the fierce Tianser Legion; those who tried to resist were beaten to the monster type and then captured; a few of them ran slowly, were beaten to the point of being blue and swollen, and were also captured.

Jin Guang and Lingya were not very interested in these small fish and shrimps, but they only chased rabbits downstream and advanced towards the lair of the three demon monkeys.

When the three demon monkey princes heard that some monsters dared to cause trouble for themselves, they couldn't help but become angry. They each led the demon soldiers and came to find the bad luck of the golden light and spiritual teeth with murderous intent.

Although these three little monster monkeys have good magic power, they have not been able to practice for a long time. Although the martial arts are authentic Pangu, they are like fragments. Compared with Golden Light and Lingya, they are incomparable. Even if they are inferior to the general-level commander of the Tianser Legion, they are far inferior to those of the Tianser Legion.

In terms of the quality of soldiers, the Sky Snake Legion is an elite of all battles, and is far from comparable to the mobs under the three demon monkeys.

So, without any suspense, the three demon monkeys were beaten again.

The demon soldiers under his command were caught and killed. The three little demon monkeys were as anxious as dogs of a broken family, and like fish that were missing the net. They ran all the way with their tails and fled straight to the Huaihe River Basin.

Behind him, Jin Guang and Lingya led the people to search the hometown of the three demon monkeys, and then slowly stuck behind the three demon monkeys and rushed straight to Wu Zhiqi's nest in the Huaihe River Basin.
