When he was thirty years old, Yu met Nvjiao, the daughter of the Tushan clan, in Tushan. They fell in love at first sight, and then Yu and Nvjiao entered into the palace of marriage. Nvjiao's ancestry was the powerful Tushan clan of Dongyi. At that time, Tushan The family was still in the late matrilineal stage, so Yu could only be a door-to-door son-in-law, and "the husband lived with the wife."
Despite this, Yu received strong support from Dongyi, and from then on he had the foundation to establish his career. At this moment, Yu and Nvjiao were in a sweet time, and they were so unhappy. Emperor Shun ordered people to inquire about Yu's deeds, and people continued to come after him. In return, Emperor Shun became more and more relieved.
However, Emperor Shun still had some doubts in his heart, so he summoned the ministers and asked: "Last time, you recommended Yu as the person to control the water. I thought about it carefully and thought it was feasible. However, I have never heard of Gun. I have an heir, but I don’t know why?”
One of his subordinates came out and said cautiously: "It is said that Yu was not born from Gun's wife Nv Zhi, but was obtained by caesarean section after Gun's death. Now he is taught by Taoist Duobao, his senior fellow teacher." After hearing this, Emperor Shun was stunned. , turned a little pale, and was speechless for a while. After a while, he asked in surprise: "Is there really such a weird thing?"
At this time, another person came out and said: "Don't be surprised, co-master. I think there are many such things in our human race. Emperor Fuxi was conceived by his mother, Queen Hua Xu, who stepped on the giant seal of Lei Ze, and Emperor Shennong of Earth was born by his mother. Later, Ren Si saw a dragon and became pregnant. If Yu had a vision, wouldn't it prove that this son is extraordinary?" After hearing this, Emperor Shun felt relieved and ordered Yu to come and see him!
When Yu was newly married, he suddenly received an order from Emperor Shun, so the couple reluctantly said goodbye. From then on, Yu embarked on the road of water control. Before leaving, Yu made a special trip to see his teacher, Taoist Duobao. At that time, Duobao sighed, took out a roll of bamboo slips from his body, handed it to Dayu, and then said: "This is your father's relic. Now that the son has inherited his father's legacy, it is time for you to take over. This time, I will go to control the floods. I will help you later."
And Duobao was not unprepared. He took out two more things and handed them to Dayu, saying: "These two things were specially made for you by my master. The ax is called Kaishan, which can be used to dredge rivers and divert water to its place. The stick is called Dinghaishenzhen." , can be used to detect water levels and stabilize the sea. I hope you can put it to good use."
Dayu saw the water control experience left by his father on the scroll of bamboo slips, and combined with his own insights, he came up with the famous saying of "blocking is worse than sparing", so he set out for the human capital to meet the common leader of the human race, Shun.
In the capital, after meeting Shun, Dayu proposed a method to control the water, which was better than blocking the water. After listening to Yu's method of controlling the water, Shun realized that it was feasible and immediately made Yu the time and space to take charge of water control. Yu naturally would not back down, so he took the post.
After Yu was appointed by the Emperor, he immediately joined forces with Yi and Hou Ji to summon the people from all over the world to come to help. He inspected the river and reviewed the reasons for Gun's failure. He decided to reform the method of water control and changed the method of water control to channeling. Crossing the river, holding tools, from west to east, measuring the height of the terrain, setting benchmarks, and planning waterways.
He led the migrant workers working on water control all over the country. According to the benchmarks, they dug up mountains and built embankments wherever they encountered depressions to dredge waterways and divert floodwaters into the sea. Yu worked hard to control the floods. He was not afraid of hard work and never dared to rest.
Not long after his marriage to Nvjiao, a famous female member of the Tushan family, he left his wife and returned to the road of water control. Later, when he passed by the door of his house and heard the sound of his wife giving birth and the sound of his son falling to the ground, he gritted his teeth and did not enter the house. When they passed by three times, his son Qizheng was holding his mother's arms. He already knew how to call his father and waved his little hands to say hello to Yu. Yu just waved to his wife and children to express that he had seen them, but still did not stop.
In the process of digging the mountain, it naturally caused attacks from some demon clans in the mountains and forests. Dayu had no choice but to turn to his teacher, Taoist Duobao, for help, so Taoist Duobao led his disciples to kill and expel these demon clans. Fang ensured that Dayu's flood control went smoothly.
After thirteen years of hard work, they opened up countless mountains, dredged countless rivers, and built countless dams, so that all the rivers in the world flowed to the sea. They finally succeeded in controlling the water and eradicated the flood. The land that had just receded from the flood was too wet. Yu asked Yi to plant seeds for the people and teach them how to grow rice.
Without Wuzhiqi, Dayu's water control became extremely smooth. The ordinary monsters, especially the opponents of Jie Jiao disciples, over the years, in order to control the water, Dayu opened roads in nine mountain ranges and channeled nine rivers. Finally, Introduced the water into the sea.
After Dayu succeeded in controlling the flood, he naturally gained a great reputation among the human race, even surpassing the current co-lord Shun of the human race. For a time, Shun was extremely jealous of Dayu, just like Yu's father Gun succeeded in controlling the flood, so when the flood broke out again Afterwards, Shun took the opportunity to kill Gun.
Although Yu's master was Taoist Duobao, the great disciple of Jiejiao, and came from the same sect as Shun's master Jinling Shengsheng, Shun did not want to pass on the position of co-master of the human race to Yu, so he successfully controlled the water at a ceremony to worship ghosts and gods. The credit goes to the help of ghosts and gods.
