Five Elements of Ancient Dynasties

Ancient dynasties all had five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. What are the attributes of the five elements of each dynasty in ancient China? I have compiled the five elements of the ancient dynasties here for your reference. I hope you will enjoy it during the reading process. Something gained!

The Five Elements of Ancient Dynasties - Black Empire

The theory of the Five Virtues derived from the theory of the Five Elements is obviously superstitious. However, the more people have, the easier it is to be superstitious; the emperors with the highest power are often the most superstitious group. When Qin Shihuang first united the world, he pushed forward the Five Virtues of the First Emperor and believed that Zhou had the virtue of fire. In the Qin Dynasty, Zhou De was invincible. ?("Historical Records? The Anthology of Qin Shihuang") Zhou was a fire virtue, so Qin Shihuang adopted the water virtue, which was incomparable to Zhou's virtue, and the corresponding color of water virtue was black, ?all his clothes, banners, festival flags were black?, 221 BC , the entire society became a black empire.

The blackness of mountains and rivers is just the color symbol of Qin Shihuang’s adoption of water virtue. Water virtue also means a series of corresponding system changes, which is the most fundamental. ?At the beginning of Shui De, the beginning of the new year, the greetings and greetings all started on the first day of October, and the number was six. The talisman and the dharma crown were all six inches, and the carriage was six feet, the steps were six feet, and the horse was riding six. (Ibid.) More importantly, the country's governance methods are all "black". They think that the beginning of water virtue is resolute and ruthless, everything depends on the law, and there is no benevolence, kindness and righteousness. So the law is urgent, and the person who takes a long time will not be forgiven. ?(Same as above) Perhaps, it is this kind of blackness that predetermines the black tragedy of Qin Shihuang.

With the culturally backward Western barbarians defeating the six civilized Eastern countries, Winning Government needed a set of theories to prove the legitimacy of the Qin Empire. At this time, believers in Zou Yan’s theory came forward, and the Yellow Emperor gained Tu De , the yellow dragon is seen on the ground, the wood is virtuous in summer, the green dragon stops in the suburbs, and the vegetation is luxuriant. Yin gained gold and virtue, and silver overflowed from the mountains. Zhou has the virtue of fire and has the talisman of red crow. Now the Qin Dynasty changes to the Zhou Dynasty, the time of Shui De. In the past, Duke Wen of Qin went hunting and caught a black dragon, which was an auspicious sign of his water virtues. ?("Historical Records? Fengchan Book") This kind of consistent theory of the Five Virtues should be in the heart of Qin Shihuang, and he was "used for me", becoming the first person in history to design a system based on the Five Virtues Theory. and ruling emperors.

Of course, the Five Virtues have always been said not to be a historical law that the emperors believed in, but a tool that paved the way for them to seize power and provided proof of the legitimacy of power. The target is the country's largest investor, Lu Buwei, who has long used the theory of Five Virtues to spread this political superstition for the Qin Dynasty's annexation of the six countries. He said: "Whenever an emperor is about to rise, God will first see it and bring good fortune to the people." During the time of the Yellow Emperor, the sky first saw giant salamanders and giant mole crickets. Huangdi said: "The earth energy is the best!" The earth energy is the victory, so its color is still yellow, and its behavior is earth. At the time of Yu, Heaven saw that vegetation would not be killed in autumn or winter. Yu said: The Qi of wood is victorious! The Qi of wood is victorious, so its color is still green, and its action is wood. When the soup was coming, Heaven saw a golden blade emerging from the water. Tang said, "Gold Qi wins!" Metal Qi wins, so its color is still white, and its actions are golden. During the reign of King Wen, fire first appeared in the sky, and a red bird held an elixir in its mouth. The books were collected in Zhoushe. King Wen said, "Fire energy prevails!" Fire energy prevails, so its color is still red, and its activities are fire. The one who replaces fire will definitely bring water, and the sky will see in advance that the water and energy will prevail. Water qi prevails, so its color is still black, and its behavior is water. ? ("Lu Shi Chun Qiu? Ying Tong") Therefore, it should be the earth virtue of the Yellow Emperor, the wood virtue of the Xia Dynasty, the gold virtue of the Shang Dynasty, the fire virtue of the Zhou Dynasty, and the water virtue of the Qin Dynasty.

