It is recorded in the Annals of the Five Emperors that the Yellow Emperor lived on the hill of Xuanyuan and married Leizu, who was the concubine of the Yellow Emperor and gave birth to two sons, one was Qingyang, the other was Changyi, and Changyi's son was Gaoyang , Gaoyang was virtuous, and after the death of the Yellow Emperor, his grandson was established, and this was Emperor Zhuanxu.
Zhuanxu nourishes the material to take care of the earth, the time is like the sky, the earth does its best, and people do their best. The production and farming are in accordance with the solar terms and follow the nature. In the place where the sun shines, there is no disobedience to Zhuanxu, which shows that this is a very good person. Charming emperor.
After Zhuanxu's death, Di Ku inherited the throne. In terms of seniority, Zhuanxu was Di Ku's cousin, and Di Ku was Zhuanxu's cousin. Emperor Ku was also a very capable emperor. Sima Qian said that he was wise to know the distance, sensible to observe the small, obedient to the righteousness of the sky, and aware of the urgency of the people.
Emperor Ku is most famous for his sons. He married Chen Feng, and his son was named Fangxun; he married Qiaozi, and he gave birth to a son named Zhi; Zhi later inherited the throne, but he was incompetent, and Fangxun replaced him. , he is also Yao who is familiar to everyone; there is also a concubine named Jian Di, who got pregnant after picking up a swallow's egg and swallowing it, and gave birth to a son named Qi. Concubine Zheng is Jiang Yuan, who once stepped on the footsteps of giants and gave birth to her son Houji, the ancestor of the Western Zhou people.
I have to say that Di Ku's sons really gave the father a long face, one is the holy emperor, the other is the emperor, the other is the ancestor of Shang Tang, and the other is the ancestor of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
