Long history

Shouyang mountain is located in xiangtanggou, Lianfeng Township, 34 kilometers southeast of Weiyuan County, with an altitude of 2186-2509 meters. It is named because it ranks first among the mountains and the sun shines first. At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, Boyi and Shuqi, the two sons of the monarch of Guzhu state (now Lulong County, Hebei Province), gave way to their successors in Shouyang mountain. They lived together until the Zhou Dynasty. Later, they heard that King Wu had killed Zhou and kowtowed to Ma Jianyin. Because King Wu didn't listen, he went west to Shouyang mountain and ate Wei. Later, he starved to death in Shouyang mountain and became a famous mountain in Longyou. The county was named Shouyang County when it was built in Qin and Han Dynasties.

Shouyang mountain and Lianfeng mountain echo each other from afar, with lofty mountains and lush ancient pines. Shouyang mountain in Weiyuan was first seen in the west of Boyi and Shuqi, as Chuang Tzu said. King Wu of Zhou attacked Yin and said, "I heard about the ancient scholars, but I still evaded their responsibilities when they were governed. I don't want to survive in troubled times. Today, it's dark, and Zhou De is declining. It's not inferior to Zhou Yi to paint me. I went north to Shouyang mountain with my two sons clean, so I died of hunger. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Jia (Ban Zhao), a scholar of classical literature, annotated you Tong Fu, saying that Yi Qi was hungry in Shouyang mountain and in Shouyang in Longxi. Weiyuan County was established in the late Qin Dynasty and early Han Dynasty. It was named Shouyang County, under the jurisdiction of Longxi County. Until the 17th year of Emperor Wen of the Western Wei Dynasty (551 AD), it was renamed Weiyuan County. According to this, Shouyang mountain in Weiyuan got its name first and has a long history. It collected ferns for Yi Qi people to live in seclusion until it starved to death in Shouyang mountain and became a famous mountain in Longyou.
