方吉甫在淮南，聞吳少陽立，上下攜泮，自請徙壽州，以天子命招懷之，反間以撓其黨，會討王承宗，未及用。 While Jifu was in Huainan he heard that Wu Shaoyang had succeeded to power and that his followers were divided; he volunteered to transfer to Shouzhou to win him over by imperial command and use counterintelligence to divide his faction; but the campaign against Wang Chengzong intervened and the plan was never carried out.
