The Historical Origin of the Word "Zhuzhai" in Zhuzhai Town, Shanghai

Before the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhuzhai area was called "White Crane Village". According to legend, white cranes often flew to rest.

After the "shame of Jingkang" in Song Dynasty, Kang Zhao Haoqi crossed the south of the Yangtze River and established the Southern Song Dynasty.

Among them, an official surnamed Qin and a junior official surnamed Zhai went south with the army.

The official surnamed Qin was appointed by the court as the administrative officer and the chief official of "Baihe Village" (now Zhuzhai area); The officer surnamed Zhai was ordered to help lead the troops to the station.

Their descendants will multiply.

By the end of Yuan Dynasty, Qin and Zhai were in great decline.
