Chapter 94 The Era of the Five Emperors ([-])
After hearing Yao's words, Siyue nodded and replied, "Shun lived in a family environment of 'father stubborn, mother clamorous, and Xiangao'. His father, Gusou, was blind and his mind was not right, and his stepmother was double-faced.

The younger brother Xiang is rebellious and rebellious, and several of them are in collusion to put Shun to death and then hurry up.However, Shun treated his parents like a child, he was very filial, and he was very friendly with his younger brother. For many years, he never slacked off.

When Shun's family wanted to harm him, he escaped in time, and when he got better, he immediately returned to them.

He tried to help as much as possible, even though his life was so unfortunate and his environment was so bad, Shun was able to get along with his family in harmony, acted filially and fraternally, and managed the family well so that they would not go evil. "

Listen, Yao pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll try him first!"

……

Emperor Yao, who made up his mind to test Yu Shun, married his two daughters, Ehuang and Nvying, to Shun, and observed his virtues from the two daughters to see if he could manage the housekeeping well.

Shun asked them to lower their noble hearts and live in their homes by the GUI River, and abide by the way of being a wife.

The two women are very fond of Shun and abide by women's morals. Shun's pottery making can motivate people around him to work hard, keep improving, and put an end to shoddy production.

Wherever he went, people were willing to follow him, so he lived in a gathering (a gathering is a village) in one year, a city in two years, and Chengdu in three years (four counties are the capital).

Yao was very happy when he heard about this. He gave Shun clothes (Xige cloth clothes) and a qin, cattle and sheep, and built a barn for him. Gusou still wanted to kill him, and conspired with his family to kill Shun many times.

But Shun was always miraculously able to survive as if he was blessed by God. Even so, Shun still treated his parents and loved his brothers as before, and was more respectful.

In this way, after testing Shun's character, Yao began to let Shun get in touch with government affairs. Yao asked Shun to try out the post of Situ, responsible for promoting moral education, and Shun taught his subjects the "Five Codes".

That is, the five virtues of fatherly righteousness, motherly kindness, brothers and friends, brotherly respect, and son's filial piety guide one's behavior. Subjects are willing to follow his teachings and generally act in accordance with the "five codes".

Yao also asked Shun to be in charge of all officials and handle government affairs. All officials obeyed Shun's command, and all things were revived without any waste.

Yao also made Shun responsible for receiving the princes from all directions at the four gates of the Ming Hall. Shun got along well with the princes and made them all harmonious and friendly. The guests from the princes from afar respected him very much.

Finally, Yao let Shun go alone to the forest at the foot of the mountain to experience the test of nature.

Shun was able to walk without losing his way in the storm, showing a strong ability to live.

After many tests, Yao saw Shun's extraordinary talent and noble character, and Shun finally got Yao's approval, so Emperor Yao ordered people to make preparations to pass on the co-lordship to Shun.

……

During Emperor Yao's reign, he promoted Western religion a lot, but the effect was not very good.

Long before the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Three Religions of Human Interpretation and Interpretation had already begun to preach in the human race.The three religions they preach occupy a vast area, and there are many human races, so most of the human races know the three religions.

But the Western religion is limited to the western continent. On that barren land, there are only a few tribes, and the number of them is not large.

Although there is Emperor Yao's propaganda this time, the Western religion is too remote compared to the human race, but fortunately, there are still some people who believe in the Western religion, which also makes the Western religion flourish in the east.

And Shun's master is the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit under the master of the Jiejiao Tongtian sect. As for the chief disciple of the Jiejiao, Duobao Taoist, Tongtian arranged for him to be the last teacher of the emperor.

After Shun ascended the throne as the co-lord of the human race, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit naturally accompanied him, solving his worries and problems, and teaching him the method of cultivation.

With the support of Jiejiao, Emperor Shun began to let go, starting with the stars.

By observing the Big Dipper, Emperor Shun investigated whether there was any abnormality in the movement of the sun, moon, and the five stars of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Then a temporary ceremony was held to sacrifice to the saints, the four seasons of heaven and earth were sacrificed with the ritual of burning sacrifices on the fire, the famous mountains and rivers were sacrificed with the ritual of remote sacrifice, and various gods were generally sacrificed.

He collected five kinds of jade talismans of Huangui, Xingui, Gonggui, Gubi and Pubi held by the princes, sons and fifth grade marquises. He chose a good month and an auspicious day, summoned Siyue and prefects of various states, and awarded them.

When Shun went to the east to inspect, when he came to Mount Tai, he used the ceremony of burning firewood to sacrifice to Dongyue, and used the ceremony of remote sacrifice to worship famous mountains and rivers in various places.

Immediately afterwards, he summoned the princes of the East to coordinate and correct the four seasons, the size of the moon, and the first and second days of the sun, and to unify the temperament and the standards of length, capacity, and weight.

The five ceremonies of Mingji, Ji, Bin, Jun, and Jia are revised, and it is stipulated that the princes use five kinds of guibi and three kinds of colorful silk, and the high officials use two kinds of animals, lamb and wild goose.

The scholars used the dead pheasants as presents at the court meeting, and the five kinds of guibi were still returned to the princes after the court ceremony.

Shun explained the way of governing the country to the princes in general, inspected clearly according to the achievements, and gave chariots and horses according to the merits. Shun began to divide the world into twelve states, and dredged the rivers and rivers.

It is stipulated that law enforcement should be carried out according to normal penalties, and the five punishments of tattooing, nose cutting, amputation of feet, castration, and beheading should be reduced by exile.

Those who are negligent due to disasters will be pardoned; those who persist in doing harm will be punished.

At this time, when Shun was on a tour, he exiled Huandou to Chongshan to change the customs of the Southern Man, and moved the Sanmiao to Sanwei Mountain to change the customs of Xirong. What Shun did was pleasing to the world.

However, there were unforeseen circumstances. In the later period of Shun's reign, heavy rains and floods occurred in the wilderness, and the disasters became more and more serious. This time, it was not the dragon clan making waves, but a real natural disaster.

Shun was not very proficient in this way, and as a last resort, he handed over the important task of water control to another great sage of the human race, Gun.

Gun's father was Emperor Zhuanxu, Zhuanxu's father was Changyi, and Changyi's father was the Yellow Emperor.

At the beginning, Gun was all famous in the Manchu race, and he was a strong candidate for the position of emperor. Unfortunately, they all became ministers to Zhi later. As a result, after Emperor Yao became the co-lord of the human race, he was deposed.

When Gun was young, he was taught by a god and a man, and he learned a lot of skills. Since he received the task of water control, he has worked hard and worked hard, but no matter how strong Gun is.

How could a single person be able to stop this unparalleled flood? Even if the human race gathered together and worked together, they could not withstand this terrible natural disaster.

However, Gun was obliged to do this matter. After receiving the order from Emperor Shun, Gun packed up his luggage and went to control the flood with everyone.

Gun adopted the method of blocking, using the resting soil left by the Nuwa Empress after creating humans, building dams and mountains to force the flood of the Yellow River to return to its place, and blocking the river to store water, so that the people's agriculture has a source of irrigation.

Although the flood was temporarily calmed down, it was not a long-term direct after all.

Ten years later, the flood broke out again, and it was even more fierce than before. The human race suffered heavy losses for a while, and Gun was beheaded by Emperor Shun for public display.

After Gun's death, a baby was born in the body, which was rescued by Taoist Duobao, the great disciple of Jiejiao.

Duobao entrusts Yu to be raised by Gun's wife, and after knowing what happened to his father, Yu is determined to avenge his father's shame and calm down the flood, so he runs around looking for a good way to control the flood.
