Who are the three emperors and five emperors respectively?

According to Zhuangzi and Lu Outline, there are Chao's, Sui's and Zhisheng's surnames.

"Tai Ping Guang Ji Lao Zi" said that heaven, earth and people went to Huang San, but there was a nest that embarrassed people and know life was the next Huang San. Since it is called "teacher", it is not a person's name, but a family name. Huang San is the three historical times when there is a nest to solve the problem, a man to solve the problem of eating, and a man to understand life and start production.

2. five emperors

In fact, the five emperors are not five people, but a cycle represented by five behaviors: Fuxi (wood), Shennong (fire), Huangdi (earth), Shao Hao (Hao, Yin Hao) (gold) and Zhuan Xu (zhüanxu) (water). (kà, cool sound, à is its tradition) (wood), Yao (fire), Shun (earth), Yu (gold), Qi.

Among them, Fuxi, Shennong, Huangdi, Yao, Shun and Yu had great influence on the cultural process of China. This is a process from word of mouth to chronology. Fu engaged in animal husbandry and Shennong engaged in agriculture.

Fuxi and Shennong were human beings without surnames, but they should be regarded as a dominant clan for a long time. Fuxi is also called something, which shows that Fuxi culture is characterized by kitchen culture, which is based on the emerging animal husbandry. Fuxi painted hexagrams and tied characters, indicating that our ancestors had both material production and spiritual production.

The Outline of Zhiyi Lu said that Shennong "passed on to the eighth generation". It is two different "Shennong" who promoted the Yellow Emperor and was replaced by the Yellow Emperor. After the Yellow Emperor, he stopped calling his surname, that is, he was no longer a clan, but an individual. In Tang Yao, we will have a continuous chronological record of Jiazi.

Lun Gang Zhi Yi Lu holds that "Don Chen Jia Yao Di is yuan zai". Let's calculate by the date of Jiazi. This Chen Jia is in 2357 BC. According to astronomical records, Tang Yao was 4500 years ago, which is generally good with Chen Jia's calculation.