?Political power comes from the barrel of a gun? Qin Shihuang, who often killed hundreds of thousands of surrendered soldiers, would not believe any nonsense about virtue. However, Chinese people mostly believe in superstition because it is useful. As a result, once they enter the field of superstition, it is difficult to extricate themselves. Once they take it seriously, they will suffer the consequences. The Five Virtues have always said that the same should be true for Qin Shihuang. His rule of severe punishment and law based on Han Fei's theory was accelerated by the black water virtue of "resolute and ruthless" and "cutting away from kindness, kindness and righteousness". The pace of the fall of the Qin Dynasty. The Five Elements of Ancient Dynasties - The Color Controversy of the Han Dynasty

The starting point of Zou Yan’s theory of the five virtues is the Yellow Emperor, who belongs to the earth virtues. Later, Xia, Shang, Zhou and Qin were wood, metal and fire respectively. , According to this "historical law of God's will", the Han Dynasty revolutionized the Qin Dynasty, Tu conquered the water, and the Han Dynasty should be Tu De. However, Liu Bang believed that the Black Emperor was a water virtue, so the system remained the same as the Qin Dynasty. The official recognition of Tu De by the Han Dynasty was only realized in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty a hundred years after the Liu family was established. In 104 BC, the reform was officially announced, and China changed from a black world to a yellow world. The first month was used as the first month of the year; the color of clothes was still yellow; the number was five; the official seal was changed to five characters.

? (Gu Jiegang, "The Advocacy and Realization of the Ordered Restructuring in the Han Dynasty") Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty promoted the completion of this restructuring by Sima Qian and others, and he has a great contribution to China's another change of color; perhaps, this kind of system that has been established for all ages has given a new look to the world. The feeling stimulated Sima Qian, and he took up the pen this year and began to write the "Historical Records", which will never be forgotten. Among the famous figures of the color revolution in history is Wang Mang, the emperor of the new dynasty who lived one year less than the Qin dynasty. Since the principle of mutual restraint and substitution that the Five Virtues have always said applies to violent revolution, it is difficult for people like Wang Mang who want to give in to "peaceful revolution". Liu Xin, a well-known scholar and colleague of Wang Mang when he was the Minister of Huangmen, creatively proposed the theory that abdication belongs to the coexistence of five virtues, that is, metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, and earth generates metal. He said that Wang Mang, who claimed to be a descendant of Shun, inherited Shun's earth virtue. The Han Dynasty was a descendant of Yao and belonged to the fire virtue. Among the five elements, fire generates earth, so it was natural for the Han Dynasty to abdicate to the new dynasty. In addition to the mutual restraint of the five virtues, there is also the innovative development of the mutual support of the five virtues. Although the so-called concession is still backed by the barrel of a gun, it appears less murderous in appearance. Gu Jiegang once said that since Wang Mang, all changes in dynasties in Chinese history have been abdication, and conquests only occurred when Mongols, Manchus and other foreign races were conquered. The author speculates that it may be influenced by the theory of the mutual generation of the five virtues, and the theory of mutual restraint is rarely used. Of course, the number of killings has never been less!

Due to his meritorious argument, Liu Xin became a national advisor and was named Jiaxingong. However, Wang Mang seemed to really believe Liu Xin's argument. When the Green Forest Army attacked the palace, the women in the palace cried out: "What can we do!" He still imitated Confucius' story and said: "He is born with virtue, so what will the Han soldiers do to him?" !?("Book of Han? Biography of Wang Mang")

Since Wang Mang conferred the title of Fire Virtue on the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu of the Eastern Han Dynasty took advantage of this to carry out the cause of "restoring the old business". ?(Gu Jiegang's "The Reform of Morality in the Han Dynasty") In 25 AD, Liu Xiu became the Huode Emperor, and the national color turned red again. In the Han Dynasty, water virtue, earth virtue, and fire virtue were sometimes observed, which further shows that this superstitious historical explanation is entirely up to people. The Five Elements of Ancient Dynasties - The Changes of National Color

The Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which claimed that "the sky is dead and Huang Tian should stand", was originally a violent revolution, but it was based on the theory of the five mutual restraints and was called Tu De. Build a yellow world. The revolutionary program at that time, the Taiping Jing, proposed that the Eastern Han Dynasty was the king of Fire Virtue, and those who prospered after the decline of the Han Dynasty should be regarded as Tu De. The leader of the uprising, Zhang Jiao, called himself "Huang Tian" to show that he would inherit Han Zuo and rule the world. Unfortunately, his yellow world was not established.

