A famous dutiful son in the history of China.

Shun, a legendary ancient emperor and one of the five emperors, was named Yao, Zhong Hua and Shi Yu, and was called Yu Shun in history. According to legend, Shun's family is very poor. Although he is a descendant of Emperor Xiang Ying, the fifth generation is a lower class, in the lower class of society. Shun's experience is more unfortunate. His father was blind and his mother died young. The police continued to get married, and the stepmother gave birth to a brother named Xiang.

Shun lives in a family environment of "stubborn father, arrogant mother, arrogant elephant". His father has ulterior motives, his stepmother is duplicitous, his younger brother is unruly, and several people collude with each other before they want to kill Shun. However, Shun is filial to his parents and friendly to his younger brother. He hasn't slacked off for many years.

When his family wanted to hurt him, Shun escaped in time, a little better, and immediately returned to them to help him as much as possible. Therefore, if you want to kill, you can't get it, that is, you want it, which is a unique aspect of his legendary story. His life experience is so unfortunate and the environment is so bad, but Shun can show extraordinary moral character and handle family relations well.

Shun was born in a poor family, engaged in all kinds of manual labor and experienced ups and downs. He farmed in Lishan, fished in Leize and made pottery on the banks of the Yellow River. In short, he has a hard life, is on the move, and runs around to support his family.

According to legend, Shun became famous at the age of 20. He is famous for his filial piety. Because he can stick to filial piety to his parents who abused and persecuted him, he was called Yang in his youth. 10 years later, Yao asked Siyue (the head of the four governors) for an heir, and Siyue recommended Shun. Yao married his two daughters to Shun to test his character and ability.

Shun not only made the two daughters live in harmony with the whole family, but also showed outstanding talents and noble personality strength in all aspects. Later, Yao asked Shun to participate in politics, manage officials, receive guests and undergo various tempering. Shun was finally recognized by Yao. An auspicious day was chosen for the ceremony. After Shun ascended the throne, Yao Chan went to see his father, still respectfully, and made him a vassal.