After Shun's meritorious deeds were completed, he passed the position of co-lord of the human race to his son Shang Jun. Shang Jun ascended to the position of co-lord. However, in order to avoid suspicion, Dayu hid in Yangcheng. After Shang Jun succeeded to the throne, his prestige It was really too small, and all the princes in the world saw it and felt dissatisfied.
So they all left Shangjun and went to see Yu. In this way, with the support of the princes and repeated contests, Shangjun finally had no choice but to abdicate in favor of a worthy man. The fifty-three-year-old Yu officially ascended the throne as the co-leader of the human race, with Anyi It was the capital city, the country was named Xia, its surname was Si, and it was called Xia Yu in history.
After Xia Yu succeeded to the throne, he entrusted Danzhu to the Tang Dynasty and Shangjun to Yu. He changed the calendar to the Xia calendar and took the month of Jian Yin as the first month. At the same time, various tribes in the Central Plains gradually formed a leadership group centered on the Xia tribe. Xia Yu's position in this group has begun to take on the nature of royal power.
He asked Gao Tao, who was in charge of punishment during flood control, to formulate some regulations. If any clan tribe disobeyed orders, they would be punished with punishment. At that time, Fang Feng, the chief of the Guyue tribe, always wanted to dominate one side and claimed to be the Yue tribe. The leader refused to obey Xia Yu's orders. Xia Yu ordered him to be executed in public at the Miaoshan Assembly and his body was exposed for three days.
The princes and uncles from all over the country knew the power of the Xia Dynasty and the sanctity of Xia Yu, and no longer dared to offend King Yu. When those clans and tribes who did not attend the court meeting with King Yu heard about this, they also paid tribute to the Xia Dynasty and became vassals. From then on, Xia Yu's sphere of influence Reaching the Yangtze River and Huaihe River Basin, his martial arts are so great that he shocks the world and everyone respects him!
In the process of controlling floods, Xia Yu once traveled all over the world and knew the topography, customs, and products of each place very well.
Xia Yu reorganized the world into nine major states (i.e. Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yuzhou, Liangzhou, and Yongzhou), and then managed them and formulated the types of tribute for each state.
Under the propaganda of Xia Yu, Jie Jiao flourished for a time and surpassed the two religions of Ren and Chan and the Western religion. Naturally, Jie Jiao strongly supported Xia Yu. Seeing this, Xia Yu finally felt relieved and turned his attention to In the lives of human beings.
Xia Yu was an ancient politician and great man with great talents and strategies. His water control was combined with governing the country and nourishing the people. While controlling water damage, he often guided people to restore and develop agricultural production, develop water transportation, and rebuild their homes. When governing a place, they take the initiative to unite the chiefs of clans and tribes to improve political power construction so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment.
At this point, due to the first large-scale collective collaboration and dense water network project of the human race, under the wise leadership of Xia Yu, the human race quickly emerged from the shadow of the previous flood, and they also quickly broke through A cage that hinders progress, the human race has entered an unprecedented period of glory!
Xia Yu had been in power for decades, but he still felt that his merits were not full, so he asked his teacher, Taoist Duobao, for advice. Taoist Duobao deduced for a long time before he said: "The human race should establish three emperors and five emperors, so that the destiny of the human race will not decline, and thus You are the last of the five emperors of the human race who will forever maintain your position as the protagonist of heaven and earth. You need to perfect the fate of the human race before you can achieve enlightenment."
After hearing this, Xia Yu thought hard for a long time, and finally came up with a solution. He then ordered people to take the copper from the world, cast a nine-mouth cauldron, and pour the blood of the human race from all over the world into it. He named the Jiuding after the nine states of the human race. They are Jizhou Ding, Yanzhou Ding, Qingzhou Ding, Xuzhou Ding, Yangzhou Ding, Jingzhou Ding, Yuzhou Ding, Liangzhou Ding and Yongzhou Ding.
Xia Yu used the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the nine states of the human race to ensure that the destiny of the human race would not decline. Since then, the last one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors has also perfected his merits and deeds. His merits are far from being comparable to the first four among the Five Emperors. The merits of Emperor Xuanyuan's enlightenment were almost the same.
After Xia Yu became enlightened, he passed on the position of co-leader of the human race to Boyi, the great sage of the human race. However, among the human race, there were many people who were dissatisfied with Boyi's succession. Among them, Xia Yu had the biggest reaction. His son Qi, and most people in his tribe also supported Qi. Although Boyi succeeded to the throne, the ministers under Yu at that time were not optimistic about Boyi, but were more optimistic about the strong and decisive Qi.
After Qi won over the leaders of many human tribes, he successfully emptied Boyi's power and became the actual leader of the human race. Then he launched a coup. Boyi's army was killed and defeated, and Boyi himself was captured. Qi After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to execute Boyi to avoid future troubles.
At this point, Qi had ascended to the position of co-leader through force. After Qi defeated some tribes that supported the abdication system, Qi's rule was confirmed and consolidated. At this time, Qi also officially announced that he would proclaim himself king and establish the Great Xia Dynasty. , the hereditary system of family world finally officially replaced the abdication.
Qi's rebellion was very successful. He quickly suppressed all the opposing forces and made the saints unable to react. By the time the saints saw the chaos in the human race and wanted to seek benefits from it, Qi had already succeeded in his coup. All the saints could only hope. And Xing sighed, the most important thing is that Qi has the full support of Jiejiao, and then naturally there is also the shadow of Tongtianjiao, and the saints are also very helpless.
The rule of the Five Emperors is over.
