Asking about the origins of the Central Plains, starting from Dayu's water control, the tribal leader Dayu led the people to deal with the floods. He did not enter his family three times. He persisted in fighting the floods and finally succeeded. Dayu's performance in the water control process has been recognized, and the excellent quality and perfect performance also made Dayu attract the attention of tribal leaders and imitate Yao's abdication.
By making Dayu the new leader of the tribe, the flood will be completely under control. At this time, the tribe leader Dayu assumes the responsibility of benefiting the people. Under his leadership, people restored production and life and lived a happy life. These achievements further enhanced Dayu's reputation. Dayu took advantage of this trend and the Xia Dynasty was established and became a respected leader.
When Prince Dayu traveled through the Tushan Mountains, he summoned the world to pay tribute to their leader Dayu and provide treasures as a mark of respect. After Dayu received a large amount of materials, he ordered nine huge three-piece statues made of bronze. The mountains and rivers of the Central Plains are engraved on these feet, and then these three feet are moved back to the palace in Kyushu as a unit. Later generations also used the tripod as the symbol of the ruler, the symbol of the Central Plains.
The Jiuding also became a symbol of the Central Plains. At that time, all the princes wanted to obtain the Jiuding to prove their identity. Therefore, in the continuous war, the Jiuding was fought for and eventually disappeared. In the separatist system implemented by the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor was respected by the princes and was involved in the three pillars. During the Warring States Period, King Huai of Chu wanted to replace the King of Zhou, so he went to the palace to ask for the weight of the Jiuding. He wanted to make nine people with three legs, but was rejected by the minister Wang Sunman, who said that the emperor trusted Dezhi, so he ruled Jiuding, so your country is capable of Jiuding, and without matching Dezhi, you cannot trust Jiuding to rule the world.
Xia Jie was very confused. This tripod came from the Shang Dynasty. King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty was very cruel. This tripod came from the Zhou Dynasty. The emperor is virtuous, even if the tripod is light, it cannot be moved. If the emperor has no virtue, even if the tripod weighs as much as Mount Tai, it will be easy for others to carry it. Now the Emperor of Zhou is so good that you cannot ask the weight of the tripod. King Huai of Chu was blamed for being stupid, speechless and disgraced. From then on, people claimed to be in power It's "victory".
