There was a mountain in Huaiyuan County, Anhui Province, which was more than 330 meters above sea level. It was called Tushan. It completely fulfilled the saying that mountains were not high, but immortals were spiritual. Although it was not tall, it carried a historical event.
Si Yu went along the Huai River basin to control the flood to Tushan. A young woman from the Tushan Family tribe stood out among the crowd. She was tall, and her pretty face always had a bright smile. She sang beautiful songs, carried soil and rocks, and built dams with the villagers. She said to her companions," The water flows downward. It should follow the flow of the water. Dig out the places that block the water flow and divert the flood to the rivers and lakes. Only then can the water control be successful.”This sentence drifted into Yu's ears with the wind, and Yu's heart trembled. He met a bosom friend here! Yu liked to work and talk with the Tushan Family women. When they worked and talked with Yu, the Tushan Family women were especially happy. They exchanged glances with each other, and after a short while, they felt like they were missing something.
The Tushan flood-control project was completed. Yu led the flood-control team out of Tushan and made up his mind."I'm thirty this year and still unmarried. I must marry this woman when I return from the flood-control mission.”
After Yu left, the image of Yu wearing a bamboo hat and pulling up his trousers, laughing and laughing with the others, always flashed in her mind. When she was free, she would unconsciously come to the riverside, sit on a rock by the riverside, look at the flowing water, and recall the soberness of working with Yu, then sing,""I'm waiting for you, Xiyi!"
When Yu Zhishui came back, he heard the Tushan girl's singing and saw her waiting here. He proposed to her and held a wedding ceremony in Sangtai (in Cao County, Shandong Province), calling her Nvjiao.
Four days after the wedding, Yu was ordered to go out to control the flood. He went for thirteen years and passed by the house three times without entering. The third time Yu led the flood-control project team past the house, the daughter's son, Si Qi, could already speak. She quickly carried Qi and followed the crowd to see Yu and his flood-control project team. From afar, she saw Yu wearing a bamboo hat and his trousers rolled up high. He walked at the front of the team. She waved at Yu and told Qi to call Yu "Dad". Qi shouted loudly,"Dad, Dad, Dad.”
Yu heard the childish cry of " Daddy " and looked over. He saw Nvjiao and her son in the crowd. He was extremely excited. He wanted to rush in front of Nvjiao and hug and kiss his son who he had met for the first time, but the crowd in the middle blocked them. The crowd behind him surrounded Yu. Yu could only move forward in the crowd of cheering people. He waved his arms at Nvjiao and her son with reluctance. He was getting further and further away from them.
Yu cured the flood, accepted Emperor Shun's abdication, and ascended the throne. Around 2100 B.C., a Vassal Assembly was held in Tushan. Yu stood on the stage, wearing a robe and holding a mysterious Gui. The vassals of the four directions stood on both sides according to the direction of their territory and bowed to Yu together. Yu also bowed on the stage.
Only Fangfeng was late. He was the founder of Fangfeng State (now Deqing County, Zhejiang Province). Yu publicly announced Fang Feng's disobedience and all his past sins, and ordered him to be beheaded.
Yu loudly said to the princes: " My virtue is shallow and my ability is shallow. I'm not strong enough to bear the burden. The purpose of calling everyone to this meeting today is to hope that everyone can clearly and sincerely point out my mistakes. What I feared the most in my life was the word 'pride'. The previous emperor also often warned me to be modest and prudent. If I have any pride, please tell me to my face, and I will listen to your teachings. If I have any pride, if no one says it, they will teach me to be heartless!”
Everyone said that no one in the world could compare to Yu's achievements. He was still so modest and was a good example for everyone to learn from. They all expressed their respect and admiration and sincerely supported Yu.
The historical records said," Yu met with the vassals at Tushan.”The Tushan Assembly was a symbolic event for the establishment of the Xia Dynasty. It was the beginning of the transition from a city-state alliance to a feudal country.
