The evolution of zhucheng place names

Zhucheng, as a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Weifang City in Shandong Province, is inconspicuous in the current land of China. However, in ancient China, it is an ancient city with a long history, compared with the ancient Dynasty Geqi County in Henan, the Yongcheng in Baoji in Shaanxi, the Pengcheng in Xuzhou in Jiangsu, the Longcheng in Taiyuan in Shanxi, the Chang'an in Xi'an in Shaanxi, the Yindu and Luoyang in Anyang in Henan, and so on, which are not inferior at all.

Zhucheng, the legend of the Xia Dynasty is the capital, the single word name "Zhu", the city site is located in the current Zhucheng City, Yugou Town Qiaozhuang Community South Corner, the name of the city "Kunyang", also known as "Jisun City", less than 15 kilometers away from the current Zhucheng City, later destroyed by the flood, the legend is that the peach blossom girl sent peach blossom water, the Kunyang City was destroyed.

Mencius said: "Shun was born in Zhufeng, moved to Negative Xia, and died in Mingtiao." Zhu Feng is located in the development zone on the north bank of the Wei River in Zhucheng City. I believe that the name of Zhu Feng in the ancient period is not called "Zhu Feng", but should be a single word "Feng", Yao Shunyu period, the village that can have a single word name is already very large and famous, and there are very few two words. Therefore, Emperor Shun was born in Zhu Feng, and should be born in the "Feng" land of "Zhu", which is the most correct interpretation.

There is a song that has been circulating in Zhucheng's Yugou to this day: "Peach Blossom Mountain, Peach Blossom Immortal in Peach Blossom Yuan; Xianju Eight Treasures Chaoyang Cave, Qibao can only be used by Immortals; If someone is disrespectful, he will rush to destroy Kunyang City in a rage." It is said that later someone entered the cave to steal the treasure, and the peach blossom fairy rushed to destroy Kunyang City in a rage. The ancient Peach Blossom Mountain is 1 km south of Kunyang City (Qiaozhuang), now known as Temple Mountain. Half a mile north of Kunyang City is the Wei river, and on the north bank of the Wei river, there is a high earth cliff on the bank of the river between Puqing and Jiangjiazhuang, which is the legendary Ge Po (the ancestral home of Zhuge Liang), where archaeology once appeared bronze swords, arrow clusters, Ge Qi and small jade.

After the Shang Dynasty moved to the current location of the ancient city of Zhucheng, it was called "Zhucheng" in the Spring and Autumn Period, renamed "Dongwu" in the Western Han Dynasty, changed to "Mizhou" in the late Tang Dynasty, and Su Dongpo wrote the famous "Mizhou Hunting" when he knew Mizhou: the old man chatted about the juvenile madness, the left led the yellow, the right Qingcang, the golden hat mink, the thousand riding rolls Pinggang. In order to repay the city with Taishou, shoot the tiger and see Sun Lang.

The drunken chest is still open. Sideburns, why bother! In the clouds, when will Feng Tang be sent? Will draw a bow like a full moon, look northwest, shoot the wolf

During the Ming Dynasty, it was changed to "Zhucheng", which has continued to this day.

Throughout history, although there have been many ancient cities in the land of China, as a small county town, "Zhucheng" can be used intermittently for more than 3,000 years, which is indeed a unique and unusual place. The world's largest duck-billed dragon dinosaur fossil was excavated in Zhucheng's dinosaur stream, so Zhucheng is also called "Dragon City". The continuation of the place names of Zhucheng may also have an inseparable relationship with "Shunsheng Zhufeng".
