Honghuang: Pangu's First Disciple

Emperor Shun also had other intentions in his heart.

With such great contributions, Dayu has become a strong contender for the future leader of the human race, but Emperor Shun already had a candidate for this.

Shun's concubine Ehuang was infertile throughout her life. However, Nv Ying gave birth to nine sons in a row, eight of whom were talentless and mediocre, but Yijun was smart, so he was granted the title of Shang and was named Shangjun.

This Shangjun was the candidate for the next leader in Emperor Shun's mind.

But Shangjun's prestige was far inferior to that of Emperor Shun, so how could he compare with Dayu who was in the limelight today?

Therefore, Emperor Shun was even more afraid of Dayu, fearing that after his death, Dayu would launch a rebellion and seize the position of leader.

Today, Dayu has countless people of the human race grateful to him, and during the flood control period, Dayu gathered troops and concentrated power from all parties.

Now Dayu has established a system centered on himself and beyond his control. His power is huge and not much less than himself.

Therefore, Emperor Shun did not dare to act rashly, but just kept appeasing him, and at the same time let his son Shang Jun gradually get involved in government affairs, trying every means to improve Shang Jun's reputation.

At this time, there were more and more proposals from the human race to reward Dayu, and Emperor Shun was under increasing pressure.

In the end, under pressure from everyone, Emperor Shun had to order to reward Dayu.

Emperor Shun gave Dayu a black jade sceptre at the human race sacrificial ceremony to commend his achievements and announced to the heaven and earth that the flood control was successful and the world was well governed.

Emperor Shun also played a trick this time. The reason why he insisted on rewarding Dayu at the sacrifice was to make the human race think that the success of the flood control was the blessing of the gods.

He wanted to reduce Dayu's prestige.

After rewarding Dayu, Emperor Shun hurriedly ordered Shang Jun to speed up his familiarity with government affairs.

Unfortunately, there are unexpected events. In the 39th year of his reign, Emperor Shun went to the south to patrol. When he passed through the Cangwu wilderness, he suddenly became very nervous and fainted.

The ministers tried to rescue him for three days and three nights before he woke up.

However, at this time, Emperor Shun's eyes were dull, his face was pale, and his whole body was weak.

Emperor Shun knew that he didn't have much time left, and Shang Jun failed to convince the people. Emperor Shun sighed. After thinking about it, Emperor Shun called all the ministers together. Looking at Dayu below, Emperor Shun had a complicated look in his eyes.

Finally, Emperor Shun supported himself and said to Dayu with trembling lips:"Dayu, I know you have been brooding over the fact that I beheaded your father Gun. In fact, how could I bear to behead him? But if I didn't behead Gun, how could I give an explanation to the people of the world?!"

Hearing this, Dayu clenched his fists, and was hesitant to speak......

Emperor Shun ordered Dayu to come forward, then took Dayu's hands, shook his head and said,"You don't need to say more! I know that the end is coming. From now on, I will hand over the human race to Shang Jun. You must assist him well!"

Dayu lowered his head and remained silent.

Emperor Shun had no choice but to turn to the ministers and said,"No one is a saint. Who can be without fault? After a lifetime, flaws are inevitable. It is great to know mistakes and correct them. The majesty of the emperor is obtained by the respect of the people.

Now I issue a self-criticism edict to the people of the world to clear Gun's name and show Dayu's virtue."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dayu finally reacted. He choked and said,"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will lead our human race well and assist His Highness Shang Jun wholeheartedly, and live up to the teachings of the saints and emperors!" When Emperor

Shun heard this, a trace of red appeared on his pale face, and he said loudly,"Then I can go with peace of mind!" After speaking, he smiled and died.

Seeing this, the ministers knelt down on the ground and cried.

I saw a nine-clawed dragon suddenly fly out from Emperor Shun, circling nine times over the Cangwu Plain, and then flew up to the sky with a roar, flying towards the direction of Huoyun Cave!

However, the failure of Emperor Shun's reign did not allow Chi Jingzi to gain much merit, and he did not cut off his corpse in the end.

This scene disappointed Yuanshi Tianzun and made him hate Tongtian even more.

Besides, after Emperor Shun died, Shang Jun and Dayu led a group of people to pay nine respects to the place where the nine-clawed dragon disappeared, and then took Emperor Shun's body back to the capital, announcing to the world that the whole country was in mourning!

After the mourning, according to the will of Emperor Shun before his death, Shang Jun ascended to the position of co-lord.

In order to avoid suspicion, Dayu hid in Yangcheng.

After Shang Jun succeeded to the throne, his prestige was too small, and the princes of the world saw it and were dissatisfied in their hearts.

They left Shang Jun one after another and went to see Dayu.

In this way, under the support of the princes and repeated competitions, Shang Jun finally had no choice but to abdicate.

At the age of 53, Yu officially ascended the throne as the common leader of the human race, with Anyi as the capital, the country was named Xia, and the surname was Si, known in history as Xia Yu. After Xia Yu succeeded to the throne, he enfeoffed Dan Zhu in Tang and Shang Jun in Yu, and changed the calendar to the Xia calendar, with the month of Jianyin as the first month.

At the same time, the tribes in the Central Plains had gradually formed a leadership group centered on the Xia tribe. Xia Yu's position in this group had begun to take on the nature of royal power.

He asked Gao Yao, who was in charge of punishment during the flood control, to formulate some regulations. If any tribe did not obey his orders, they would be punished.

Time flies, and more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. The human race officially recovered from the decline of Emperor Shun and truly entered a period of prosperity.

At this time, Xia Yu was already in his old age, and even the next emperor of the human race had been selected, but he could not prove the way of the emperor of the human race for a long time, which surprised him a little.

At this time, his contribution to the human race was far greater than that of the emperor of the human race Xuanyuan, but he failed to prove the way, which seemed to be missing something.

Dayu hurriedly asked his teacher, the Holy Mother Guiling.

The Turtle Spirit Mother smiled and said,"If you want to be perfect, you need to cast nine tripods to suppress the luck of the Nine Provinces!"

After Dayu understood, he began to order people to cast nine tripods.

And each tripod collects the blood of all human beings.

These nine tripods are Ji Ding, Yan Ding, Qing Ding, Xu Ding, Yang Ding, Jing Ding, Yu Ding, Liang Ding, and Yong Ding.

Each tripod has a strange beast.

When the nine tripods were completed, the heavenly calamity came, dark clouds gathered in the sky, lightning flashed in the clouds, and there was a rolling thunder.

A flash of lightning fell, and everyone present was seriously injured. The nine tripods were also shaken, soaring into the air and rolling.

Dayu led all the human race to kneel down and pray, using faith to support the Nine Provinces Tripod.

The endless power of faith of the human race condensed into shape in an instant, protecting the nine tripods.

After a moment, the heavenly calamity subsided, and the nine tripods were finally completed.

And now the nine tripods have been condensed into a huge tripod that reaches the sky and stands in front of everyone.

Seeing this, Xia Yu walked to the giant tripod and urged all his magic power to pour into the tripod.

The giant tripod emitted a dazzling golden light, and then split into nine parts, flying to the main veins of the nine states in the Central Plains, and then began to gather spiritual energy and set up the nine states barrier.

This tripod has blessed the human race's luck, and the blood and essence of the entire human race have actually reached the level of acquired treasures, which is enough to suppress the human race's luck!
