And Li Fozi, the assassin of Jiaozhou, faced with the request of Yu Wenwen who was in Song Shou to meet, but refused to come on the grounds of illness, which must be strange.
According to various theories, Li Fozi is about sixty or seventy years old now, and he is indeed older, but this is not the real reason why he did not come to Song Shou for some reason, and there is only one truth, that is, Li Fozi has a ghost in his heart.
Li Fozi, the assassin of Jiaozhou, is actually the monarch of Wanchun Kingdom, of course, this is only self-proclaimed.
About 40 years ago, during the same year of the Liang State, at this time, Lingbiao was in the territory of the Liang State, and Jiaozhou was no exception.
Xiao Zhi, who didn't know anything except to collect money and scrape the land, fled to Guangzhou in embarrassment after suffering a few defeats.
After gaining a firm foothold, Li Ben proclaimed himself Emperor Yue, changed Yuan Tiande, fixed the capital of Long, and established the country name "Wanchun", that is, the so-called "Wanchun Country".
However, the Guangzhou Assassin of Liang then sent troops to quell the rebellion, the commander of the Liang army was the new Jiaozhou Assassin Yang Xuan, and the deputy commander was the new Jiaozhou Sima Chen Baxian, Li Ben couldn't beat the Liang army at all, and after suffering defeats one after another, he led the crowd to flee to the deep mountains and old forests.
A few years later, Li Ben died of illness, and it is said that his brother Li Tianbao led the remnants to continue to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to deal with the Liang army, and changed the name of the country to "Ye Neng", but the situation of these people gradually deteriorated.
Something happened to the Liang State, and the Qi general Hou Jing, who fled south to the Liang State, rebelled, led the rebels to attack Jiankang, and the garrisons around the country were ordered to serve the King of Qin, where there was a mood to manage the frontier thieves.
Chen Ba was first ordered to lead the main force of the Liang army back to Guangzhou, and then went north to King Qin, so that the remnants of the so-called "Wanchun Kingdom (Yeneng Kingdom)" escaped.
After the rebellion of Hou Jing, the national strength of the Liang State was declining, and the situation around Lingbiao was also a little unstable.
Zhao Guangfu and Li Tianbao's generals Li Fozi fought for power and profit, and the two forces fought infighting for many years, which was originally a good opportunity to break them one by one, but at that time, when Liang and Chen were alternating, Jiaozhou Assassin Shi was busy betting to protect his family, where was he in the mood to clear Wanchunguo.
Chen State was established, but the political situation was unstable, in the early years of Taijian, Guangzhou assassin Ouyang Su rebelled, Chen Jun patronized the rebellion, and had no spare strength to manage the Wanchun Kingdom near Jiaozhou, Li Fozi took this opportunity to fire and Zhao Guangfu, and finally grasped power.
The situation in the Central Plains has changed dramatically at this time, the Zhou State has attacked Qi, and the Chen State has also taken the opportunity to go on the Northern Expedition to recover Henan Prefecture, so naturally there is no energy to clear out the Wanchun State that is about to move.
After the destruction of the Qi State, the Zhou State and the Chen State fought for Huainan Prefecture and won a great victory, the Chen State lost all the land in Jiangbei, the national defense situation took a sharp turn for the worse, Chen Emperor Chen Xuan died depressed, and the successor Chen Shubao only knew that he was drunk and dreamed of death, where would he be in the Wanchun Kingdom that was dormant near the Lingbiaojiaozhou.
But he was very concerned about whether the Guangzhou Assassin wanted to rebel, and later Ma Jing, the Guangzhou Assassin who was quite popular with the locals, was suspected of rebellion and was attacked by the army sent by the imperial court.
And at this moment, Li Fozi saw the opportunity and suddenly attacked Jiaozhou Prefecture Zhilong Bian, drove away the Jiaozhou Assassin History of Chen State, and "recovered" the "national capital" of Wanchun State.
However, Li Fozi was scheming and did not openly break with Chen Guo under the banner of Wan Chunguo, but lowered his posture and sent people to Guangzhou to meet the new assassin Chen Fangqing to "clarify the misunderstanding".
