Chapter 358: Emperor Shun
Shun has always been called together with Yao as a legendary sage king. "Records of the Grand Historian" says that Shun's name is Chonghua, while Huangfu Mi of the Jin Dynasty said that his courtesy name is Dujun. Shun is also called Yu Shun, which is said to be the name of the country Youyu. According to the custom of the pre-Qin era to use the country as a surname, he was called Youyu. It is also said that Shun was born in Yaoxu, so his surname was Yao, his name was "Chonghua", and his courtesy name was Dujun. According to legend, Shun's family background was very humble. Although he was a descendant of Emperor Zhuanxiang, he was a commoner for five generations and was at the bottom of society. Shun's experience was even more unfortunate. His father, Gusou, was a blind man, and his mother died very early. Gusou remarried, and his stepmother gave birth to a younger brother named Xiang. Shun lived in a family environment with a stubborn father, a noisy mother, and an arrogant stepmother. His father was not upright, his stepmother was two-faced, and his younger brother was arrogant and unruly. They colluded with each other and wanted to kill Shun. However, Shun was filial to his parents and very friendly to his younger brother. He did not slack off for many years. When his family wanted to harm him, Shun escaped in time; when he got better, he returned to them and tried his best to help them. Therefore, "If you want to kill him, you can't; if you want to find him, he is often by his side." With such an unfortunate life and such a bad environment, Shun was able to show extraordinary
Shun's character and good family relationships are unique in his legends. Shun was poor, so he engaged in various physical labors and experienced many ups and downs. He cultivated crops in Lishan, fished in Lei Ze, made pottery on the banks of the Yellow River, made household utensils in Shouqiu, and did a small business in Fuxia. In short, his livelihood was difficult, he was displaced, and he ran around everywhere to support his family. According to legend, Shun was very famous when he was 20 years old. He was famous for his filial piety. Because he was able to stick to filial piety to his parents who persecuted him, he was praised in his youth. After 10 years, Yao asked the four Yues (the leaders of the four princes) for the successor, and the four Yues recommended Shun. Yao married his two daughters to Shun to test his character and ability. Shun not only made the two daughters live in harmony with the whole family, but also showed his outstanding talents and noble personality in all aspects. "When Shun plowed Mount Li, the people of Mount Li gave way to him; when he fished in Lake Lei, the people of Lake Lei gave way to him." Wherever he worked, a custom of courtesy arose; "When he made pottery by the river, the pottery by the river was not shabby." Making pottery could also motivate the people around him to work hard, strive for excellence, and put an end to shoddy products. Wherever he went, people were willing to follow him, so "in one year, the place where he lived became a gathering place (聚
In two years, it became a town, and in three years, it became a Chengdu (four counties became a capital)". Yao was very happy to learn about these situations. He gave Shun gauze clothes (fine gauze clothes) and a zither, gave him cattle and sheep, and built a warehouse for him. Shun received these rewards, and Gusou and Xiang were very jealous. They wanted to kill Shun and seize these properties. Gusou asked Shun to repair the roof of the warehouse, but set fire to the warehouse from below. Shun used two bamboo hats as wings and jumped down from the roof and survived. Later, Gusou asked Shun to dig a well. The well was dug very deep. Gusou and Xiang Xiang, however, filled the well with dirt, intending to block up the well and bury Shun alive. Fortunately, Shun was alert in advance and dug a passage next to the well, through which he escaped and hid for a while. Gusou and Xiang thought their plot had succeeded. Xiang said that it was his idea, and that he wanted the zither when distributing things, and that he also wanted Yao's two daughters to be his wives, and that the cattle, sheep, and warehouses should be distributed to his parents. Xiang moved into Shun's house and played Shun's zither. When Shun went to see him, Xiang was shocked and very unhappy, but he said, "I am thinking about Shun very much!" Shun did not take it to heart. He continued to be filial to his parents and friendly to his brothers. Moreover, he was more sincere and cautious than before. Later, Yao asked Shun to participate in government affairs, manage officials, receive guests, and undergo various trials. Shun not only handled government affairs in an orderly manner, but also made improvements in employing people. The "Eight Yuan" and "Eight Kai" who were not appointed by Yao had long been famous for their virtues. Shun made the "Eight Yuan" manage the land and the "Eight Kai" manage education. There were also the "Four Evil Clans", namely the incompetent son of Emperor Hong, Hun Dun, the incompetent son of Shao Hao, Tao Wu, the incompetent son of Zhuan Xu, and the incompetent son of Jin Yun.
Although the talented Taotie was notorious, Yao failed to deal with him, so Shun exiled the "Four Evil Clans" to remote and wild places. The implementation of these measures showed Shun's strategy for governing the country and his political talent. After many tests, Shun finally won Yao's recognition. An auspicious day was chosen, and a grand ceremony was held. Yao abdicated to Shun. The "Book of History" called Shun "received the throne from Wenzu". It is also said that Shun took over the administration of the emperor on behalf of Yao. Although he had the power of the emperor,
There was no title of the Son of Heaven. A legend that is quite different from these two theories is that Shun imprisoned Yao and did not allow his son Danzhu to see him, and Shun himself became the Son of Heaven, which was similar to the palace coup d'état of later generations, usurping the throne. After Shun came to power, it is said that he took a series of major political actions, showing an atmosphere of striving for good governance. He revised the calendar, and held a grand ceremony to worship the God, the four seasons of heaven and earth, and the gods of mountains and rivers; he also collected the seals of the princes, and then selected an auspicious day to summon the princes and leaders of various places, held a grand ceremony, and re-issued the seals. In the year he ascended the throne, he went to various places to patrol, worship famous mountains, summon the princes, and investigate the people's sentiments; he also stipulated that he would patrol once every five years in the future to investigate the princes' reforms and achievements and clearly define rewards and punishments. It can be seen that Shun paid attention to the connection with the local areas and strengthened his rule over the local areas. According to legend, Shun's strategy for governing the country was to "use images as models of punishment and pardon the five punishments". He drew the shapes of five kinds of punishment on utensils to serve as a warning; he used exile to replace corporal punishment to show leniency. However, he also set up flogging, beating, and redemption punishments, especially for criminals who refused to repent. Shun exiled Gong Gong to Youzhou.
