Zhongkang served as a puppet for 13 years
After his death, his son Xiang succeeded to the throne.
But I can’t enjoy this
A soulless puppet life
Abandoned the throne after 28 years on the throne
He defected to Zhenxun and Zhenguan II, who had the same surname as Xia.
From then on, the descendants officially became kings.
Although the power is monopolized
But like Taikang, he is obsessed with playing and hunting
Ignore national affairs
Despite the pain
Lessons from the past
But the descendants don't care

Seeing that Shaokang is very hardworking and capable
Then he betrothed his younger daughter to Shaokang
Granted Shaokang some fields and a small number of guards
He also handed over a small tribe of his to Shaokang for management.
After Shao Kang had his own base,
He began to continuously recruit people from lower ethnic groups and set up officials and responsibilities.
Just like a decent little court
Later, Shaokang sent a female spy daughter
Go to Han Zhuo's court to spy on information
The first female spy in Chinese history
A few more years passed
With the support of intelligence from both tribes

Finally, he went to the country's army to patrol the capital.
At this time, Han Zhuo did not dare to challenge
He will only hide in the deep palace and keep growing
Han Zhuo's generals saw that the situation was over
It is only a matter of time before the city is destroyed and the army is defeated.
In order to give myself and my family a way to survive
These generals suddenly mutinied and entered the harem

How to blackmail and exploit people
In the end, he got even more favor from Jie
The luxurious expenses of the Xia Dynasty royal family
All these burdens fall on the people at the bottom
National life is difficult
The annual grain harvest makes it difficult to even feed and clothe ourselves.
If there is a natural disaster
It will also lead to the death of families and starvation in the wilderness.
People in the Xia Dynasty often looked up at the sun
And cursed summer festivals, food days, mourning and diseases, humiliation and evil death
It means when will you perish?
I would rather perish with you
at the same time
Relations between the four princes deteriorated
The Wang family in the Xia Dynasty was in trouble internally and externally

Only in this way can the world be stable
Only a dynasty can be stable
Now His Majesty is extravagant and murderous.
The people of the world rebelled and perished
Your Majesty has lost the support of the people
Only by looking back and correcting mistakes can we stabilize the country and the country.
Jay was completely furious after hearing this
First, he scolded Guan Longpang
He was later ordered to be executed
Xia Jie has always compared himself to the sun in the sky
Thinks his rule is like the sun
is eternal
Then they summoned the leaders of various ministries to prepare for war