It was Cao Pi who realized his dream of a yellow world. His peaceful way of surrender corresponded to the theory of the mutual development of the five virtues. In 220, he not only restructured the system according to Tu De, but also designated the reign name as Huang Huang Chu?. However, China during the Three Kingdoms period also had three colors, because Liu Bei claimed to be the orthodox of the Han Dynasty and still had the red color of fire virtue; Sun Quan also competed for the yellow fire virtue at the beginning, and later wanted to avenge the Han Dynasty. According to the theory of the five virtues in conflict, It adopts the wood virtue of wood overcoming earth, so the world of Soochow is cyan.

Jin played the trick of abdication again and replaced Wei. So what color and virtue should Jin have? In 266 AD, which is September of the second year of Sima Yantai, the ministers thought? Today The Great Jin Dynasty followed the footsteps of the three emperors, followed the footsteps of Shun and Yu, followed the heavens and the people, and accepted the Zen of Wei. It is appropriate to use the color of Zhengshuo of the previous generation, all like the stories of Yu and Tang, and it is for the sake of justice. ?("Book of Jin? Li Yi")) Sima Yan didn't seem to care about this, so he agreed. A man named Sun Sheng said, "It's still the same, it's not true." Moreover, the Jin Dynasty is a gold industry, and the color of clothes is still red. It is a serious violation to test the way of heaven. ? According to the algorithm of the mutual generation of five virtues, Jin should be Jin virtue and Shang Bai. As a result, Sima Yan listened to the white plan again, and China turned into a sea of ​​white.

The most complex and changeable colors in China were during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Wu Huanhua destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Sima family settled in Jinling to continue the white Jinde. Liu Yuan, the founder of the Northern Han Dynasty, who was originally a descendant of the Xiongnu, was also "polluted" by the theory of "five virtues". He actually regarded the Han Dynasty with the surname Liu as his ancestor, and adopted the red fire virtue of the Eastern Han Dynasty with great righteousness. When his nephew Liu Yao usurped the throne, he adopted the Shui virtue, which was in harmony with the Jin virtue, and promoted it to black. The color of the uniform and flag was changed to black. 16 political regimes in the north came and went, people were displaced, and the color of society was constantly changing.

The colors of the Southern Dynasties were simpler. The Song Dynasty replaced the Jin Dynasty, and gold was derived from water, which was still black; Wood makes fire, Chen Shangchi.

The Sui Dynasty belonged to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which had the virtue of wood and was green, so the Sui Dynasty had the virtue of fire and was still red. Fire generates earth, so the great Tang Dynasty followed the virtues of earth and respected yellow.

During the Five Dynasties, the Later Liang Dynasty destroyed the Tang Dynasty, and gold was born in the land, which was still red; the Later Tang Dynasty claimed to inherit the Tang Dynasty, so it was still Tu De, which was yellow; the Later Jin was Jin De, which was white; the Later Han Dynasty was Shui De, which was black. In the later weeks, wood was still green.

The Song Dynasty accepted Zen in the Zhou Dynasty, and wood made fire, so the Song Dynasty was called the virtue of fire, which was still red; when the Zhao Dynasty moved south, it still had the virtue of fire. Even the title of Emperor Gaozong, Jianyan, means the resurgence of the virtue of fire. The Liao Dynasty had the virtue of water, and the Jin Dynasty preceded the Liao Dynasty and then destroyed the Song Dynasty. It inherited the virtue of fire from the Song Dynasty.

In fact, after the Song Dynasty, it was always said that the Five Virtues basically came to an end among the people. Therefore, the Yuan Dynasty of the Mongolian people has always said that they are not interested in the Five Virtues, although the people think that it is the water virtue; however, in this case, the metal that destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty is the earth of mutual growth, and the Yuan that destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty is the water of mutual restraint. Therefore, the Yuan Dynasty did not have a unified national color.

