Zicheng was built in Wu Huanglong for three years (231) and has a history of more than 17 years. The circumference of Zicheng is two miles and ten paces, and the height and thickness are one foot and two feet, covering an area of 75, square meters. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, due to the construction of Luocheng outside Zicheng, the original city was renamed Zicheng (in addition, catalpa trees were planted all around Zicheng, which was previously called Zicheng and later changed into Zicheng). From the Three Kingdoms to the Qing Dynasty, Zicheng was the seat of Jiaxing (Xiuzhou) government or military administration. According to Guangxu's "Records of Jiaxing", there were Li Wei at the main entrance of the sub-wall in the Yuan Dynasty, and buildings such as Tianwang Hall and Arrow Tower were built on the Song Dynasty. Zicheng Tower was rebuilt in Guangxu thirty-four years (198). It is a three-story building with brick and wood structure, with double eaves resting on the top of the mountain, fancy roofs, four small ridges paved with water, a wishful head, carved faucets and cornices, which has the characteristics of ancient Chinese terraces. There are arrow stacks in the east of the city, which are still well preserved. The existing Zicheng and Qiaolou were rebuilt in 199, with a length of about 1 meters. The Huan wall is of masonry structure, and there is a crib on the city, a lower gate, a wooden door, and a stone lion guarding the door. Looking into the city, you can see the scenery of Hecheng and the misty rain of Nanhu.

In the old days, there was a brocade belt bridge outside Yanzi Town, and catalpa trees were planted beside the river, with beautiful scenery. Liu Yuxi in the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Xian in the Song Dynasty, Shen Kuo, Lu Menglao, etc. all have well-known masterpieces. Lu Meng's poem "Piyun Pavilion" says: "The corner of the city sees the sea, and the curtain of the spring breeze is warm and floating. Clouds and smoke break in the vast river, and there are a cluster of 1, towers. "

Hearing Palace was built in Zicheng during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. In June 186, the troops of Li Xiucheng, the loyal king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, sent Wang Chen Bingwen and Chen Kunshu, the protector of the king, to capture Jiaxing. In the following year, Chen Bingwen built a large-scale construction project, and it was not completed when Jiaxing was captured by Pan Dingxin and Cheng Xueqi in 1864. This shows that its project is huge. In the 198s, eight murals of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were found in the Yao family's old house on Zhongshan Road. Zicheng, according to legend, was founded in the period of Wu Huanglong in the Three Kingdoms (229-231) and has a history of more than 1,7 years. The sub-city covers an area of 75, square meters, with a circumference of two miles and ten steps, and its height and thickness are all one foot and two feet. From the Three Kingdoms to the Qing Dynasty, Jiaxing (Xiuzhou) was ruled by the government or the army. There are two theories about the origin of Zicheng. One is that a big city was built outside the original city in the late Tang Dynasty, so the original city was renamed Zicheng; On the other hand, the original city was surrounded by catalpa trees, so it was called "Zicheng" and later evolved into "Zicheng". According to Guangxu's "Jiaxing Fuzhi", there were Li Wei at the main entrance of Zicheng in Yuan Dynasty, and Tiantan and Arrow Tower were built on the city in Song Dynasty. Up to modern times, the city wall has been rebuilt, leaving only the rebuilt watchtower and the east side wall in the 34th year of Guangxu (198). Sub-city is open after reconstruction. After the restoration, the sub-city is more than 1 meters long, and the pagoda is a three-story building with brick and wood structure, with double eaves and upturned corners, which is magnificent and spectacular. The walls are of masonry structure, with cribs on the city, gates under it, and stone lions guarding the door. When you climb the building, you can see the scenery of Hecheng and the misty rain of Nanhu. In the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the 7-storey Listening Palace was built in Zicheng. On April 26th, the tenth year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (186), Li Xiucheng, a loyal king of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Chen Bingwen captured Jiaxing. In the twelfth year, Chen Bingwen Jinfeng Listening Wang Nai built a large-scale building to build the Listening Palace. In February of the third year of Tongzhi, the Qing army occupied Jiaxing. After the Qing army Huai army entered the city, it plundered and demolished houses, and the doors and windows of the Wangfu house were sold. The post-4-entry building caught fire in June of Guangxu 28. In 1914, the 21st Regiment barracks of Zhejiang Army was built in Zicheng, commonly known as Xidaying. This is adjacent to the military barracks or military units. Xidaying was destroyed by Japanese artillery fire in November 1937. In July of the following year, the enemy and puppet troops built the "appeasement headquarters barracks" here. By 1942, there were more than 2 barracks in Zicheng, all Japanese-style buildings. In 1946, Jiang Jingguo set up "Jiaxing Youth Middle School specially set up by the Reserve Cadre Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense" here. The name of this middle school is very long and special; The students are also "special". They are all demobilized soldiers of the Youth Army and trained as reserve cadres of the Kuomintang. Most of these young people are full of vigor and vitality. Under the influence of progressive ideas, many people are dissatisfied with the corrupt politics of the Kuomintang. In January 1949, "Youth China" was dissolved. In February, the Kuomintang pre-cadre corps left Nanjing for Jiaxing and was stationed in Dongdaying and Xidaying. Some officers and students of "Youth Middle School" were also incorporated into the "Corps".
