As Lý Trường Nhân, Jiaozhou's governor, died in final days of the Liu Song dynasty, Lý Thúc Hiến requested the Liu Song to be appointed as Trường Nhân's successor. The Liu Song rejected Thúc Hiến's request and appointed Thẩm Hoán, the governor of Nanhai Commandery, as the new governor of Jiaozhou, while Thúc Hiến was assigned to govern Vũ Bình and Tân Xương. However, with strong support from the local population, Thúc Hiến deployed troops throughout the region, preventing Thẩm Hoán from assuming office in Jiaozhou. As a result, Thẩm Hoán was forced to remain in Uất Lâm during the turbulent final days of the Liu Song dynasty, where he eventually died. Summer – The Liu Song dynasty ends and the Southern Qi dynasty begins in southern China. Emperor Shun Di is forced to abandon the throne and Qi Gao Di becomes the first ruler of Southern Qi. Later former Emperor Shun and empress Wang Zhenfeng are killed by the imperial guard, near the vicinity of the capital Jiankang.
