Of course, the nine suns came out in the era of Mr. Yi Fangxun. Judging from modern knowledge, it is obvious that it is a trick to deceive the common people. Guilty, the sin is not with me, but with the sun.When the severe drought is about to end, teach Mr. Hou Yi to stand on the top of the mountain and draw a bow and shoot arrows randomly. Then, he will carry nine dead crows down the mountain and shout that the monster has been killed. ——This kind of program also appeared in Judaism. Mr. Moses climbed to the top of the mountain alone, worked for a few days, and came down with a gold medal with the Ten Commandments written on it.Although their traces are different, their feelings are the same.

Against this background, Mr. Si Gun was destined to play a tragic role. Mr. Hou Yi appeared only when the drought was over, but Mr. Si Gun appeared when the flood was in full swing. With the knowledge and tools available at that time, , It is simply impossible to undertake such a great project.An example can illustrate the difficulties Mr. Si Gun is facing. If he wants to dig a cave or a channel, he has neither dynamite to blast a gap, nor an iron ax, copper hammer and electronic drill to open a road in the mountains. bridge.He has only one method, which is to concentrate his efforts on building dikes.This is easier than digging mountains. There are many loess and gravel, as long as they can be moved, they are ready-made materials.

The problem is that the embankment cannot hold back the impact of the flood and continues to breach.Mr. Si Gun is an experienced expert, but the method he used to deal with Xiaochuan and Xiaohe is completely out of order now.However, what prompted his death was not that he failed to control the water, but that he offended Mr. Yao Chonghua, who was in power at home and abroad, and who was secretly trying to usurp the throne.

Not long after he entered the central government, he gradually brought all military and political departments under control.At first, he rejected his brother-in-law, Mr. Danzhu, the legal heir to the throne, which made the father, Mr. Yi Fangxun, loathe his own son.Or, Mr. Yi Fangxun doesn't hate his own son, but he can no longer protect him.We don't know when Mr. Yi Fangxun realized that power had slipped through his fingers. We only know that it was too late when he found out that he could no longer command important law enforcement officials.In order to save the life of his own son, he painfully declared: "If I hand over power to Yao Chonghua, the country will benefit, and only my son will be harmed. If I hand over power to my son, the country will be harmed, and only my son will be harmed." benefit."

The original text of "Historical Records": Granting Shun will benefit the world, but Danzhu will be sick.Granting Danzhu will make the world sick, and Danzhu will benefit from it.Mr. Yi Fangxun had no choice but to announce this, otherwise, Mr. Danzhu might be wiped out.Mr. Yi Fangxun vowed: "We will never benefit one person (Danzhu) with the disease of the world." In the end, Mr. Yao Chonghua was promoted to "do the work of the Son of Heaven"-acting king.
