Historical legends of Tiefu town

According to relevant historical records, as early as the early summer, when Xi Zhong, the official of Yu Fenjiu, established the country for Bo, the ancestors settled here. In the year of Western Saturday, King Mu ordered the Xu leaders to rebuild the State of Xu and made it a monarch. At the same time, Ai Shan was named the mountain of Xu Guo, and the tripod of Ai was cast as the treasure of Xu Guo. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Rebecca's descendants built an ideal city on the east side of the stone head of Ai Cave, named Aiwangcheng, and the site is on today's Dongshigou Ren Xian Lake.

During the Warring States Period, Wu Zixu's father and brother were both killed by King Chu Ping. He fled to Wu and asked Wu Wangliao to take revenge against Chu. Wu Wangliao dragged on for a long time, and his cousin Ji Guang wanted to usurp the throne, so he secretly promised that if Wu Zixu could plot to assassinate Wu Wangliao and seize the throne for him, he would avenge Wu Zixu in dispatch troops. In order to get revenge, Wu hired a military commander, Zhuan Xu, and assassinated him with a fish-intestines sword, thus seizing the throne for the king of Wu, Jiguang and Lu. After Wu Wangliao was killed, his three sons all fled to Pidi. One of them, Qing Ji, fled to Aiwangcheng. Qing Ji has great strength and high martial arts. He recruited warriors and practiced military strength in Aiwangcheng, always looking for opportunities to revenge and rejuvenate the country. He Lv, the king of Wu, was on tenterhooks all day, asking Wu Zixu to find another warrior for him to assassinate Qing Ji.

Later, Wu Zixu found another warrior in the State of Wu. His name was Yao Li. If you want to stay and kill him, let him break his right arm, kill his wife, and then defect to cheat his trust. Qing Ji believed it, so he resigned as a teacher as a confidant, trained the army and reorganized the ships. Three months later, he set out to attack Wu. The warship sailed down Surabaya and left the bow side by side with Qing Ji. Caught off guard, armed with a spear to assassinate Qing Ji. This historical fact is the famous "Zhuan Xu stabbed to death Liao Wang" and "leaving Beijing to stab to death Qing Ji".

According to legend, after Qing Ji's death, ghosts have always existed, and there is often a black wind hovering on a cliff in Dongshigou, so the place where the black wind started is called "Black Wind Mouth". In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, foreign countries invaded from the East China Sea, and Emperor Taizong of Li Shimin personally expedition. Engage the enemy at the black tuyere of Dongshigou and be besieged. Li Xue, a young marshal of the Tang Dynasty, rescued the Tang Dynasty with three shots, which made Heifengkou famous throughout the ages. According to legend, Xu Shu, Liu Bei's strategist, came to Ai Shan after retiring from the Three Kingdoms period. Seeing the beautiful mountains and rivers here, he dug a hole in Dongshigou to cultivate his self-cultivation, leaving behind the legends of "imaginary numbers do not leave Ai" and "Xushu Cave".

By the eighth year of Wuding in the Eastern Wei Dynasty in the Southern and Northern Dynasties (AD 550), Emperor Wei Xiaojing had set up Ai Shan County around Ai Shan and built a new Ai City on the site of the ancient Ai Wangcheng. In the Tang Dynasty, the legendary Eight Immortals also came to Ai Shan for a party, leaving behind historical sites and legends such as gathering Sendai, Ren Xian Lake, Qixian Pool and Xiangu Pool. Aishan Temple and Grandma Temple, located at the top of the main peak in Ai Shan, are said to have been built in the Yuan Dynasty. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Liu Yong, the prime minister of the dynasty, came to Ai Shan to worship his ancestors and presided over the renovation of Grandma Temple. The site still exists today. In addition, Huayan Temple, a Buddhist temple built in the Tang Dynasty at the foot of Ai Shan, is also famous for a long time. When Huayan Temple was rebuilt in Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, Owen Wang, who lives in Aishanhou Village of Tiefu Town (formerly known as Zaolinzhuang), personally wrote an inscription and presided over the reconstruction. Now the stone tablet is still there, and the inscription is legible.