The Red Scarf Army that Zhu Yuanzhang joined was a result of recognizing the virtue of fire in the Song Dynasty. Red became the most distinctive symbol of the anti-Yuan armed forces. The Ming Dynasty also respected the virtue of fire and respected red. However, according to the theory of mutual growth or mutual restraint, the Ming Dynasty should not be Huo De. However, in the Ming Dynasty, the determination of moral destiny was no longer a top priority related to the orthodoxy of the dynasty. It was no longer a solemn and solemn national behavior. Whether it was fire virtue or soil virtue, they were just some unusual practices popular among the government and the public. Just a formal statement. ?(Note 1)

The Five Virtues have always been said to have been transferred from official theory to folk culture. Therefore, although there was the so-called water that destroyed the Ming Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty, the water virtues were not recognized by the Manchu emperors.

The Five Virtues that have always been said to come back to glory is Yuan Shikai. When he was the Hongxian Emperor, he seemed to recognize the fire virtue of the Ming Dynasty, Shang Chi, and even painted the Forbidden City red. Yuan Shikai's farce ended in dozens of days, the history of the Five Virtues has finally come to an end, and the official national colors are gone.

This theory of the five elements is very interesting. Zou Yan’s theory of the five virtues is said in "Guoyu": "Earth is mixed with metal, wood, water and fire to form all things", and in "Shangshu" there is ?Five elements: the first is water, the second is fire, the third is wood, the fourth is metal, and the fifth is earth. ? records. It was quickly integrated with traditional Chinese medicine. It is said that Bian Que began to use this theory in medicine when he wrote the "Difficult Classic" (originally known as "The Eighty-one Difficult Classics of the Yellow Emperor").

First of all, let’s talk about Xia, ?Xia?, the five elements belong to fire. There are four seasons in a year, spring, summer, autumn and winter. Belonging to all directions. Spring belongs to the east and is wood. Xia belongs to the south and is fire. Autumn belongs to the west and is gold. Winter belongs to the north and is water. Therefore, the Xia Dynasty belongs to the virtue of fire. Furthermore, Xia Yu had meritorious service in controlling the floods, so he used the Dharma to control the floods, which belongs to Mu De. The predecessors failed to control the water by blocking the water, so they used soil to control the water. Among the five elements, water can produce wood, and wood can release water. Therefore, the method of diversion is to use wood virtue to govern it. The dynasty founded by a monarch born in the year of wood is of course born in the year of fire. It's because wood can make fire.

The five elements of the Shang Dynasty were water. The founding king of the Shang Dynasty was named Chengtang. Soup is water. ?成? means generation, meaning achievement. It is the symbol of gold and water. Tang Tang naturally belongs to gold. Chengtang belongs to gold, and the dynasty established belongs to water. Furthermore, 锟斤拷 is a polyphonic character, and there is also a way of pronouncing 锛斤拷. ? Business ? undoubtedly belongs to water. Among the five elements, water can be used as fire. Therefore, Shang can replace Xia.

The Zhou Dynasty was earth. Within the character Zhou, there is a word "Tu" hidden in it. It's Zhao Ran. In the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, *** belonged to Tu De. In the Zhou Dynasty, Jichang founded the country, and Chang was a double day, which is undoubtedly the sign of fire. Therefore, this is fire that can generate earth, and the flame essence is extremely strong, and it has been in existence for more than 800 years. Because earth can absorb water, Zhou can destroy Shang. Later, after the Zhou Dynasty moved to the east, the national power declined day by day. It's because the east belongs to wood, which restrains earth, and breaks Zhou's "feng shui".

Yingzheng’s Qin destroyed Zhou. It is the response of wood overcoming earth. Under the word "Qin" there is a "grain" which seems to belong to wood. The winner has a daughter. The ancients regarded men as yang and women as yin. The south is yang and the north is yin. The north is water, so if the surname Ying belongs to water, he can establish the Qin Dynasty and destroy the Zhou Dynasty.

Liu Bang established the Western Han Dynasty, and the five elements belong to gold. ?Han? seems to belong to water, and the Western Han Dynasty should also belong to water, but it is not. The character "Liu" in traditional Chinese writing has the character "金", which naturally belongs to gold. The word "Bang" means country. Liu Bang means "the country of gold". Because of Liu Bang's special situation, the Western Han Dynasty could only be a metal. Metal specifically defeats wood, so Liu Bang defeated Qin, destroyed Chu (wood), and unified the Central Plains.