He expressed his determination again, saying that he was willing to defend Jiaozhou for Dachen Town and atone for his sins.
This kind of nonsense is almost the same as coaxing children, but Chen Fangqing himself is difficult to protect, he succeeded Ma Jing as the assassin of Guangzhou, and naturally replaced Ma Jing as the emperor's fearful rebellion, and he was single-minded to protect himself.
More is better than less, let alone the action of mobilizing troops and horses, which can easily arouse suspicion, so Chen Fangqing could not have the heart to send troops to attack Li Fozi.
Li Fozi occupied Jiaozhou and formed a de facto control, and now lowering his posture is considered to be a step, Chen Fangqing pinched his nose and recognized it, and the attention of the imperial court was all on him, so he also pinched his nose and recognized it, so that Li Fozi became the assassin of Jiaozhou.
Li Fozi under the guise of a Jiaozhou assassination history, on the surface to Chen Guo subservient, in fact, in Jiaozhou to do his own thing, as the monarch of Wanchun State, this kind of trick of fishing in troubled waters is easy to see through, the reason why it can be played so far, is just that the Central Plains court has not been caught.
Yuwenwen set out from Panyu, inspected and pacified all parts of Lingbiao, and when he arrived in Anzhou Prefecture to govern Song Shou, he sent someone to summon Li Fozi and let the other party meet Song Shou, which was actually a temptation, and Li Fozi was really unwilling to come.
According to common sense, Li Fozi can't believe Yu Wenwen, who has just arrived, and he doesn't dare to come if he has doubts, which is understandable, but Yu Wenwen has been to many states and counties all the way, and he has not killed anyone, and his posture has been done very well.
The three wealthy families of Lingbiao have been surrendered, indicating that the new government has been recognized by them, and Yuwenwen was invited to Song Shou to meet Li Fozi when he arrived in Anzhou, the territory of the Ning family, if Li Fozi has a clear conscience, he will definitely come happily, and the result...
In his heart, he still claims to be the monarch of Wanchun Kingdom, not the Jiaozhou assassin of the Central Plains Imperial Court!
"Wan Chunguo, hum, Mu Monkey and crown!" Yu Wenwen sneered, this kind of trick of gathering a few minions to build a country and calling it lonely in a broken tile house makes people want to laugh when they see it.
"King, Wanchun Kingdom is not a problem, it is not difficult to defeat Li Fozi, the key is to deal with the aftermath, that is, to cure the root cause." Wang Meng said on the side, "Most of the Jiaozhou assassin history of the past dynasties has been looted too much, which is also the reason why some people follow every time the local heroes and strong people cause troubles." ”
"The widow thinks that Panyu is a place of smoke miasma compared to Jiankang, and Longbian is also a place of smoke miasma compared to Panyu.
"What the king said is very true, but the post of Jiaozhou assassin cannot be handed over to the local wealthy family hereditary, because Jiaozhou's maritime trade is even more developed than Guangzhou, as long as you have the heart to operate, you can accumulate huge wealth in a few years, which will only fuel the ambition of those wealthy families."
"Solve Li Fozi first, and then go to the imperial court, and then send a pro-people official with good conduct to be the assassin of Jiaozhou, and slowly change the local situation."
Yu Wenwen was discussing the matter of Jiaozhou with Wang Meng at this time, and Li Fozi was the inside story of the monarch of Wanchun Kingdom, and Wang Meng told him, because Wang Meng had been carefully planning when he was the governor of Chen State and the military governor of Lingbiaozhou County, and he wanted to find an opportunity to do something to Li Fozi.
Therefore, Wang Meng has carefully studied the situation in Jiaozhou, and now that the situation has changed, it is Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen who is about to make a move on Jiaozhou, so Wang Meng actively offered advice and suggestions to contribute to Yuwenwen's eradication of the "abscess" of Wanchunguo.
But what he has to do now is something else.
"King, Jiaozhou's climate is hot and abnormal, compared to Panyu, it is summer, it is easy to suffer from heat stroke or become seriously ill because of the water and soil, Wang has the courage to beg the king not to risk his life, and he does not have to personally lead the troops to Longbian!"
