More than 500 years later, Shennong, the boss of Huaxia Group, declined. All tribes ignored Shennong and attacked each other for the position of the boss. In the face of the current situation, the Yellow Emperor chose to maintain the authority of Shennong, "collecting by war but not enjoying it" [1], conquered the tribes that did not worship or listen to Shennong by force, and seized the political commanding heights.

It may sound strange to say, "I'm used to fighting for what I don't want." Let's put it another way: "support the emperor and make the princes." Everyone is familiar with this statement and immediately thinks of Cao Cao's name. Rizo said that "Zuo Gong made the world by the emperor" [2], and Zhuge Liang also pointed out that "Fuck ... relying on the emperor to make the princes" [3], but in fact Cao Cao's strategy was that Mao Jie proposed "Fengtian Zi made the princes" [4]. In troubled times, the expressions of "relying on the son of heaven to make princes" and "serving the son of heaven to make princes" are almost the same. Although there is only one word difference between carrying and service, the actual meaning is completely different. One is a loyal minister and a talented person, and the other is a traitor.

Throughout the five thousand years, Qi Huan and Jin Wen served Tian Zi, but they did not replace him. They were highly praised by later generations. Cao Wei and Yang Sui, who were replaced by emperors, could not escape a word, but Sima Jin and Zhu Liang were constantly criticized by later generations, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Five Dynasties were even more farce; As the descendants of the emperor, Huo Guang, Dong Zhuo and Can Tang, we have worked hard one by one, and even now we report it without being judged by future generations; On the contrary, it is the Phoenix Emperor, who has established the eternal achievements and spread the eternal reputation. As the ancestor of the Chinese nation, only the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan is the only one! It can be seen that the later generations' evaluation of the Yellow Emperor: "Born as a god, weak but able to speak, young but not biased, long and sensitive, successful and intelligent" [5], it is no exaggeration!

As for the specific ways and means of the Yellow Emperor's dedication to Tian Zi, it has not been handed down. This may be the reason why later imitators can't learn, can't escape a "shoulder" or pure bad comments, and even a treacherous person like Cao can't understand it. The political level of the Yellow Emperor can be seen.