Hou Mang usurped the Han Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty was destroyed. People born in the Western Han Dynasty belong to metal and are most afraid of fire. Those who are new are salary.

It is originally a thing that ignites fire, so the new dynasty belongs to fire. Wang Mang is born with grass, which belongs to wood. Wood can make fire, which destroyed the metal-based Western Han Dynasty.

The Eastern Han Dynasty belonged to water and destroyed Mangxin. The Han Dynasty is originally water, and the Western Han Dynasty naturally belongs to water. Later, Cao Wei usurped the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms began.

Among the Three Kingdoms, Shu Han belongs to gold. Because Liu Bei of the Shu Han Dynasty claimed to be the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty after King Jing of Zhongshan, he naturally succeeded the Western Han Dynasty. The Western Han Dynasty belongs to gold, and the Shu Han Dynasty also belongs to gold.

Sun Wu’s zodiac sign is Wood. Since Sun Quan's name contains the character "木", Sun Wu belongs to the genus of wood.

Cao Wei belongs to water. Because the word "Wei" is adjacent to "Gui", ghost means "Gui". Nature is water virtue.

Because the name of Emperor Wu of Cao Wei, Cao Cao, was not good, which ruined Cao Wei's Feng Shui, so Cao Wei was bound to be short-lived.

There is Sun in Cao, which belongs to fire, and there is wood in Cao, which belongs to wood. This is the symbol of making fire from wood. As a result, the power of Cao Wei was exhausted, so Cao Wei was eventually usurped by Sima Jin Dynasty.

For Jin people, there is a sun below, which is the virtue of fire. The Sima family also belongs to the fire virtue. Horse, "Wu" also. ?Wu? is the place where fire virtue is most prosperous.

Because Cao Cao’s tree released water and caused fire, Cao Wei perished in Jin.

After the Western Jin Dynasty, it was destroyed by Liu Yuan's disaster. This is the defeat of water and fire. Coming from the north. Later, the Liu Song Dynasty usurped the Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished. Liu Song was originally a wood and could not destroy Jin. However, the emperor surnamed Liu established the Han Dynasty for more than five hundred years. Liu Yu, whose surname is Liu, used the water of the Han Dynasty to extinguish the fire of the Jin Dynasty, and then regenerated the trees of the Song Dynasty. This is the ability of water to extinguish fire and create wood. From now on in the Southern Dynasties, there will be "Xiao" Qi, "Xiao" Liang, "Chen" and so on, all of which belong to wood.

Let’s talk about the Northern Dynasties. The Northern Wei Dynasty belongs to water, because it is associated with women and ghosts. Later it was divided into the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty. The Zhou Nai soil is used to control water and stand. Qi belongs to wood and stands standing with water flowing out. The dynasty with "Qi" as its national name could not cross Shanxi. This is why wood cannot beat gold. The people of Gaoyang, Gaoyan and Gaozhan in the Northern Qi Dynasty all adhere to the virtue of water, and their country is naturally made of wood. Because wood can conquer earth, in the early years of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they were defeated by Qi.

After the Sui Dynasty. The character Sui contains "left". The left is west and the right is east. On the left is west, and on the west is gold. Therefore, Yang Sui belongs to gold. In the Sui and Jin Dynasties, they defeated Qi and Chen Ermu to unify the Central Plains. (In the late Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty had already sprouted. This is the same as the Sima clan's fire virtue destroyed the Shu Han Dynasty.) Gold emerged from the soil, so the Sui Dynasty usurped the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Because poplar is a tree. And "hard" is gold. The name of the founding emperor was incompatible with gold and wood, and the name of the country was incompatible with his surname, so the Sui Dynasty could not last long.

The Tang Dynasty belongs to the virtue of fire, so it replaces the Sui Dynasty. There was a Tang state in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Later it was changed to Jin. In the Spring and Autumn Period, he was one of the Five Hegemons. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty is the Jin Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty. Jin belongs to fire, and Tang also belongs to fire. The surname Li is wood, and the country is founded on fire. It lasted more than two hundred years.

