The legend of Yao Shunyu

According to the legends of Huangdi and Yao Shunyu, Huangdi was the leader of a tribal alliance in the Yellow River valley, who lived about 4, years ago. He advocated planting grains and domesticating livestock, which made this tribal alliance gradually stronger. Later, the Huangdi tribe and the Yandi tribe in the west joined forces. Defeated the southern flies (ch! ) especially the tribe. The Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor were combined together, and after a long period of development, they formed the Huaxia nationality in the future.

According to legend, the war between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou took place in Zhuolu. Chiyou cast a spell, and it was foggy for three days and nights, and no one was seen on the opposite side. The Yellow Emperor ordered the construction of a south guide car, identified the direction, defeated Chiyou, and finally captured and killed him.

after the yellow emperor, the outstanding leaders of tribal alliances in the yellow river valley were Yao (y2o), Shun (sh)n) and Yu (Y (). At that time, the leader of the tribal alliance was elected. When Yao was old, a tribal alliance meeting was held, and everyone elected Shun, who was talented and virtuous, as his successor. After Yao's death, Shun inherited Yao's position. When Shun was old, he also took the same way to give up his position to Yu, who had made contributions to water control. This method of replacing the leader's position is called "abdication" in history.

according to legend, Yao is very frugal. He lives in a hut, eats brown rice, drinks potherb soup and wears a linen coat. Shun has a good moral character and can set an example. He plowed in Lishan, and the people in Lishan no longer fought for the field boundary, and they were very humble to each other. People are willing to live near Shun. Shun lived in a place for three years, and it became a village. He won widespread praise from the people. During the Yao and Shun dynasties, there was a serious flood. Shun ordered Yu to control water. Yu introduced water into the sea by dredging. He devoted himself to water control, and for 13 years, he went in the wind and rain, and went through the house three times without entering. The flood finally stopped and the people lived a peaceful life. Yu established prestige in the hearts of the people.