, exiled Huandou to Chongshan, exiled Sanmiao to Sanwei, and exiled Gun, who failed to control the flood, to Yushan. The bad guys were punished, and the people of the world were convinced. According to the legend recorded in "Records of the Grand Historian", Shun was regent for 28 years before Yao died. After three years of mourning, Shun gave up the throne to Yao's son Danzhu and retreated to the south of the Nanhe River. However, all the princes in the world went to pay homage to Shun, but ignored Danzhu; people who had lawsuits also complained to Shun, and the people composed many ballads to praise Shun, and did not take Danzhu seriously. Shun felt that the people's will and the will of heaven were his, and he could not shirk it, so he returned to the capital and ascended the throne of the emperor. However, according to legend, Shun's capital was not in the same place as Yao's capital. According to Huangfu Mi quoted in "Maoshi Zhengyi" by Kong Yingda of the Tang Dynasty; "Shun's capital is called Puban." Puban was Hedong County in the Tang Dynasty, which is now Yongji County in Shanxi Province
. After Yao's death, Shun made another great political reform. The duties of Yu, Gao Yao, Qi, Qi, Boyi, Kui, Long, Chui, Yi and others who had been appointed were not clear. At this time, Shun ordered Yu to be Sikong to manage water and soil; ordered Qi to be Houji to be in charge of agriculture; ordered Qi to be Situ to promote education; ordered Gao Yao to be "Shi" to be in charge of criminal law; ordered Chui to be "Gonggong" to be in charge of all craftsmen; ordered Yi to be "Yu" to be in charge of mountains and forests; ordered Boyi to be "Zhi Zong" to preside over etiquette; ordered Kui to be the music official to be in charge of music and education; ordered Longdan to be "Nayan" to be responsible for issuing orders and collecting opinions. It was also stipulated that political achievements should be inspected every three years, and promotion or dismissal would be decided based on the results of three inspections. Through such rectification, "the achievements of the people were prosperous" and all work took on a new look. The above-mentioned people have made brilliant achievements, and among them, Yu achieved the greatest success. He devoted himself to managing floods, set an example, dug mountains and opened swamps, dredged rivers,
Finally, the flood was subdued, and the people of the world lived and worked in peace and contentment. At that time, "all the people in the four seas admired the achievements of Emperor Shun" and "the virtues of the world all started from Emperor Yu", presenting an unprecedented peaceful situation. When Shun was old, he thought that his son Shang Jun was not worthy, so he decided to appoint Yu, who had the highest prestige, as his successor and let Yu take charge of administrative affairs. Therefore, Shun, like Yao, was a sage king who abdicated the throne. It is said that after Yao's death,
He reigned for 39 years. He died in the wilderness of Cangwu while on patrol in the south and was buried in Jiuyi Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River, which was called "Lingling".
Not to mention the military preparations, the You Yu clan is not an easy opponent to deal with.
At least in terms of the previous situation, the battle against Liu Bei's army was evenly matched and there was no sign of defeat.
Even at this time, Emperor Shun already had the leisure to take other actions and make plans for this world.
Two special characters must be mentioned here: Chong and Li.
Legend has it that Emperor Yao "ordered Chongli to open the heaven and earth, and no one would be demoted."
According to general saying, Kunlun Mountain, Jianmu and other existences are things that can reach heaven and earth, so ancient ancestors reached the fairyland directly by climbing.
During the Five Emperors period, plans to isolate the immortals began. According to records, it was Chongli and these two who took action to break the connection between heaven and earth!
Now, Emperor Shun also has these two under his command. It is not necessary to elaborate on what kind of magical powers they have, but they are an important means for Emperor Shun to break the current situation and avoid being besieged by the princes of the Three Kingdoms. The outcome will be clear in the future.
As for the so-called Four Evils, they were not sent out. Firstly, Emperor Shun had some problems controlling them, and secondly, of course, times have changed. It is hard to say how much influence they have on the barbarians now.
In fact, this matter has a lot of roots, and if you trace it back, it is somewhat related to Jiang Jun and others.
Because of what Lu Bu said at the beginning about the longer you stay in the world, the greater your potential. For the world laws, the world laws of this secret realm are also very powerful. Therefore, at the moment of contact with the Nine-Colored Sky Pillar, although the Nine-Colored Sky Pillar is mysterious, it allows the world laws to obtain a lot of information from Jiang Jun. Otherwise, there would not be such a change. At most, the strength of everyone
Just strengthen it.
As for what the laws of this world are going to do, it is unknown. At least for the current situation, the only impact is that the situation will become more chaotic. No one can say what it will become in the end! On the other hand, Jiang Jun's mind is a mess. What the world will become in the end depends on how much information the laws of this world will select!