Later Zhu Wen usurped it. Zhu is fire, and warmth is water. It is like using water to extinguish fire, so Zhu Wen destroyed Tang Liliang. When the Later Tang Dynasty destroyed Liang, it was fire that burned its trees. Zhu Wen's reputation is unfavorable. The country cannot last long. Later Jin Dynasty and later Tang Dynasty were destined. The Jin and Tang Dynasties are integrated into one, with Jin as the Zhengshuo. So the Later Jin Dynasty replaced the Later Tang Dynasty. The later Han Dynasty was water, which extinguished the fire of Jin and replaced it. In the Later Zhou Dynasty, the earth conquered the water and destroyed the Later Han Dynasty.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, wood was used to control earth. Take weeks. Later he was destroyed by Jin. The Kingdom of Jin naturally belongs to gold. Liao is also a metal. The Liao people were Khitan. The Khitans are iron-clad. Belongs to gold. In the traditional Liao Dynasty, the sun is hidden inside, and the fire is hidden in the metal, which breaks the "feng shui". Again, Yelu's treasure machine contained wood to help the fire, so the Liao Dynasty could not destroy the Song Dynasty.

The post-Mongolian Yuan Dynasty is taken from the classical "Heaven and Earth Qianyuan". Qian Nai Yang Jin is far superior to the Jin Dynasty. Meng people are still white, and their gold energy is at its peak. Therefore, the Jin Dynasty was destroyed and the Song Dynasty was destroyed, and the world was unified. Xixia, which belongs only to fire, is difficult to defeat. Fire can overcome metal, so Genghis Khan died at the hands of Xixia.

The Ming Dynasty is the glory of the sun and the moon. Zhu Huang belongs to fire, which can destroy the Great Yuan. Hou Jin was defeated by open fire and could not be defeated. Nurhachi's name is very bad. Red is the virtue of fire, which can defeat gold. Vitality is damaged. How could he be the opponent of Ming general Yuan Chonghuan? Later, Nurhachi was killed by the Ming army's artillery, and he died in triple fire.

After the Qing Dynasty established water virtue, it was only then that the Ming Dynasty was conquered and the Central Plains was settled.

The Republic of China destroyed the Qing Dynasty because of Tu De. The name of the Republic of China does not have the attributes of the Five Elements. So it all depends on the name of the founding president. Zhongshan refers to the central soil. The successor is Zhongzheng and also belongs to earth. Therefore, the Republic of China belongs to the soil.

Except for the relatively chaotic Five Dynasties, starting from the Sui Dynasty, the five elements in the dynasty names are the next dynasty overcoming the previous dynasty, such as the Tang Dynasty overcoming the Sui Dynasty.

This is especially true after the Song Dynasty. The wood of the Song Dynasty can overcome the soil of the Tang Dynasty (or the wood of the Song Dynasty can overcome the soil of the Later Zhou Dynasty, or the wood of the Later Liang Dynasty can overcome the soil of the Tang Dynasty), the wood of the Yuan Dynasty can overcome the wood of the Song Dynasty, the Minghuo can overcome the gold of the Yuan Dynasty, and the clear water can overcome the Mingfire. Earth also overcomes pure water. Is this accidental or inevitable, intentional or unintentional?

Dynasty names The Five Elements were born in the previous generation or were inhibited by the previous generation. They often have a relatively short history. For example, in the Sui Dynasty, water was inhibited by earth in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. , the Sui Dynasty only had a history of thirty-seven years; the Han Dynasty Shui Sheng Qin Mu only had a history of fourteen years. The Five Elements Theory says that being restrained and being angry with others is discouraging, and if you are discouraging, it will not last long.

The name of the next dynasty has five elements that overcome the previous dynasty. This dynasty is often more prosperous or long-lasting. For example, the Qin Dynasty defeated the Zhou Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty unified China; the Tang Dynasty defeated the Sui Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was the most powerful period in Chinese history; even the late Qing Dynasty was so corrupt that it lasted nearly three hundred years; the Republic of China defeated the Qing Dynasty, and the Chinese people Mi*** After the Republic of China, China moved towards modernity.

In fact, the conflict between the five elements in dynasty change not only refers to the name of the country, but also the name of the founder.
