After Song Huizong succeeded to the throne, he not only expanded Fan Lou, but also renamed Fan Lou Fengle Building. However, people at that time were used to calling Fan Lou, so they would unconsciously call it Fan Lou.

In ancient times, ordinary buildings were one or two storeys, but after the expansion of Song Huizong, Fan Lou became three storeys.
