In the five-year period (524), the Southern Liang Dynasty established Yongye County in most parts of the city today, and the county was ruled in the old county village of Jinzhu Town. In the third year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (583), the county was abandoned and changed to Yongye County. Once abandoned, the county was restored in the 16th year of Emperor Kai (596). In the fifth year of Wude (622), Yongye County was located in Nanyizhou, which was divided into three counties: Anyi (in the east of today's city), Longcheng (in the middle of today's city) and Yicheng (in the west of today's city), and the prefecture was located in Longcheng County.
