Chapter 95 Yunxiao cuts off the corpse, and Emperor Shun succeeds to the throne
Chapter 95: Yunxiao beheads the corpse, Emperor Shun succeeds to the throne
However, the demon clan planned to destroy the human race, and under the guidance of the Kunpeng poison plan, the demons planned to launch the Yellow River flood. Emperor Yao was old and his health was not as good as before, and he could no longer properly handle many things in the human race. So Emperor Yao summoned all the ministers and asked, "I have been in power for seventy years, and now I am late in the west. I should follow the destiny of heaven and find a great wise man to take over my throne. Who are you? Even if that's right."
After hearing this, the ministers talked about each other. After a while, Fang Qi said carefully: "Dan Zhu Tongda, the son of the Communist Lord, can take over the position of the Human Emperor."
Emperor Yao said disdainfully: "Hmph! Danzhu is, he is stupid and vicious, and he is inappropriate to use it."
After hearing this, everyone was silent. Danzhu was Emperor Yao's most beloved son. Now that Emperor Yao was excluded, everyone lost the recommended partner. After a moment of silence, everyone began to discuss the candidate again. In the end, everyone finally reached a consensus and said, "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor Xuanyuan has a grandson named Gun. He has extensive knowledge and extraordinary skills. He is praised by everyone in the world, and is enough to take on this important task."
When Emperor Yao heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a while. He was about to agree, but his heart suddenly moved. Emperor Yao's eyes rolled, and then he stroked his beard and said, "This person is indeed good, but I'll recommend a few more, don't miss it."
When everyone heard this, they realized the truth and started to discuss again. Suddenly, the minister Siyue said to Yao: "There is a man named Yu Shun who lives among the people. He has good virtues. He just doesn't know if he can be competent for the position of communist ruler."
Emperor Yao said: "Well, this person has also heard of it, but I don't know what it is. Let's talk about it carefully."
Siyue replied, "Shun lives in a family environment where "father is stubborn, mother is arrogant, and elephant is arrogant". His father, Weisou, is a blind man with a bad mind. His stepmother is two-faced, and his younger brother is unruly. A few people collude with each other and will try to kill Shun to death. However, Shun is very filial to his parents and is very friendly to his younger brother. He has been doing all these years without any slackness. When Shun is trying to harm him, he escapes in time. If there is a slight improvement, he will return to them immediately and give as much help as possible. His life is so unfortunate and the environment is so bad, Shun can live in harmony with his family, perform filial piety and brotherhood, and manage his family well so that they will not go to evil."
Yao said, "Then I'll try him first."
So Emperor Yao married his two daughters Ehuang and Niaoying to Shun, and observed his virtues from his two daughters to see if he could manage the housekeeping. 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. Both daughters were very fond of Shun and abide by the way of being a wife.
Shun made pottery, which could motivate people around him to work hard, strive for excellence, and eliminate shoddy manufacturing. Wherever he went, people were willing to follow him, so "in one year, he lived in a gathering (climbing villages), two years, and three years, he became a town (four counties were capitals). Yao was very happy to learn about these situations, and gave Shun a robe (small geese) and a zither, cattle and sheep, and also built a warehouse for him.
Jasou still wanted to kill him, so he asked Shun to climb up to repair the barn with soil, but Jasou set fire from below. Shun protected himself with two hats, jumped down like he had wings, and escaped, so he was able to survive. Later Jasou asked Shun to dig a well again. When Shun was digging a well, he dug a secret passage from the side wall to lead to the outside. Shun dug to the depths, Jasou and Xiang poured soil down to fill the well together. Shun went out of the secret passage next to him and escaped again.
The sau and Xiang were very happy and thought Shun was dead. Xiang said, "I was the one who came up with this idea at first." Xiang and his parents divided Shun's property and said, "I have to marry Yao's two daughters and the piano that Yao gave him. Let the cattle, sheep and barn belong to their parents." Xiang then lived in Shun's house, playing Shun's piano.
After Shun came back, he went to visit him. Xiang was very shocked, and then looked depressed and said, "I am missing you, I am so depressed!"
Shun said, "Yes, you are so brotherly!" Shun was still treating his parents as before, loving his brothers, and being 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 take the post of Situ to be responsible for promoting moral education. Shun taught his subjects to guide his behavior with the five virtues of "Five Codexes", namely, father's righteousness, mother's kindness, brother's friend, brother's respect, and son's filial piety. The subjects were willing to obey his teachings and generally acted in accordance with the "Five Codexes".
Yao also asked Shun to take charge of all officials and handle government affairs. All officials obeyed Shun's command, and everything was revitalized, and it was completely organized and unconventional.
Yao also asked Shun to receive the princes who came to pay homage to the four gates of Mingtang. Shun got along well with the princes, and also made the princes harmonious and friendly. The princes and guests from afar respected him very much.
Finally, Yao asked Shun to go to the forest at the foot of the mountain alone and withstood the test of nature. Shun was able to avoid losing his direction and still walk on the road in the storm and thunderstorm, showing strong ability to live.
After many tests, Yao saw Shun's extraordinary talent and noble character. Shun finally got Yao's recognition, so Emperor Yao ordered people to prepare and plan to pass on the position of the Communist ruler to Shun.
A few days later, everything was ready. Emperor Yao worshipped the saints and the former emperor, and officially passed on the position of the Communist Lord to Shun, and he went to Huoyun Cave to practice in seclusion.
Just after Emperor Yao's merit was fulfilled, Yunxiao, who was thousands of miles away, also gained a lot of merit by assisting Emperor Yao in achieving enlightenment. After the merit was reduced, Yunxiao was suddenly filled with golden light, and the three flowers bloomed. Above it was a golden gold bucket and a gold with wings. It was Yunxiao's Hunyuan gold bucket and Luobao money.
At this time, the outline of a figure gradually became clearer on the three flowers of Yunxiao. After a while, the figure had become solid. The man opened his eyes, jumped down from Qingyun, bowed to Yunxiao and said, "I have seen fellow Taoists, congratulations to fellow Taoists for successfully killing the corpse. The road is expected."
Yunxiao smiled slightly and replied, "Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be polite, you and I should be happy together." The man laughed, and then turned into a stream of light and flew into Yunxiao's body, disappearing.
Seeing this, Yunxiao sat cross-legged again, quietly realizing the harvest of this corpse-killing.
At the same time, in the Biyou Palace on Penglai Island, Tongtian and Houtu sat opposite each other in the cloud bed. At this time, Tongtian was playing with a fan in his hand, which was fascinated by seeing. This fan was made of five-colored divine light and many merits. Everything within the five elements is brushed. Now, after being refined by Tongtian, it is even more confusing when it is swung. It is extremely powerful. Tongtian named it the Five Elements Merit Fan. Houtu, who was sitting opposite, has long been used to his appearance, and it is not surprising.
