Chapter 201 The Story of Shih Tzu
According to legend, Xi Shi is the head of the four beauties in ancient China, surnamed Shi, named Yiguang, a native of Yue in the late Spring and Autumn Period, about 506 BC, born in Zhuji Ramie Village at the foot of Lama Mountain. His father chopped firewood and sold firewood, and his mother weaved cloth with raccoon yarn. In ancient times, there were two villages in the east and west of the surname of Laie Village, and the Yiguang family lived in the West Village, so it was called Xi Shi.
Legend has it that Xi Shi traveled morning and evening, and when Yue'er saw her beauty, she lost color and closed into the clouds. When the flowers saw her beauty, they were shy and hid into their bones. When the fish saw her beauty, they sank to the bottom of the water. When Yan'er saw her beauty, she fell to the ground in surprise. As the saying goes: "Closing the moon and shy flowers, sinking fish and falling geese", this idiom allusion, the source lies in this. It can be seen that Xi Shi was beautiful and moving, and his appearance fascinated thousands of men.
At the right time, the Wu-Vietnam War broke out. Taking advantage of the death of Yue Wang Yunchang and his son Gou Jian's just heir, he did not listen to the words of the famous generals Wu Zizi and Sun Wu, and hastily raised troops to attack Yue under the situation of insufficient preparation of military rations, met with the Yue army, and fought in Yu Li. Yue killed himself in front of the capital prisoner, and took advantage of the distraction of the Wu army to launch a fierce attack and defeat the Wu army. Wu Wang Lu was stabbed in the toe by the Vietnamese general Lou Gufu in the war, and died of serious injuries on the way to withdraw the army. ”
The husband sent the heir, kept in mind his father's dying will, vowed to avenge this revenge, and often ordered people to remind him. Whenever he passed by the palace gate, a waiter would open his throat and shout: "King Wu! The first king was killed by the Yue Kingdom, have you forgotten this revenge?" And so on and so forth, over and over again, and so on, but without change. In addition, he also ordered the son-in-law of Xiangguo Wu and the minister Bo Yao to step up the training of soldiers and horses in Chenguang, enrich the grain and grass, day after night, hard and diligent, only wait for the soldiers to be strong and strong, the food and salary are sufficient, and when the time is ripe, immediately send troops to attack the Yue country.
So strong for two years. Wu finally has enough soldiers and food, and the soldiers are fierce, and he has enough strength to crusade against Yue. The husband sent out a large army. Running all the way to the long distance, killing and running to the country, along the way, the army was mighty and powerful. It is indeed a division of tigers and wolves.
After the border sentinel of the Yue country found out about it, he immediately reported it to the country.
Fan Lidu, the doctor of the Yue Kingdom, trained in Wu for three years, and this time he was determined to take revenge, and he was fierce, and he advised to defend the city without fighting. Gou Jian, the king of Yue, was arrogant, did not accept this advice, insisted on going his own way, issued an order, and sent troops to fight with the Wu Kingdom. Fight head-on to the end.
Wu and Yue sent troops at the same time, and the two armies hurriedly marched to meet each other near the left side of Fujiao Mountain in the southwest of Taihu Lake. The scene can be described as: "Shocking, crying ghosts and gods." "Bloody.
As a result, Wu Jun drummed the courage of the tiger and the iron horse of Jin Ge. Swallow mountains and rivers. The Vietnamese soldiers were weak and strong, even the battle was defeated, and the troops were defeated at the foot of the mountain, and the Vietnamese army really did not come out of Fan Li's expectations. Ate a big defeat.
Fortunately, Goujian, the king of Yue, fled to Huiji Mountain with 5,000 remnants of the defeated army, and was besieged by the Wu army. His life is safe and sound.
Gou Jian was trapped by the Wu Legion, had no plan to get out, and felt remorseful, only hated that he didn't listen to Fan Li's words at the beginning, and insisted on going his own way.
Fan Li's mind flashed, and he came up with 10,000 last resorts to advise Gou Jian, asking for peace with Wu Guo, saying that if this plan is successful, he may be able to save his life and return to the country alive.
Gou Jian saw that the matter had come to this point, and he had no choice but to be forced to agree, and sent Wen Chong to see his husband in King Wu's camp and ask for peace.
The husband met with Wen Chong, and listened to his three-inch tongue, and his heart was very touched, and his ears softened, so he wanted to agree. Xiangguo Wu Zixu jumped out in time and insisted on resolutely opposing this matter. However, the minister Bo Ya had already been bribed by the literature, and tried his best to help him say good things, and tried his best to persuade his husband to make him agree to the request of Yue Guo.
Wu Wangfucha was kind, he actually listened to the slander, made sense of it, ignored Wu Zixu's opposition, agreed to the matter of Yue Guo seeking peace, and put forward a request in his heart, just in case, raising tigers for trouble, and put forward a request, specifying that he wanted to go to Wu in person, and lived in Wu for many years, and he had no consent from his husband, and from then on, he was not allowed to return to the country at will.
Wen Chong listened, asked for his resignation from Wu Wangfucha, immediately turned around, returned to Shanghuiji Mountain, and explained the matter to Goujian, the king of Yue.
