According to the historical record "Xingyuan", during the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a town in the state of Lu (now Zhucheng in Shandong). A senior official from the state of Lu lived here and his people gathered food here.

Langya County: also known as Langya Country, Langya County, and Langya County. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Qi had Langya City, which is northwest of Langyatai in Jiaonan County, Shandong Province today. It is said that King Gou Jian of Yue moved his capital here. After the Qin Dynasty unified the six countries, Langya County was established in the territory and Langya County was attached. The administrative seat was in Langya (today's Xiahe), and the county's territory was the southeastern part of the Shandong Peninsula. During the Western Han Dynasty, Dongwu (today's cities in Shandong) was governed, and Langya Kingdom, Ke County and Zhuzihou Kingdom were added to the territory. It administered 51 counties, including Haiyang, Jimo, Laoshan, Jiao County, and Jiaonan, Yishui, Yingnan, Rizhao, Wulian, Ganyu (now Ganyu, Jiangsu) and Qingdao. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Langya Kingdom was reorganized into Kaiyang (now Linyi, Shandong). During the Jin Dynasty, it was renamed Langya Province. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Jiqiu (now Linyi, Shandong) was governed. During the Sui Dynasty, Langya County was restored. During the Tang Dynasty, it was abolished and its territory was returned to Jiaozhou and Zhucheng. At that time, it was under the jurisdiction of Zhucheng, Linyi and Jiaonan in the southeastern part of Shandong Province. In the early years of the Qianyuan Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty (Wuxu, 758 AD), it was deposed and later became Langya County of Yizhou. . From the Wei and Jin dynasties, neither Langyatai nor Langya County in the Qin Dynasty belonged to Langya County (country). Another Langya County is located in today's Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, and has been abandoned for more than a thousand years.
