From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Southern and Northern Dynasties:
Changxing was called the Great Wall in ancient times. During the Spring and Autumn Period (5 14-495), during the hegemony of the State of Wu, King He Lu of Wu sent his brother-in-law to build a city in the southeast of Luocheng. Because the city is long and narrow, it is named the Great Wall, which has a history of more than 2,500 years. After that, the more destroyed by Chu, the more Chu died. In the 26th year of Qin Shihuang (22 1), it was divided into 36 counties, belonging to Huiji County. In Han Dynasty, Changxing belonged to Yangzhou, Huiji, Xing Wu and other counties. During the Three Kingdoms period, the Dongwu general Monroe stationed troops in Lushan Mountain. In 282 AD (the third year of Jin Taikang), it broke away from Wucheng County and built Great Wall County. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, a founding king, Chen Baxian, walked out of Changxing. In 557, Jiankang (now Nanjing), its capital, was named Chen. Changxing belonged to Xing Wu County at that time.

Yan Zhenqing, Zhang Wengui, Du Mu and others from Huzhou visited to taste tea. Poets Jiao Ran, Bai Juyi and Su Shi, the magistrate king of Huzhou in the Song Dynasty, all came here to drink tea and compose poems. In the second year of Kaiping in the Five Dynasties (908), Changcheng County in Wang Gai was named Changxing County, and the county name has been used ever since.