When Gou Jian heard this, he would rather die than give in at first. Later, under the words of Fan Li, Mrs. Yue tried her best to persuade her, considering the rise and fall of the country and the great cause of the family, she finally made sense, changed her mind, and decided to leave the country of Yue and go to the country of Wu.
As the saying goes: "Huang Tian pays off." After ten years of life and reunion, ten years of lessons, he finally got what he wanted, destroyed the state of Wu, forced his husband to commit suicide, and made the country of Yue become a hegemon in the late Spring and Autumn period.
Among the various reasons for success, General Fan Li has made a lot of contributions. During the period when Gou Jian was banned from Wu State, he was already in Yue State, dedicated to the country, and did not wait idlely. It's just an idea to conceive, seeking to enhance their own national strength and weaken the national strength of Wu, and after knowing that Wu Wangfu is lascivious, he deliberately visited everywhere in the Yue country, looking for folk beauties, fortunately, the sky wants to do his good thing, and he found a few days, and actually visited Xi Shi for him. Zheng Dan and the two, all as beautiful as flowers, beautiful as fairies, were delighted, and discussed major matters with the two women, and asked the two of them to enter the country of Wu, and did everything possible to seduce and confuse the husband of Wu Wang, so that he was obsessed with women all day long, ignoring national politics, so as to defile the harem of Wu State, and try his best to sow discord in the ears of the husband, and disrupt his dynasty, so as to achieve the goal of restoring the country.
I don't want to, Fan Li only said this, the two women actually affirmed the righteousness, generously agreed, and resolutely decided to sacrifice themselves for the country.
Fan Li was overjoyed in his heart, and while he was overjoyed, he quietly sneaked into Wu and bribed Bo Yao to let him find an opportunity to dedicate these two beauties to Wu Wangfucha.
Bo Yao was greedy for money, accepted a bribe, and naturally agreed, and soon there was a move, attracting Fan Li and other three people, together to meet Wu Wangfucha, Jin presented two beauties.
The beauty of Xi Shi, the moon is shy of flowers, and the fish and geese are sunk. Wu Wangfu almost saw it, suddenly the soul was overwhelmed, poured in, sure enough, he fell into the beauty plan, spent a huge amount of money to build the palace for Xi Shi, after the palace was completed, he lived with her in the palace all day long, happy and happy, from then on, ignoring the government and politics, regardless of state affairs, resulting in increasingly chaotic state affairs, and increasingly sluggish.
After Xi Shi arrived in Wu State, he always remembered the important events entrusted by Fan Li before leaving, and single-mindedly messed up Wu Guozheng and filthy his harem, so that Wu Wangfu was addicted to wine day and night, ignoring the government and politics. At the same time, in the morning and evening, the bed whispers in his ears made the husband indulge in happiness, and often used some coquettish language to directly state the inconsistencies of Wu Guo's general Wu Zi's son-in-law, slander and slander, and divide the relationship between the two.
After the death of Wu's son-in-law, the advisor Sun Wu was disheartened, returned to the mountains and forests, and went into hiding.
At the same time, the Yue ** force is increasing day by day, day by day, so as to rejuvenate the Yue country, in the later stage of the Wu-Yue War, the Yue country finally defeated the Wu country by surprise, destroyed the Wu country, buried hidden dangers, and laid a solid foundation. And the person of the base pad, the key person, is none other than the beautiful Xi Shi. It can be seen from this that for the war between the two countries, Xi Shi ignored his own honor and shame, endured great pressure, paid heavy sacrifices, and finally won the peace of the people of the two countries. Her contribution to the country of Vietnam has also gone down in history and is well known to future generations.
The relationship between Xi Shi and Taihu Lake, the well-known legend and story of the residents of Taihu Lake, is about the love between Fan Li and Xi Shi. Although this story is full of grievances, it is also flavorful and fascinating.
Legend has it that after completing his mission, Xi Shi was thrown into the water on the king's boat on the way back to Yueguo, and finally sank in Taihu Lake and drowned. And this indulgence is not anywhere else, it is the left side of Penglai Island in Taihu Lake.
In the decades that followed, a legend gradually spread around the shores of Taihu Lake. It is said that the Shih Tzu stone sinks to the bottom of Taihu Lake, although the person is dead, sinking at the bottom of the lake, its soul still exists in the lake, the soul is not extinguished, and has turned into a soft boneless in the lake, pure as jade in the waves, and this silverfish is nothing else, it is the first live treasure in the three treasures of Taihu Lake, and the delicious whitebait of the three treasures of white shrimp and plum fish.
I don't know who first said this legend, in short, this legend has been circulating, and it has been passed down to this day, and it is still circulating in villages and towns along the shores of Taihu Lake, which is a magical and bizarre story.
What's even more amazing is that some people say that there are Xi Shi's "dressing table" and "water burial table" on Penglai Island, there is an immortal who lives on the island, and is moved by Fan Li's Xi Shi's true feelings, and deliberately uses spells to turn out. To put it more closely, there is a huge willow tree next to the "dresser" of the straight road, and I don't know what age it grew. The "water burial platform" is located in the place where Xi Shi sank into the lake, and there is a clump of reeds on the water not far from the island. The immortals on the island are powerful, the spells are strong, the changes are endless, the unfathomable, and there are a lot of fortunes for it, which is hidden on the island, if anyone has the courage and the ability to go to the island, he will make a fortune and get rich overnight, and become a rich man, a rich party.
