In fact, the reason why Shang Zhouwang's cruelty is talked about more is because of the blessing of Romance of the Gods. In The Romance of the Gods, Shang Zhouwang is described as a particularly cruel man who despises others. Because there are no books about Xia Jie, it seems that Xia Jie's cruelty is not widely known.
Xia Jie indulges in pleasure every day. For his own happiness, he bases his happiness on the sufferings of others, such as making a particularly hot pillar for people to walk on, so that he can feel the sufferings of others. Well, since he is a bad king, he naturally has his favorite queen, that is, his sister Xi.
Then someone left the pot on my sister, which is just as unreasonable as blaming da ji for the demise of the Shang Dynasty and praising the demise of the Zhou Dynasty. These countries perished because the emperors were greedy for pleasure and did not govern the country, not because they were addicted to women. This was the result, not the cause. Even if they are not addicted to women's sex, they will be addicted to others.
Just like today's parents like to say that their children are addicted to the internet, it is because their children have no one to accompany them, and nothing in their world attracts them except the internet. Parents blame the internet, and the two have the same effect.
Xia Jie was finally destroyed by Shang Tang.
